Xbox has pushed back on a report that *Grand Theft Auto 6* preorders are heavily skewed toward PlayStation 5 and raising concerns for its console business. The company said Xbox’s share of preorders matches its share of the console market, while a GameSpot report characterized an Xbox executive as unconcerned about early sales.
Separately, reports linked demand surrounding Rockstar Games’ release to higher PlayStation 5 Pro prices and said shortages of the upgraded console could continue into 2027. Specific preorder figures, market-share data and details about the reported shortages were not disclosed in the reports’ headlines.
