Game of the decade!!!
I believe it. This will likely be the industry's biggest game launch to date.
Only way it wouldn't be number one is due to the launch of GTA5 happening at the end of the 7th generation with a higher userbase, while GTA6 will be launching more in the middle of the current generation.
What will most likely make up for it will be the increase in cost of the base game. GTA V launched at $60 and GTA VI will no doubt launch at $70. I also imagine there will be a huge influx in console sales leading up to the launch. PS5 I think in particular should be close to PS3 numbers by the time the game launches, if not reach those numbers.
And when you say 'industry' you mean entertainment as a whole right? This will be bigger than any film can dream.
