Grand Theft Auto The Trilogy by Take-Two Interactive Software Inc is seen for sale in a store in Manhattan, New York City, U.S., February 7, 2022.
Take-Two, slated to report earnings later in the day, did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.
The game's predecessor, "GTA V", has garnered around $7.68 billion in sales since its launch in 2013 and ranks among one of the most profitable titles ever.
Take-Two was on track to add nearly $2 billion to its market value, based on the premarket share price of $148.6.
The stock has risen by nearly a third this year, partly due to growing expectations of a reveal for the "GTA VI".
