Will GTA 6 make people buy new consoles?

Probably, yes — GTA 6 is likely to encourage some people to buy new consoles, especially since it’s expected to launch on current-gen consoles first and PC later. That means players on older hardware who want to play at release would need a PS5 or Xbox Series X/S, and some PC-first players may also consider a console to get it sooner.

That said, it’s not something you can state as a certainty. Whether it will drive significant new console sales is still speculative and depends on factors like its final release timing, platform availability, price, and how many people decide to upgrade anyway. Also, exact launch details can change, so it’s worth checking official Rockstar and platform announcements for the latest information.
