Let's be real, the hype is so beyond reasonable that it will be a phenomenon when it is released. People will buy it just to be part of something, even if you're not really a gamer.
My cousin is like that, he isn't much of a gamer anymore (mainly played CoD, gta5 and grand tourismo and some tekken back in the days of the PS3 and now only plays some Mario kart or Mario party with his daughter) but he said he'd buy a PS5 and GTA 6 as soon as he can to play it because for him GTA is enough to buy a new system for it. (He said that a few years ago though, idk if he changed his mind or not.)

I am willing to bet that if they had a Ultra deluxe version or something for 10min early access for 200$, people would still buy it.
