GTA V continues to dominate with 185 million copies sold

10 years on from its initial release and GTA V is still selling like hotcakes, with millions of new players purchasing the game every single Quarter. Take-Two Interactive have now shared their latest fiscal report, revealing that – as expected – GTA V has shifted another 5 million copies, bringing the total sales to over 185 million.

As part of Take-Two Interactive’s most recent fiscal earnings report the holding company shared updated sales figures on some of its biggest titles – namely GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2.

With 5 million additional sales since the last Quarter, GTA V is now officially at 185 million copies sold-in. This helps the game to maintain its position as the second-best selling game of all time (only behind Minecraft). Interestingly, the publisher offered a very minor update on the much-anticipated GTA VI, saying “active development on the next entry in the Grand Theft Auto Series is well underway.”

Shifting to Rockstar Games’ other big IP, the company revealed that Red Dead Redemption 2 has managed to sell an additional 2 million units this Quarter (down from 3 million), putting the 2018 title at over 55 million copies sold – an impressive figure considering the fact that there is yet to be a PS5 / Xbox Series X|S version of the game released.

With how many units GTA V in particular continues to sell, it will be interesting to see just how long it will take for the title to hit 200 million copies. It seems like only a matter of time.
