Take-Two has revealed the sales of GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2

Grand Theft Auto V (GTA V) continues to defy expectations, selling an impressive 5 million copies in the past three months—a remarkable feat for a game released over a decade ago (September 2013). Its enduring popularity solidifies its position as one of history's best-selling video games.

Red Dead Redemption 2 (RDR2), released in October 2018, also shows strong sales momentum, adding 3 million units to its already substantial 70 million copy total in the last quarter.

The ongoing success of GTA Online, GTA V's consistently updated multiplayer component, is a key factor in this sustained performance. Take-Two Interactive's commitment to regular content updates, such as the December 2024 release of "Agents of Sabotage," keeps players engaged and returning.

Looking ahead, Take-Two has confirmed a Fall 2025 release for the highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto VI. Further bolstering their upcoming lineup, Mafia: The Old Country is slated for a Summer release, and Borderlands 4 is expected later in the year.

While concerns about potential delays for Grand Theft Auto VI are understandable, Take-Two's recent financial report reaffirmed its Fall 2025 release window. Similarly, Borderlands 4's release in 2025 has been confirmed, although specific dates remain unannounced.

Take-Two CEO, Strauss Zelnick, acknowledged Rockstar Games' meticulous development approach, noting that this may necessitate additional time, mirroring the development cycles of previous titles like GTA V and RDR2. Despite this acknowledgment, the Fall release window for GTA VI remains in place.
