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 place 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 sustained success of GTA V is significantly boosted by GTA Online, its consistently updated multiplayer component. Take-Two Interactive's commitment to ongoing content, such as the December 2024 Agents of Sabotage update, 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 releases, Mafia: The Old Country is slated for a summer launch, 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 this year has been confirmed, although specific dates remain unannounced.

Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick acknowledged Rockstar Games' meticulous development approach, suggesting that additional time may be needed, mirroring the development cycles of previous titles like GTA V and RDR2. Despite this cautious approach, the fall 2025 release window for GTA VI remains.
