Take-Two Revealed Updated Sales Figures of GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2

Although this month’s focus is largely on GTA 6, the most anticipated game of the year set to launch next week, Take-Two Interactive’s latest financial report reveals updated sales figures for Rockstar Games’ previous titles and provides additional details.

Specifically, the new report for the second quarter of the 2027 fiscal year confirms that GTA 5 sales have reached 235 million copies, making it the third best-selling game in history, behind only Minecraft and Tetris. Meanwhile, total sales for the series have hit 480 million copies. As for Red Dead Redemption 2, the game has sold 89 million copies, with total franchise sales reaching 118 million copies.

For comparison, Take-Two's financial report in August revealed that GTA 5 sold 230 million copies, while Red Dead Redemption 2 reached 87 million copies. A few months later, these games continue to sell, and it will be interesting to see how the sales dynamics change after the release of GTA 6.

By the way, speaking of it, Take-Two Interactive’s CEO Strauss Zelnick made some interesting statements. He confirmed that the development of GTA 6 is complete and also commented on the game's sales. According to him, they have been "far beyond our expectations," although no official figures were disclosed. According to Sensor Tower, as of November 3, GTA 6 had sold 7.71 million copies worldwide, generating potential revenue of $751 million.
