Take2, one of the most established and large companies in the gaming industry, shared the current sales figures of GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2 in a statement. In announcing its financial reports, the company announced that GTA V sales were a huge success, exceeding 150 million.
Take2 releases new statement on GTA V sales figures
GTA V, which has been announced as coming to the next generation of consoles later this year, seems to continue this success in sales figures with the surpass of three generations. Finally, in November, it was announced that the GTA V game had knocked over 135 million. So the game continued to be successful, selling more than 15 million copies over an eight-month period. Considering that even the newly released games have not reached these figures in such a long time, the fact that a game eight years after its release date still sells in this way is also an indication of why Rockstar Games and Take2 are taking it so slowly for the new game. Moreover, it is possible to say that the earnings from GTA Online are much higher than the sales figure.
The total sales figure of the GTA series has surpassed 350 million. On the other hand, when we look at the sales figure of Red Dead Redemption 2, another ambitious game of the company, we see that it has surpassed 38 million. Red Dead Redemption 2 sales were announced last November at 35 million. In other words, Red Dead Redemption 2, released in 2018, managed to sell another 3 million units over an eight-month period. The Red Dead Redemption series has surpassed 60 million sales with these new figures.
When we look at the NBA 2K series, it was announced that the total sales of the series exceeded 112 million, although no clear figure was given this time regarding the last game. Sales figures for the Borderlands series, signed by Gearbox Interactive, were a huge success, surpassing 71 million, while Borderlands 2 had 25 million and Borderlands 3 had 13 million. The Bioshock series has sold 38 million copies, Sid Meier’s Civilization has 58 million, kerbal space program has five million and finally The Outer Worlds has sold four million.
