GTA V has sold 190 million copies

After more than a decade, Rockstar Games is finally set to show off Grand Theft Auto VI next month. This has not stopped GTA V from continuing to sell like hotcakes however, with the game now having surpassed 190 million copies.

As part of the company’s most recent fiscal report, Take-Two Interactive released updated sales stats for both GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2. As shared by industry analyst ‘DomsPlaying’ Grand Theft auto V has sold-in an additional 5 million copies since last quarter, bringing the total number of units sold to a staggering 190 million.

While perhaps not quite as explosive as GTA, Red Dead Redemption 2 continues to truck along, selling 2 million more copies since last quarter, bringing its total units sold to 57 million – just 1 million copies shy of becoming the 7th best-selling game of all time.

With GTA VI finally set to be revealed next month, it will be interesting to see whether future sales of V will finally begin to slow down. Regardless, it is safe to say that when all is said and done the 2013 title will have surpassed 200 million copies – ensuring its 2nd place on the best-seller podium for years to come.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
