A fiscal 2023 report from Take-Two Interactive, parent company of Rockstar, 2K, Private Division and Zynga, shows that revenue GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2 They are still doing pretty well even though they were released years ago. In fact, the popularity that GTA V enjoys these days means that many people do not remember that it is actually a game from the seventh generation of consoles (PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360), which later made its way to the eighth and ninth, except for PC, where it’s not uncommon to find it one of the best-selling titles on Steam even today.

sales GTA V They have remained strong over the years, leading to their appearance on three different generations of consoles. A Rockstar title has sold about 180 million copies to date, an exorbitant amount that others can only dream of, not only among “small video games”, but also among sagas that have great prestige both among the professional press and the public. Obviously, the number of copies sold isn’t even remotely a good indicator of whether a video game is good or not, but it’s still a business and it’s clear that GTA V continues to do well commercially despite its seniority.

But while GTA V remains a money machine for Take-Two Interactive, its successful inertia is turning into a gigantic push for its sequel, around which there are already enormous expectations not only for its possible sales, but also for the quality of the game. itself has evolved since the third numbered installment of the GTA saga to establish itself on the Olympus of video games.

from his side, red dead redemption 2which was launched in the fourth quarter of 2018, approx 53 million copies. Granted, the amount sold isn’t as impressive as GTA V, but it’s still very good. Along with its predecessor, the Red Dead Redemption saga has sold nearly 75 million copies, while GTA V has amassed 180 million of the roughly 400 million units the saga has sold throughout its history.

Poorer are the sales of the GTA Trilogy, which aimed to relaunch the great classics of the saga and ended up writing one of the most regrettable pages in the history of Rockstar. The compilation has sold about ten million copies so far, with just under a million in the last quarter of the fiscal year. Take-Two Interactive has confirmed that it is planning to release a mobile version of the compilation, though without a specific release date for now.

As we can see, the economic situation of Take-Two Interactive seems to be quite good on a general level. It can also be verified in the report thatThe long-defunct NBA 2K basketball saga has sold over a hundred million copieswhile Borderlands has sold over 80 million units in total and BioShock is approaching 42 million.
