All game delays have their silver linings, and it looks like Grand Theft Auto VI‘s might just be the fact that it’s given a lot of players more time to experience GTA V.
Earlier today, Rockstar parent company Take-Two Interactive held its quarterly investor presentation, during which it revealed that the critically-acclaimed action-adventure game has now reached 215 million copies sold. Back in February, that number–while still extremely high–was around 210 million. This means that in the last three months, the 12-year-old game has sold a staggering five million additional copies. To put that into perspective, Monster Hunter Wilds is currently 2025’s best-selling game and sits at about 10 million units sold after being released back in February. Though GTA V still has quite a ways to go if it wants to take down the top two best-selling video games of all time, this is still an incredibly impressive feat.
This investor presentation marks the first one held by Take-Two Interactive since Grand Theft Auto VI’s delay. Despite this setback, the company repeatedly emphasized its upcoming slate of games for 2025–Borderlands 4 and Mafia: The Old Country being the most notable–and the gaming industry’s projected growth.
