Description

Grand Theft Auto V (GTA 5) was released in 2013 by Rockstar Games as the latest version in the Grand Theft Auto franchise. Even though it was released almost a decade ago, the game still holds a massive fanbase with passion and loyalty. Recently, the game just hit its new record. Recently, Rockstar’s parent company, Take-Two has announced the new milestone of this action game with over 170 million units sold worldwide. In total, the whole franchise has sold more than 385 million units. These include the first version from 1997 to the latest one, GTA 5 in 2013. This news was published during Take-Two’s quarterly earnings call. In the last report, Take-Two revealed that the sales almost reached 170 million. In a quarter, the game sold around 5 million copies.

It broke another record and remains one of the most successful game series in history. GTA 5 earned Take-Two $1 billion in retail sales the fastest as an entertainment release. The impact of this franchise is shown through its loyal, devoted fans and players all around the world. Moreover, the upcoming GTA 6 is also very anticipated by the fans and critics. It is expected to be another hit from Rockstar once released.

So far, the game is available for several consoles and computers including PC, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, PS4, and Xbox One. It means that everyone can play this game no matter what console he is using. The game's multiplayer mode, GTA Online, is still performing well and bringing in more revenue. This is significant to the development of this franchise as GTA 5 sales are already slowing down within the recent years. Despite its popularity and appealing game play, the game has stayed quite the same for almost a decade and several players find it quite old-fashioned while being compared to games nowadays with fascinating story and visual effects.

The upcoming GTA 6 might change the game. Previously, the photos and information about this game was leaked online by a 17-year-old hacker. Many details about the game were revealed in a GTA forum. However, Take-Two has taken action by requesting this forum to take these details off their website and the hacker was also sent to a local youth detention center. However, its release date is not confirmed yet but might not arrive until 2024 or 2025.
