GTA 5 has shipped over 60M units worldwide – Take Two

4.5
Grand Theft Auto is still one of the biggest gaming franchises in the world.

Publisher Take-Two Interactive revealed today that developer Rockstar Games has shipped more than 60 million copies of Grand Theft Auto V across all platforms. That does not mean consumers have bought 60 million copies — instead, this figure refers to how many GTA V units retailers have ordered in total. With the possible exception of the military first-person shooter Call of Duty, no gaming franchise regularly reaches megahit status like Grand Theft Auto. The open-world crime originally debuted in 2013, but Rockstar was able to keep demand high by releasing an updated version for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles in late 2014 and the PC in April. PC and console gaming is a business worth tens of billions of dollars, and a lot of that cash goes to biggest blockbuster hits.

The company went on to say that GTA was its biggest contributor to its digital revenues as well.
