Despite being over a decade old, *Grand Theft Auto 5* (GTA 5) continues to impress with sales of 5 million copies in the last three months alone. Since its debut in September 2013, GTA 5 has cemented its place as one of the best-selling games ever. Meanwhile, *Red Dead Redemption 2* (RDR2) isn't far behind, with sales reaching 70 million copies and an increase of 3 million in the last quarter. RDR2 hit the market in October 2018 and remains a powerhouse in the gaming industry.
A significant contributor to GTA 5's enduring success is its multiplayer component, *GTA Online*. Regular updates, such as the *Agents of Sabotage* release in December 2024, keep the community active and engaged. Take-Two's commitment to fresh content ensures that players remain hooked on the game.
Looking ahead, fans have much to anticipate. *Grand Theft Auto 6* (GTA 6) is slated for a fall 2025 release, promising to be one of the most eagerly awaited games in history. Take-Two's recent financial presentation reaffirmed this timeline. Additionally, *Mafia: The Old Country* is set to launch in the summer, with *Borderlands 4* expected later in the year, though specific release dates for the latter remain undisclosed.
If you're worried about potential delays for GTA 6, consider taking a break. The game is still on track for its fall 2025 debut, as mentioned in Take-Two's latest financial presentation. Strauss Zelnick, CEO of Take-Two, emphasized that while Rockstar Games is taking a meticulous approach to development, which may require extra time, the company's history with projects like GTA 5 and RDR2 suggests that the wait will be worthwhile. Additionally, the confirmation of *Borderlands 4* for release later this year adds to the excitement, even if exact dates have not been set yet.
