And that’s not even counting downloads
Grand Theft Auto Vhas sold over 5 million copies in the UK.
The figures are confirmed by chart companyGfK Chart-Trackand don’t even include download sales (meaning the squillions of recent Steam purchases haven’t been counted here).
GTA Vgrossed $1bn within just three days of release and became the UK’s best selling game when it hit PS4 and Xbox One in November last year. It sold 2.25m copies in Britain in just five days, smashing the previous record sent byCall of Duty: Black Ops.
In his review, Jim Sterling said that “Grand Theft Auto Vis both a reflective and deflective game, diving into the heart of theGTAseries with more than a few subtle things to say about itself.”
The fact it’s still charting means it’s still selling, but do you think those sales represent re-purchases (i.e. someone buying a new-gen copy in place of their old-gen one) or are there still people out there who have yet to play it? And ifyouhaven’t yet picked upGTA V, what’s stopping you?
