The GTA series blazes past the 420 million sales mark, as Rockstar gets ready to unleash ST-Ds on Los Santos

Good news, people who like mildly funny numbers (it’s me, I’m people), the GTA series has now surpassed the 420 million mark in terms of total sales, and Take-Two has revealed that to us just as Rockstar is about make ST-Ds available to the GTA Online masses.

Yup, we all might have recovered from the GTA 6 mania that gripped the world at the tail end of last year, when that trailer arrived in our lives, got us thinking about Tom Petty, and brought out the amateur detective in almost everyone, but GTA things are still happening in Los Santos. And the series’ sales numbers are also continuing to push the boundaries of what’s comprehensible, having now reached a value that the goth kids from your college would no doubt appreciate.

As part of its latest earnings call, the aftermath of which saw Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick tell IGN that Rockstar’s parent company has “no current plans” regarding layoffs, it shared some tastefully-assembled presentation slides featuring the latest sales numbers for the biggest titles in its portfolio. As expected, GTA’s leading the way, having now “sold-in over 420 million units”, with GTA 5 alone rapidly lurching towards the 200 million sales mark.

In GTA Online, as in life, cash is king. You can't do much in Rockstar's vast online multiplayer crime game without a stack of Benjamins, so any opportunity to get your hands on free GTA Online money is worth jumping on immediately. To celebrate the 2024 Lunar New Year, you can grab a selection of rewards this week, including two new masks and a stack of cash.

This has all come about because Microsoft has stopped providing security updates for Windows 7, 8, and 8.1, leaving them vulnerable and open to attacks.

Steam recently pulled support for every Windows OS below 10, meaning some of the best PC games can now only be played on the most recent Microsoft operating systems. This move appears to be the catalyst for many other game publishers, such as Rockstar, also ending support, signaling a long overdue update for the GTA 5 system requirements.
