We knew that GTA V had a great opening day and was the top seller for the month of September. Now, Take Two has revealed a more specific number of units sold: 29 million.

According to a press release detailing the financials, those outstanding sales bolstered Take Two's quarterly results, bringing second-quarter (July through September) net revenue to $1.27 billion. 

It's noteworthy that GTA V hit sales like that in a little over a month, while its predecessor tookyears to move 25 million units – a good sign for months and years ahead. The press release also reaffirms the fact that the company still considers GTA V and GTA Online to be separate products, describing the latter as "the dynamic and persistent online game, which is free with every copy of Grand Theft Auto V."

that's HUUUUUGE!!!

Undertracked here?

shipped 29 million not sold..but I doubt 7 million copies are at shelves right now. So is VGC undertracking this game

Well, it is the headline of the other site but i can still change it even if shipped is sold in the economy at least for the units  the retailers will easily sell i the future an don't come back because of some agreements.

holy fuck! i mean fucking WOW!! if this released on PC and next gen consoles it just might hit 40 million units. i mean holy fuck! 29 million in just 6 fucking weeks and we still have the holiday season coming up. holy fuck!

Just insane.

Will easily top 35m lifetime if not more.

maybe it is selling very well digitally?

I spit out my drink when I saw the news release from TTWO's earnings release....its not even Christmas yet! 160 million shipped consoles between ps3 and xbox, you are talking about 18% of the userbase, massive indeed.

You know someone called me out when i made that prediction so i guess im not really surprised.
