Summary

  • Rockstar Games’ Red Dead Redemption 2 is now the sixth best-selling video game ever, with 77 million copies sold

  • The Red Dead franchise has sold over 104 million units globally

Rockstar Games‘ Red Dead Redemption 2 is officially the sixth best-selling video game of all time, selling 77 million copies.

Rockstar parent company Take-Two Interactive confirmed the news in their recent earnings, adding that the sequel sold four million units the past quarter. RDR 2 was also named as the best-selling title of the past seven years in the United States based on dollar sales, with the franchise selling more than 104 million units worldwide.

Dexerto notes that RDR 2 overtakes Pokémon Red/Blue/Yellow to take the No. 6 spot. The game is behind Mario Kart 8/Deluxe, Ark: Survival Evolved, Wii Sports, Grand Theft Auto V and Minecraft.

It surpassed the lifetime sales of Red Dead Redemption in just two weeks, was critically and commercially acclaimed and went on to take homeover 175 Game of the Year awards.
