Red Dead Redemption 2 has now sold over 89 million copies worldwide, according to RockstarINTEL's report on Take-Two Interactive's Q2 2027 earnings call. That keeps it firmly in the top three best-selling games ever.
The latest numbers
Take-Two reported its results on Monday morning, and the sales data covered GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2 among other titles.
- Copies sold: Around 2 million between August and October.
- Total: Over 89 million worldwide, up from 87 million at the last count in August.
- Red Dead series: Nearly 118 million copies, up from 117 million three months ago.
The quarter was a little slower than usual. RockstarINTEL notes that 2 million is below the roughly 3 million copies the game has averaged every quarter over the past several years.
Where it ranks
Red Dead Redemption 2 passed Wii Sports at 85 million copies to claim third place all-time. Only Grand Theft Auto V and Minecraft sell more.
Its staying power is clear on PlayStation too. According to RockstarINTEL, it has been the most downloaded PS4 title almost every month for the past two years.
What it means for players
Red Dead Redemption 2 keeps selling years after launch, and the gap to second place is still narrowing in the sense that it continues to outsell titles below it. For GTA fans, the numbers also show how much of Rockstar's back catalogue is still drawing new players.
RockstarINTEL also mentions Red Dead Online bonuses running this month, but the report doesn't include the details.
