GTA 6 is almost here, but Los Santos is still welcoming new arrivals. Take-Two says GTA 5 is approaching 235 million units sold worldwide, extending a run that began in 2013.

The figure appears in financial materials released in November. In its previous update in August, the company had reported more than 230 million units. The difference between those disclosed milestones is roughly five million.

Thirteen years and three console generations

GTA 5 debuted on PS3 and Xbox 360 before reaching PS4, Xbox One, PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. Its presence across platforms allowed the game to reach new audiences for more than a decade.

The total counts units of the game, not distinct people. One player may have bought multiple versions over the years.

GTA Online remains in the plans

Take-Two also highlighted GTA+ growth and continued events and content for GTA Online. The multiplayer game helps keep its community active as the next launch approaches.

The company's position was also outlined in its comments on GTA Online support after GTA 6. Arriving in Leonida does not mean players must close their Los Santos garages.

GTA 6 is scheduled for November 19. While attention shifts to the new release, GTA 5 enters the final stretch of the wait still expanding its reach.
