Insane sales the bar for open world games

 


Meta examples are still applicable for an article like this one. There is no way to sugarcoat or exaggerate its merits, but GTA 5 is a financial success. It has sold over 150M copies. As far as individual games go, only Minecraft has sold more.


That means every open world game, AAA or not, should look at GTA 5 and see why it succeeded. One could argue about what the game offers to a consumer, but there is no denying that it was an objective success by every metric of the word.


Not every reason for GTA 5's success is tied to its great features. It comes from a long-standing series of legendary video games that have built a connection with millions of gamers globally. Not to mention, Take-Two and Rockstar Games poured a substantial amount of money into its marketing.
