Twelve years after its launch, Grand Theft Auto V continues to defy the odds. In 2025 alone, Rockstar Games sold over five million copies of the open-world hit, keeping fans hooked while anticipation for GTA 6 release reaches a fever pitch.
The Game That Won’t Quit
GTA V remains a global bestseller thanks to Rockstar’s ongoing updates and the massive success of GTA Online. Available on nearly every platform—including PC Game Pass—the game still draws millions. One player, NorthCoastAsher, praised Rockstar’s strategy: “Frequent updates, player feedback, and new content keep GTA Online alive.”
Despite its age, the game’s rich, chaotic world of Los Santos still pulls players in. Some joke it feels like GTA V is “preinstalled in the human soul.”
Praise and Frustration
While many applaud Rockstar’s content strategy, others are growing impatient. Critics argue the company profits from reselling the same game across multiple console generations. “Easy to boast when you re-release the same game on three generations and twice on PC,” one gamer pointed out.

Still, the data doesn’t lie—GTA V remains a powerhouse. Rockstar’s success with GTA Online keeps them from rushing out a new title. But for fans, the wait for GTA 6 is starting to wear thin.
Where Is GTA 6?
The calls for a new entry are growing louder. Social media is flooded with jokes like “We got GTA V before GTA 6,” and more cynical takes like, “You’re never getting GTA VI.” While harsh, they reflect a fan base craving something fresh.
Rockstar’s silence on the official release date has only added to the hype. For now, they continue to rake in profits from a game that refuses to fade. But even loyal fans agree—the time has come for a new era.
Will GTA 6 finally dethrone its legendary predecessor? Until then, GTA V reigns supreme in the open-world kingdom.
