It might have been a long time coming (it was, after all, delayed for over a year), but the release of Red Dead Redemption 2 proved to be a huge success with both critics and the fans. I should note at this point that I will attempt to avoid spoilers, but I can’t make any promises. If you haven’t played it by now, however, you really should!
With the release of their end of year sales figures, publisher Take-Two has, of course, confirmed that Red Dead Redemption 2 has been a success. In a report via GamesIndustry, however, the company has confirmed that the retail sales for the games have exceeded expectations!
It was hardly any secret that the game was going to be a huge success. Rockstar Games might occasionally cause controversy, but you would struggle to name any bad game they had been involved with. For the financial year, the company reported $1.57bn in net profit. Based on the prior year, this was $1.40bn.
While the additional profit is undoubtedly from the release of Red Dead Redemption 2, it shouldn’t be forgotten that Grand Theft Auto 5 has always continued to be an excellent seller. Despite it being 3-5 years now (in its various releases and formats).
Despite the game not even having been released for 6 months yet, we suspect that RDR2 will continue to be a huge success for the company as the year’s progress. If nothing else, it is at least some positive news that a third installment of the game will come. Albeit, we probably have a long wait on our hands.
