Take-Two Results: GTA5 Sells 52M Units

Take-Two Interactive Reports "strong" results for fiscal year 2015, saying Grand Theft Auto V has now sold more than 52 million copies. Here's word on the losses these strong results produced: "For fiscal year 2015, GAAP net revenue was $1.083 billion, as compared to $2.351 billion for fiscal year 2014, which had benefited from the record-breaking launch of Grand Theft Auto V for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. GAAP net loss was $279.5 million, or $3.48 per diluted share, as compared to GAAP net income of $361.6 million, or $3.20 per diluted share, for the prior fiscal year. GAAP results for fiscal year 2015 reflect the deferral of net revenue and cost of goods sold related to sell-in of certain titles during the fiscal third and fourth quarters." Here are the highlights:

Developed by Turtle Rock Studios, Evolve is being supported with a robust array of downloadable add-on content, including a Hunting Season Pass, as well as a companion App – Evolve: Hunters Quest.

  • Released Borderlands: The Handsome Collection on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. The Handsome Collection includes Borderlands 2 and Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel along with all of the downloadable content for both titles.
