Death. Taxes. GTA 5 selling 5 million units every quarter. There are certain inevitability in life, and the continued success of Rockstar's open-world games is one of them. Even with GTA 6 on the horizon, both the previous Grand Theft Auto and Red Dead Redemption 2 are selling like gangbusters.

As part of its latest financial report, publisher Take-Two confirmed that GTA 5 has sold-in 215 million units, up from 210 in the last quarterly report. That'll include some physical stock being held by retailers that hasn't yet been sold through to consumers, but that's a pretty negligible caveat, especially considering that Take-Two reported another 5 million copies of GTA 5 sold every single quarter this year.
