Numbers Nobody Has Yet

  • Map size. Rockstar hasn't published a figure in square miles. The closest are comparisons: about three times RDR2's (the New York Times), roughly twice GTA V's (Edge), and a landmass Rockstar told Edge is nearly GTA IV, GTA V and RDR2 combined.
  • Sales. Take-Two hasn't given pre-order units or revenue, only "unprecedented".
  • Budget. Figures in the press are analyst guesses, not Take-Two disclosures.
  • Story length, mission count, radio station total. Not until people play it.

We'll add launch-week numbers (review scores, first sales figures Take-Two publishes) as they're released.
