Grand Theft Auto V Now UK’s Fastest-Selling Game Of All Time

By Alex Osborn

Call of Duty who? FIFA what? The latest entry in Rockstar's open-world crime series has climbed to the top of the charts in the UK, shattering sales records, becoming the fastest-selling game of all time in the region.

A whopping 2.25 million copies of Grand Theft Auto V have been sold in the short span of just five days in the UK, surpassing the prior leader, Call of Duty: Black Ops, by nearly 250,000 units. That's certainly no small feat, but considering the selling power of GTA, it doesn't surprise me in the slightest.

Here's the full top ten list of last week:

  1. Grand Theft Auto V
  2. Pro Evolution Soccer 2014
  3. The Last of Us
  4. Saints Row 4
  5. Splinter Cell: Blacklist
  6. Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition
  7. Diablo 3
  8. Disney Infinity
  9. Aliens: Colonial Marines
  10. Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 Remix
