Grand Theft Auto Online leads Take-Two to huge digital growth

Grand Theft Auto and NBA 2K publisher Take-Two Interactive had a massive fiscal third quarter, and a big part of its growth came from digital.

The company reported that its revenue from digitally delivered content grew 64 percent year over year to $217.2 million. That made up nearly a quarter of all Take-Two revenue for the quarter. Executives at the publisher point to Grand Theft Auto, NBA 2K15, Borderlands, and Civilization: Beyond Earth for pushing its digital sales thrive. The worldwide gaming market is a multi-billion-dollar industry, and Take-Two continues to step up as one of the most successful companies making games.
