Grand Theft Auto V moves 29M copies — publisher Take-Two Interactive crushes revenue estimates

Publisher Take-Two Interactive generated $1.27 billion in revenue for its fiscal Q2.

That’s a big beat for the company. Wall Street expectations had anticipated that the Grand Theft Auto maker would only report quarterly revenue in the $922 million range. The company also reported an earnings per share (EPS) of $2.49. That beats estimates of $1.48. That’s a gigantic success for the game company.
