Red Dead Redemption 2 Stomped the Largest Opening in the Entertainment Industry

It was announced today that Red Dead Redemption 2 officially had the single-largest opening week in the entire entertainment industry. RDR 2 had the biggest launch ever, after selling something over $725 million in its first three days. In the list, it comes right after Grand Theft Auto V, which was released in 2013.

Even though $725 is quite a big number, GTAV moves past RDR 2 with more than 33% of their sales. But this is not that important, because RDR 2 has the title of the largest weekend entertainment launch of all-time.

This is also big news for Sony Interactive Entertainment because according to SIE, Red Dead Redemption 2 had the highest number of PSN pre-orders and highest day one digital sale. It has a Metacritic score of 97, which makes it one of the most critically-acclaimed games of this generation.

We’re extremely satisfied and thankful for the content we have received. Both as players and journalists, we love whatever has been written inside the piece of code that has amazed the whole world. Thanks to Rockstar Games for developing something different, and as usual, proving what they’re capable of doing and what they do best.
