The latest instalment of one of the most iconic open world video game franchises, Grand Theft Auto V, is being called the bestselling title of 2013. The game was released in the second half of the year.
The news fails to come as a surprise as the same was expected ever since GTA V roped in $800 million within a day of its launch. Take-Two Interactive, the parent company of Rockstar Games, also confirmed the information it its financial earnings, stating, "Grand Theft Auto V finished as the best-selling video game of 2013." The press release further mentioned "To date, Grand Theft Auto V has sold-in more than 32.5 million units," and attributed NPD Group retail tracking data.
It has been also noted that recently GTA: San Andreas, the previous iteration of GTA V, got released on Windows Phone Store but only for selected devices. GTA San Andreas is only available for Nokia Lumia: 1520, 1320, 822, 820, 810, HTC: 8XT.
The game's downloadable size is 19GB and requires an additional 2.5GB to run. Since the download size is huge, the users have been recommended to download the game via Wi-Fi connection.
Before the release of GTA: San Andreas on Windows Phones, the PC version of GTA V was spotted on the Amazon's German website. GTA V PC version is listed at 60 euros, which is approximately Rs. 5,000. There is no word on the minimum system requirements of the game as of now. The listing page also mentions that the PC version is only available for Windows 7 and Windows Vista OS versions. Corroborating the Amazon Germany listing, Amazon France reportedly also listed the PC version on its shelves, a listing that has now been removed from the website
