During Take-Two Interactive's second quarter financials it was announced that Borderlands 2 has shipped 5M Units in a little over a month at retailers. The company also noted that XCOM has been both a 'critical and commercial success'. Both titles are said to have had 'strong digital sales.'
I'm happy that XCOM has been a success for Take Two, I wasn't entirely sure how well modern gaming audiences would accept it. I really enjoyed it and I hope this locks down another installment.
Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick noted "Take-Two's second quarter revenue and earnings exceeded our outlook, driven by the breakout success of 2K's Borderlands 2 and robust demand for our catalog and digitally delivered offerings."
"Moreover, with Grand Theft Auto 5 slated for spring 2013, we are poised to generate substantial revenue and earnings growth in fiscal year 2014."
