GTA 5 sales got a record-setting boost from the Epic Store giveaway
GTA 5 sold through more units during the first quarter of Take-Two’s financial year – meaning April 1 through June 30 – than in any other first quarter since launch. The six weeks following the Epic Store giveaway also had more GTA 5 sales than the same period in any previous years. Take-Two says the Epic promotion was a “contributing factor” to the sales success.
Total sales of GTA 5 have now reached 135 million, as Take-Two says during its latest financial results call, up from 130 million during the last financial report three months ago.
As announced back in June, GTA Online is getting a standalone release that’ll be free for three months to PlayStation 5 players. Clearly, Take-Two is confident that the expanded playerbase afforded by these giveaways is going to help drive further sales.

MushroomElm Sad they never put out any full DLC for single player. Really would have liked to do more. New heists, buildings to buy, etc. Online just isn't as fun for me as it used to be, after about 2017. Been playing since day one. It was a good game but I, personally, think it needs to just finish off.
We just need a new game at this point even though that is not expected until earliest 2022, I just cannot play anymore without being bored after 5 minutes sadly.

I agree with this, some single player DLC would have been absolutely amazing! But, they did truly deserve this record.
