Red Dead Redemption 2 in its debut weekend collected more than "Infinity War" — in the cinema
The cowboy action movie Red Dead Redemption 2 hit the jackpot. The game earned $725 million. This is the second most successful launch in the history of the entertainment industry.
Recall that the most successful launch remains another Rockstar game — Grand Theft Auto V. She earned more than $1 billion in the first three days. But due to the fact that GTA V was released on Tuesday, the title of the largest launch in the debut weekend went to Red Dead Redemption 2.
Red Dead Redemption 2 has set other records. The novelty has become the largest launch of this year. In addition, it is the most pre-ordered game on the PlayStation Store and the best-selling on the release day and in the first three days.
The first part of the western was released in 2010 and has sold 15 million copies during this time. The second one can achieve the same result in just a few days.
The success of Red Dead Redemption 2 could be envied even in Hollywood. In the film industry, the record box office in the debut weekend is $640 million. That’s how much the movie “Avengers: Infinity War” collected in the first three days of rental.
