After **Rockstar Games**refused to give in to **the $200,**000 ransom demand made by the hacker group **ShinyHunters**—which gained access to the company’s database via the **Anodot** platform—the first gigabytes of information began circulating online.

**You can check out more details about this leak in the video from our partner SanInPlay:**

As [Rockstar itself had indicated in its official statement](https://viciados.net/gta-6-rockstar-games-comunicado-oficial-vazamento/)
, the leaked data does not contain source code or secrets about **GTA 6**. However, the spreadsheets offer details about the company’s true cash cow: **Grand Theft Auto Online**.

Based on community compilations of the raw data, check out the key findings about **Rockstar** **Games**’ billion-dollar economy.

## The death of Red Dead Online is the lack of revenue

For years, the **[Red Dead Redemption 2](https://viciados.net/games/red-dead-redemption-2/)** community has begged for more attention to the game’s online mode, which ended up being quietly sidelined by the developer. The leaked documents explain the reason in cold, hard numbers:

- **Average weekly revenue:** While **GTA Online** rakes in **an** impressive **$9.5 million** per week, **[Red Dead Online](https://viciados.net/games/red-dead-online/)** brings in an average of **$507,000**.
- **Annual estimate:** Revenue projections show **GTAO**bringing in around **$498.8 million per year**, compared to “just” **$26.4 million** for **RDO**.

The numbers prove that, from a corporate standpoint, the effort to keep development teams focused on **Red Dead Online**simply wasn’t justified compared to **GTA Online**.

## The Growth of GTA+

Despite initial criticism from the community when the service launched, **GTA+** proved to be a resounding success for **Take-Two Interactive**.

Leaked financial projections covering the period from 2022 to 2026 show the service’s growth, reaching its **all-time high of 1,351,569 active subscribers on January 11, 2026**.

## Platforms: PlayStation’s Dominance

Engagement and revenue data by platform (weekly average) debunk the myth that **PC**is the primary home for **GTA Online**:

1. **PlayStation 5:** Dominates the market with nearly 3.5 million weekly active players and revenue of $4.4 million.
2. **PlayStation 4:** Holds second place with 1.8 million players, proving the longevity of the previous generation.
3. **Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One:** Combined, they surpass the 2.1 million active users mark.
4. **PC:** Despite having a solid base of nearly 900,000 weekly players, the **PC**is the least profitable platform for **Rockstar**, generating only $264,000 weekly—a clear indication of the impact of *modders* and the secondary account market.

## Where does Rockstar Games make the most money?

The global distribution of **Shark Card** sales shows that the **United States**is the game’s true driving force, racking up an impressive **$153 million** in sales during the monitored period.

The **United Kingdom**comes in a distant second place (**$25 million**), followed by **Germany**and **Australia**. **Brazil** does not appear in the revealed **Top 10**.

In short, **Rockstar Games** has not yet commented on this new wave of data dissected by the public. We will continue to monitor the information extracted from the more than terabytes of exposed files.
