GTA 5, possibly the most talked-about game of the last decade, doesn't seem to be moving away from the public eye anytime soon. With the game set for a re-release on next-gen consoles as an "Expanded and Enhanced" edition, GTA 5 is not done with its time on the internet and will continue to thrive.
According to the YouTube official blog, Grand Theft Auto ranked quite highly amongst the most-watched games of 2020. So highly that it makes the top 5, alongside juggernauts such as Fortnite and Minecraft.
This is saying a lot for a game that came out nearly seven years ago. Lorde was the biggest thing in music, to put things into perspective, and the PS4 was considered next-gen during GTA 5's release.
Simply put, not many titles and franchises would stand the test of time like Grand Theft Auto has, and not only has it survived, but also thrived dominantly.
