Rockstar Games is best known for being the mastermind behind huge franchises like Red Dead Redemption and Grand Theft Auto. GTA 5, released in 2013, has sold 135 million copies alone since its debut and its online community is still going particularly strong. 2018’s Red Dead Redemption 2, similarly, sold 23 million units worldwide as of 2019. Needless to say, there’s a reason Rockstar is best known for these titles.

While these might be their most successful games, they are by no means the only games the developer has had a hand in creating. Founded in 1998, Rockstar has produced countless games over the past two decades, including in other franchises, like Max Payne and Manhunt, which also have a strong cult following.
