GTA V has tapped three generations of consoles now, plus PC. I bet a lot of people have bought it twice.
It’s also been out 13 years or something and it was free to claim on EGS at some point. Wouldn’t be surprised if that counted as sales too, since Epic presumably paid them for those claims.

I think Tetris is in it’s own cateory here. We’re talking about over 40 years of re-licensing the same thing to nearly every platform in existence, short of a number of 8-bit computers and consoles. And all that happened under many different publishers, sometimes multiple times on the same system. Added up, it’s no surprise that it’s in the top spot. Nothing else on this list even comes close to having numbers like that.
Meanwhile Minecraft and GTAV are closing that gap in a fraction of the time, on a fraction of as many platforms.

With a magnitude of additional potential customers.
