GTA 5 achieved Rank 2 on the most downloaded PS5 games list as per PlayStation Blog

Even though GTA 5 was released in 2013, it is still being played by millions of gamers worldwide, especially on PlayStation. According to a recent report by PlayStation, Grand Theft Auto 5 was the second-most downloaded game on the PS5 in July 2024, in the US and EU regions. Moreover, the game was the third-most downloaded game on PS4 in the same regions, showing an active player base on last-gen consoles.

Keep in mind that most gamers simply play GTA 5 for its online multiplayer, and Rockstar Games released a brand new DLC for the same two months ago, which could be the reason for the game remains popular among PlayStation users.
