Take-Two talks GTA 6 release and Rockstar’s biggest sales hits
Take-Two Interactive once again confirmed the release window for GTA 6.
The investor meeting for Take-Two Interactive, the parent company of Rockstar Games, has started. Right off the bat, they talked about GTA 6, but these aren't the news the community was expecting. It was simply confirmed that the game's release is still planned for "autumn 2025."
The release dates of several other projects from the Take-Two Interactive publishing catalog were also mentioned. As we read in the report:
Looking ahead, this calendar year is shaping up to be one of the strongest ever for Take-Two, as we plan to launch Sid Meier’s Civilization VII on February 11th, Mafia: The Old Country in the Summer, Grand Theft Auto VI in the Fall, and Borderlands 4 [the latter title is to be released after GTA 6, which suggests the very end of 2025].
It seems that Take-Two Interactive is very confident that all the aforementioned games - led by GTA 6 - will be released in 2025 (note that we're talking about the calendar year, not the fiscal year). On the other hand, the CEO of the company, Strauss Zelnick, stated that "there is always a risk of delay," which is why he doesn't want to say anything more and prefers to play it safe.
Sales results of GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2
Nevertheless, these aren't the only interesting news that came to us from that meeting. Updated sales data for Rockstar's two latest hits, GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2, have been revealed.
- The fifth installment of the Grand Theft Auto series has so far sold 210 million copies. Its result improved by 5 million over the last quarter.
- The sales of RDR 2 amount to 70 million copies. That's 3 million more than three months ago, indicating that the game continues to attract interest.
