When asked about the launch of GTA 6 on the air, the general director of Take-Two turned around like in a frying pan, just not to talk about GTA 6

Strauss Zelnika has repeatedly asked about the GTA 6 launch time in the recent news segment CNBC, and the general director of the Maternal company Rockstar Take-Two, the GTA 6 news date, was said to be anything, just not to talk about GTA 6.

The potion appeared on the Squawk Box of the news channel to discuss the ambitious forecasts of the company’s income that are so exceeding the norm – about $ 3 billion, to be precise – that the output of such an expected game as GTA 6 is one of the most likely explanations. Co -host Becky Quick noted that this news "Forced people to speculate that Grand Theft Auto 6 should come out".

We have already said that we are working on the next iteration of Grand Theft Auto, but Rockstar has not yet announced the release date. We are working on this huge conveyor. In [2025 and 2026, 36 games will enter the market, and we certainly have great hopes for them.

And you are right, we usually do not talk about future years. We usually give recommendations and try to go right in the center, this is what we should do. In this case, we wanted to provide the industry transparency, about which she had long requested. Therefore, we basically gave a forecast for this financial year and subsequent. We have high expectations for [2025 financial year], but we also expect consistent growth in [2026 financial year].

Quick claims that the potion and Take-Two usually "Pretty conservative" In his forecasts – what does this surge of $ 3 billion do even more unusual – and asks why the potion is so confident in this forecast.

We have been working on this conveyor for a long time. We have a good ability to predict the performance of new iterations of existing franchises.

"For example, Grand Theft Auto?" Quick wedges.

Grinning, the potion continues:

In fact, we have 14 franchises, each of which was sold by a circulation of more than five million copies. These are games such as Red Dead, Borderlands, Bioshock, Civilization and many others.

This is true; These franchises are large and successful in themselves, but even Red Dead Redemption is not a big game with an annual turnover of $ 3 billion.

As always, the launch of the GTA 6 in 2024 remains unconfirmed. The financial year, which Take-Two planned, is technically stretched for the first quarter of 2025, for a start, and GTA went out both in autumn and in the spring, so we cannot exclude any of these periods. GTA 6 is also not the only explanation of the expected TAKE-TWO numbers, although this is becoming more and more likely.
