Take-Two Interactive Anticipates a Stellar Year

GTA 6 Release Window Still Targeted for Fall 2025

Grand Theft Auto 6 (GTA 6) continues to be on track for a Fall 2025 launch. During the Q3 Earnings Conference Call on February 7, 2025, Take-Two Interactive provided updates on their current status and upcoming releases.

CEO Strauss Zelnick expressed confidence in the Fall 2025 release, yet acknowledged the possibility of delays, noting, "Look, there's always a risk of slippage and I think as soon as you say words like absolutely, you jinx things." Despite this, he remains optimistic, stating, "We feel really good about it." Zelnick refrained from sharing specifics about GTA 6's development but emphasized Rockstar's commitment to perfection, saying, "We know that Rockstar seeks perfection. I never claim success before it occurs. I'm fond of saying arrogance is the enemy of continued success, so we're all running scared and looking over our shoulders and we know that the competition is not asleep. Our whole organization is super excited."

Take-Two Interactive's 2025 Game Lineup

Zelnick highlighted the significant year ahead for Take-Two Interactive, with a robust slate of game releases. "Looking ahead, this calendar year is shaping up to be one of the strongest ever for Take-Two, as Sid Meier’s Civilization VII launched in Early Access today, with the official launch on February 11th, and we also plan to release Mafia: The Old Country in the Summer, Grand Theft Auto VI in the Fall, and Borderlands 4 before year-end," he announced.

Regarding the potential success of these titles, Zelnick expressed strong optimism, stating, "We are exceedingly optimistic about the commercial potential of our titles and believe that they will have a transformative effect on our business – and our industry – over the long term." The company also projects record levels of Net Bookings for Fiscal 2026 and 2027.
