'When will GTA 6 be released?' Take-Two President responds
The CEO of Take-Two answered, in a way that should satisfy fans: "We leave the announcement of our upcoming titles to our respective brands, and we have a very promising lineup of titles for the fiscal year 2025. We believe, based on our past announcements, we will generate 8 billion dollars in revenue." You can find the interview below; the quoted bit starts at 3:29.
Take-Two Interactive CEO: Post-pandemic video game market a little rougher than expected
Zelnick was referencing an investors' report recently published. His comments sparked hope among gaming enthusiasts, even though they didn't directly relate to Grand Theft Auto 6. Still, considering they were all part of a single statement, we can speculate that the highly-anticipated sixth installment might be closer than we think.
For the uninitiated: Fiscal year 2025 refers to the period from April 2024 to March 2025. This might be a realistic estimate for the release date of GTA 6, considering that rumors of the game's development have been circulating around the internet for several years now. Moreover, it's been nearly a decade since the release of the previous installment, Grand Theft Auto 5. The question remains: How much longer will Rockstar Games make us wait?
