We still don’t have a GTA 6 release date, but publisher Take-Two narrowed down when we can expect the open-world game during its recent earnings call. Take-Two’s chief finance officer Lainie Goldstein said the 2025 fiscal year is set to be a record-breaking one for the company (thanks, Eurogamer).
“We are confident that the actions our teams are taking this year are preparing us for a strong trajectory of growth,” Goldstein said. “Through our collective efforts, we continue to believe that we are positioning our business for a significant inflection point in fiscal 2025 that will culminate in us delivering new record levels of operating performance next year and beyond.”
Take-Two’s 2025 fiscal year begins in April 2024 and ends the following March, so it seems increasingly likely that GTA 6 will launch in that timeframe, though whether it’ll be a summer or holiday release is anyone’s guess. Rockstar and Take-Two don’t really follow a pattern for releases, although their two most recent new games – GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2 – both launched in October of their respective years.
GTA 6 likely won’t be Take-Two’s only major release, either. CEO Strauss Zelnick teased earlier in 2023 that the company would launch several “groundbreaking” games that would set new standards in the industry and push bookings – contracts with clients and customers – to the $8 billion mark.
For now, we’ll have to settle with the newly-announced Red Dead Redemption port for Switch and PS4, which Zelnick says is priced at the “commercially accurate” point of $50, despite having no updates from the PS3 version.
