Strauss Zelnick, CEO of Take-Two, gave a new interview where he shared interesting facts about Rockstar Games and the GTA series:
Grand Theft Auto 5 has made nearly $10 billion;
Rockstar wants to make GTA 6 the best possible game to
justify the fans' expectations;
Rockstar leads all entertainment companies in the world;
The Grand Theft Auto series has no competition;
Rockstar follows a pattern when releasing games across
different platforms (by this logic, the PC version of GTA 6 would
release in 2026 or 2027);
The company has created a tremendous amount of content since
releasing GTA 5, including updates for both GTA Online and Red
Dead Redemption 2;
Rockstar would prefer not to have another 12-year gap between
mainline GTA releases.
Previously, it was reported that Take-Two wanted to sell its Private Division label, which published The Outer Worlds, Kerbal Space Program 2, and No Rest for the Wicked. Additionally, the outlet Vortex reported that a new Mafia game could be announced at Summer Game Fest 2024 in June.
