Take-Two sticks to annual bookings outlook, says on track for 'GTA VI' November launch
On August 7, Take-Two Interactive reported strong demand for its upcoming game Grand Theft Auto VI, reinforcing investor confidence in the blockbuster title's November launch. The company's shares surged more than 4% as Take-Two stuck to its full-year bookings forecast, with CEO Strauss Zelnick expressing cautious optimism about the game's potential.
Pre-orders for GTA VI opened on June 25, marking the end of the long-awaited release that faced multiple delays. Zelnick stated that the unprecedented level of pre-orders has left the company uncertain about how the demand will translate into actual sales. Despite the uncertainty, Take-Two remains committed to its guidance and has not altered its fiscal 2027 bookings projection, which ranges from $8 billion to $8.20 billion.
The gaming giant anticipates substantial revenue from GTA VI, expecting billions of dollars in sales within days of its launch.
