Take-Two Interactive recently entered into an agreement to acquire Zynga. This process was announced in a press release with a section titled ‘Strategic Rationale and Shareholder Value Creation’. “Looking ahead, the combined company is expected to deliver a combined annual growth rate of 14 percent over Take-Two’s three-year period from Fiscal Years 2021 to 2024. ” was noted. At this point, GTA 6 came to mind.
According to an analyst at Jefferies, there are few big games that would offer such powerful guidance to management. He stated that he trusted at least one of them. This, again, research analyst Doug Creutz said, points to a possible GTA 6 launch in FY24. If that’s true, the GTA 6 release date could be between early April 2023 and late March 2024.
Take-Two financiers say spending will double in FY2024
In 2020, Take-Two’s financiers stated that marketing spend will double in FY2024. This was interpreted by an analyst at the time as suggesting the same release range for GTA 6. It also represented marketing commitments to third-party companies rather than internal studios like Rockstar Games.
GTA 6 PC version may come late
When GTA 6 is released, it is expected that the PC version will be a little late, as in GTA 5 and RDR 2. Announcing GTA 6 in 2023, exactly ten years after the launch of GTA 5, is thought to be the perfect time. At this point, the importance of having the Rockstar Launcher is underlined.
