Last December, Rockstar unveiled the first trailer for GTA VI, confirming its highly anticipated release in 2025. According to Take-Two Interactive's fiscal report, the parent company of Rockstar, the game now has a more specific launch window: fall 2025.
Take-Two's fiscal year ends in March, and the company is forecasting a 10% rise in net income over the next year. The Chairman and CEO of Take-Two Interactive commented on GTA VI, noting that net bookings are expected to increase steadily over the next three years.
Our outlook reflects a narrowing of Rockstar Games’ previously established window of Calendar 2025 to Fall of Calendar 2025 for Grand Theft Auto VI. We are highly confident that Rockstar Games will deliver an unparalleled entertainment experience, and our expectations for the commercial impact of the title continue to increase.
Take-Two, which also owns 2K and Private Division, has announced that NBA 2K25, WWE 2K25, and Tales of the Shire: A Lord of the Rings Game will be released by the end of fiscal 2025 (before March 2025). Additionally, mobile-only titles like Star Wars Hunters and Game of Thrones: Legends are scheduled for release.
GTA VI will be the 8th main installment in the highly popular Grand Theft Auto series and the 16th installment overall. Launching 12 years after its predecessor, GTA V, this new game will feature two main characters, Lucia and Jason, partners in crime according to the game trailer.
GTA VI will take players back to the Miami-inspired Vice City, set in the fictional open-world state of Leonida, based on Florida.
