Take-Two CEO, Strauss Zelnick, is optimistic about the upcoming release of Grand Theft Auto 6 boosting sales for PS5 and Xbox Series X this year. Historically, major game launches like GTA have driven console sales. While there is a concern about the lack of a PC release for GTA 6 alongside consoles, Zelnick points out that Rockstar has traditionally focused on console launches first. He acknowledges the increasing importance of the PC market and anticipates a rise in console sales due to the excitement surrounding GTA 6 and other upcoming titles.
The release of GTA 6 is expected in Fall 2025, with uncertainties regarding the PC version’s launch date. Despite the recent decline in PlayStation and Xbox hardware sales, Zelnick believes that the surge in console sales will be driven by the release schedule of big titles. This trend is reflected in the growing share of the market for PC gaming. Zelnick remains confident in the success of GTA 6 and the potential impact on console sales.
