Take-Two Interactive’s stock saw a significant 15% increase following the company’s recent earnings call, where CEO Strauss Zelnick reaffirmed the release of Grand Theft Auto 6 (GTA 6) for Fall 2025.

The news sent ripples through the market, as investors responded positively to the confirmation of the much-anticipated game’s timeline.

Stock Surge Driven by Confidence in FY26

Take-Two’s stock price surged by $27.80, bringing its value to $210.88. This rise was attributed not just to the GTA 6 confirmation, but also to the company’s optimistic outlook for fiscal years 2026 and 2027.

With a variety of upcoming games, including GTA 6, new entries in the BioShock, Borderlands, and Mafia franchises, Take-Two is positioned for substantial revenue growth.

GTA 6 Expected to Drive Record-Breaking Bookings

Zelnick highlighted that GTA 6 will be a key driver of Take-Two’s growth in the coming years, thanks to both full game sales and ongoing revenue from GTA Online.

Despite not giving specific sales projections, Zelnick expressed confidence that the game’s success would “take care of itself” if the company executed well.

While GTA 6 remains the centerpiece, the company is also poised to benefit from its annual sports game releases and other major titles in the pipeline.

The upcoming fiscal years are expected to break records for Take-Two, building upon the success of its current and future projects.
