Rockstar has finished GTA VI

There won’t be a third delay. On Take-Two’s Q2 fiscal 2027 earnings call on November 9, CEO Strauss Zelnick said plainly that Rockstar has finished GTA VI. He closed the call by telling analysts they’d have a great time playing it at home over the holidays.

Presales are huge

Zelnick told Variety that GTA VI presales are “running far in excess of our expectations.” CFO Lainie Goldstein called the pre-order level “extraordinary.” Take-Two raised its outlook for the December quarter and now expects $3.35–3.5 billion in net bookings, up from $1.9 billion a year earlier. Marketing spend is up 21% year over year, and the stock rose about 4% after hours.

PC, Switch 2 and a real disc are still unknown

Asked about a PC version, a Switch 2 port or a proper disc edition (the physical boxes only hold a download code), Zelnick deflected: “information always comes from our labels.” Any of those announcements will come from Rockstar.

On roleplay and mods, Zelnick said “the experiences on console and PC tend to be roughly the same.” He also confirmed that FiveM, the GTA V roleplay platform Take-Two owns, is “a profitable business.”

What’s locked in

GTA VI launches November 19 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S at $79.99 (standard) and $99.99 (ultimate). Code-in-box copies reach stores from November 12. On November 18 at 7 PM ET, the Miami Heat play the Bucks on ESPN in a “Night in Vice City” tie-in.
