GTA 6's 2025 release confidence sends Take-Two's stock to new heights. Possible delay could be very painful
Take-Two Interactive's shares hit an all-time high after the company re-confirmed the GTA 6 release window. However, some gamers remain skeptical.
At the recent Take-Two Interactive investor meeting, CEO Strauss Zelnick confirmed that Grand Theft Auto 6 is still scheduled for release in fall 2025. After this announcement, the publisher's shares reached a record level.
A user named Ben, who specializes in delivering information about Rockstar games, highlighted this fact on X. After Zelnick's words, the price for a single share of Take-Two Interactive rose to a record amount of almost $213 and closed at $208.77. So it seems that the publisher's confidence about the game's release greatly reassured investors.
Undoubtedly, some players who feared a delay of GTA 6 because of the developers' silence since the first trailer's release are also pleased. However, some still approach the autumn release with a dose of skepticism, suggesting that Zelnick's words were aimed solely at boosting the stock price, and the delay will come with time, which could be very painful for the company. Tom Henderson, owner of the Insider-Gaming website, also added his comment.

There is nothing left to do but wait for new information about the game. Hopefully, they will be positive and come with a second trailer and the exact release date. During the last meeting with investors, Take-Two also expressed willingness to support the Nintendo Switch 2 console.
