Take-Two: GTA VI Pre-Orders “Continuing to Reach Unprecedented Levels”
Take-Two’s November 9 results keep GTA VI on November 19 and hold the $8.0–8.2 billion outlook. It gives no pre-order number.
Confirmed — from Take-Two’s fiscal second-quarter 2027 results, released November 9. CEO Strauss Zelnick: “The launch of Grand Theft Auto VI is ten days away and, with pre-orders continuing to reach unprecedented levels, we expect to deliver an historic year for our company.”
The release lists GTA VI for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S on November 19, 2026, and reiterates the outlook of $8.0 to $8.2 billion in net bookings for the year to March 2027.
Reported, not in the release: outlets say Zelnick told investors on the call that the game has gone gold, and that pre-orders are “far above” Take-Two’s first expectations. We could not read a call transcript, so those stay Reported.
The limit of this story: Take-Two published no pre-order count. The “10 million pre-orders” and “nearly $1 billion” figures in some headlines are Sensor Tower estimates and outlets’ own sums, not Take-Two’s numbers.
