Take-Two has hinted again at the possibility of GTA 6 being released before March 2025. 

In the company's previous earnings report for 2024's first quarter (which ends in March 2024), the publisher reported $1.2 billion in net bookings for the quarter. While this was at the higher end of its expectations, Take-Two seems to think it can do better next fiscal year, and it may have something to do with GTA 6

In this earnings report, the publisher reiterated its expectations for the entire fiscal year of 2024. In this, it reported that the expectation for total net bookings would land somewhere between $5.45 to $5.55 billion. This sharp spike in net bookings could be an indication of GTA 6 releasing in that fiscal year, and the company's expectations of it.

“We remain confident that we are positioning our business for a significant inflexion point in fiscal 2025, which we believe will include new record levels of operating performance,” Take-Two CEO and chairman Strauss Zelnick said in a statement. We would like to thank all of our stakeholders for their continued support, and we look forward to delivering on this exciting next chapter.”

While this isn't the first time Take-Two has raised our spirits concerning GTA 6's release date, this confirmation would fit into the timeline that Rockstar set for itself concerning development. In 2022 a few developers leaked that GTA 6 is about two years away from completion. Time flies when you're having fun because we're fast approaching that very deadline. 

Despite a few leaks surfacing over the previous year or so hinting at setting, characters, and combat, there's still a lot left untold about this upcoming title. Hopefully, as we get closer to the end of the next fiscal year, Take-Two will start to reveal more information about this high-anticipated title.
