Well… that sounds like the CEO of Take-Two is hinting at Cyberpunk 2077!

Take-Two has also published its quarterly financial earnings (and we’re not going into details; we will mention one thing, though – Grand Theft Auto V has hit 140 million sales, and since 2013, it has been the best-selling game every year!), and Strauss Zelnick, the CEO of Take-Two, got a question about the current AAA games’ development speed and its sustainability.

Here’s the question: „And there’s been a debate, I think, emerging in the industry about whether the current pace of AAA game development and sustainable both, I think for getting games out the door, and then the sense that life services are becoming more and more of an arms race in terms of who can put the most content out the quickest. There was a competing game that came out recently that was highly anticipated where I think it was a clear case of that studios’ reach exceeding their grasp.” Huh, that sounds like CD Projekt RED (which was a victim of a cyberattack!) and Cyberpunk 2077, doesn’t it?

Zelnick replied that if you can achieve perfection, patience should be applied instead of rushing an incomplete game out the door: „I think the case that you’re alluding to reflects the fact that you’re always better served to wait for perfection if you can create perfection, and all of our labels are seeking perfection. And we don’t always succeed, sometimes we fall short. But that’s the goal. And if anything in these times causes us to sharpen our minds further and sharpen our discipline further and try harder.

It’s great that Rockstar Games continues to put out add-on content and additional content for Grand Theft Auto Online and Red Dead Online. But they’ve put out material that they believe in that they’re passionate about and that is of the highest possible quality. And that means we’re not on a weekly cadence and we’re not going to be in that means we don’t necessarily know the exact release date. But what we do know is that we will wait for it to be as close to perfect as anything can be,” the CEO of Take-Two said.

So we should be patient and wait at least 1.5 years until Grand Theft Auto VI is officially announced and revealed!
