It’s one, if not the most anticipated video game of the decade. And its sale could not be too late, to the delight of fans of Grand Theft Auto. The game publisher Take-Two Interactive has, probably unwittingly, released a big clue regarding the release date of GTA VI.

The American company published, in a press release on May 17, its tax results for the year 2023. It took the opportunity to project itself on the years to come, and in particular on the fiscal year 2025, which will begin in April 2024. It forecasts, over this period, a sharp increase in sales of its video games . And even says he hopes for at least 8 billion dollars in game reservations over the financial year.

Only GTA can achieve such a goal

However, according to the media specializing in gaming my city, only the production and sale of a video game like Grand Theft Auto can allow the publishing company to reach the figures mentioned. For example, the latest installment in the GTA V series has sold more than 170 million copies and remains, ten years after its release, one of the best-selling video games in the world.

A woman as the main character

If no official release date has leaked, this tax prediction published by Take-Two Interactive is one more clue to the progress of the game’s production, and therefore its next sale. Back in September, footage of the game was hacked, stolen, and widely distributed on the internet, much to the chagrin of the GTA publisher.

These images allowed to know a little more about the sixth opus of Grand Theft Auto. The main character of the game will be a woman, Lucia, and will be associated with Jason. Together, they will form a Bonnie & Clyde couple. The story will take place in Vice City, the fictional version of Miami, which had already been featured in… GTA Vice City, released in 2002.

According to video game and esports media Dexerto, “GTA 6 is expected to be the most expensive game of all time, costing between $1 billion and $2 billion.” Insane figures, up to the expectations and hopes of the most fanatics of the saga. The last GTA was released ten years ago, the next should be available shortly.
