2026 looks to be a very exciting year for video games. In addition to being the first full year for the Switch 2--we'll surely hear about even more games for the system as we move further into the year--2026 will also see the release of Grand Theft Auto 6, which is widely anticipated as one of the biggest entertainment launches of all time.
Daniel Ahmad emphasized the unrealistic nature of Konvoy's $7.6 billion revenue projection for GTA 6, describing it as 'an aggressive forecast for the first 60 days.' He highlighted that achieving this revenue would require nearly 65% of PS5 and Xbox Series X|S users to purchase the game within that timeframe.
On Friday, "GTA" maker Rockstar Games announced that the company now plans to release the game in May 2026. Shares of Rockstar's parent company, Take-Two Interactive, tumbled by as much as 8% on Friday morning.
