Take-Two Interactive Stock Drops Amid GTA VI Delay and Earnings Miss
Take-Two Interactive Software's stock (TTWO) declined sharply in after-hours trading following Rockstar Games' announcement of another delay for Grand Theft Auto VI. The highly anticipated title is now slated for release on November 19, 2026—a significant pushback from its original fall 2025 window. Rockstar cited quality assurance as the primary reason, emphasizing the need to meet fan expectations.
Despite the setback, anticipation remains high. The first trailer, released in December 2023, generated massive hype, and subsequent delays have done little to dampen enthusiasm. Investors, however, reacted negatively to the extended timeline and the company's recent earnings miss.
