Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick has shared a brief update about the ongoing development of Rockstar Games‘ highly-anticipated Grand Theft Auto VI.

According to reports, Zelnick revealed in a recent financial call that sales of Grand Theft Auto V and Red Dead Redemption 2 continue to remain at a high number as Rockstar Games work on GTA VI. “With development of the next entry in the Grand Theft Auto series well underway, the Rockstar Games team is determined once again to set creative benchmarks for the series, our industry, and for all entertainment — just as the label has done with every one of their frontline releases,” he said on the call.

Although there is barely any confirmed information about GTA VI as of writing, rumors regarding the upcoming game have been abundant. In 2022 alone, it was speculated that the protagonists may be a brother and sister duo or, for the first time in history, a female character, that its release date could be as early as 2023 and that the map will be as big as Red Dead Redemption 2’s.

Elsewhere in gaming, Nvidia Gaming’s revenue fell by more than 1 billion USD in Q2 2022.
