Thefames Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 (edited) With another solid year under its belt, attention has turned to when Take-Two will unveil Grand Theft Auto 6 to capitalize on GTA 5's success in selling over 65 million copies since its launch a couple years ago. So far, Take-Two has not issued a release date, instead focusing on continuing to upgrade the gameplay for GTA 5 in order to keep consumers hooked. But, seeing as GTA 5 has been on the market for over two and a half years, it's only natural to wonder what's taking Take-Two so long to launch the next iteration in the popular franchise. 'We aim for perfection, and that takes time,' Take-Two Interactive chairman and CEO Strauss Zelnick told TheStreet, adding, 'By resting our core products and not being on an annualized schedule we build anticipation.' Zelnick pointed out that frequent new content releases for a title like Grand Theft Auto keeps people engaged and drives recurring consumer spending. https://www.thestreet.com/video/13618418/take-two-ceo-why-we-don-t-release-a-new-grand-theft-auto-every-year.html Edited June 23, 2016 by Thefames Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zello Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 This isn't really new we've known that Take Two and R* don't like to release GTA every year like a COD or up until this year AC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dedito Gae Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Is actually a good thing they don't churn out gta games every year, not like they could be able to because they have more content and layers than COD or FIFA games.

Pedinhuh Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 They are getting paid via shark cards with minimal effort, why should they ditch a current business model that is working in favor for them? Also, this news is old... Maibatsu545 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DERGaming Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 They just announced that it was going to be a yearly thing like a lot of other games but GTA 6 won't be expected in a year obviously Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carmencitas Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Games that are released every year slowly decrease in quality. Look at COD, the first Black Ops game was imo the game of the series that blew it up and made it super mainstream. Also had a good original story things soon fell apart in the next games. Same with Assassins Creed, after 2 & Brotherhood the game quality suffered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perfectly said! I don't get why it has to be either yearly or every 5+ years like it currently is. I really wish they'd release a new game at least every 2-3 years, 4 max.
