Take-Two Interactive reports about $1.39 billion in sales during the quarter that includes the opening of preorders for “Grand Theft Auto 6.” According to Variety, the company records $1.39 billion (about $1.4 billion) in sales for the period from April 1 through June 30, which covers the five days when “GTA 6” presales are said to have been open. In a later call with analysts, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick characterizes the “GTA 6” preorder performance as an “exceptional start,” highlighting that the presales launched and ran for a short initial window within the quarter.
TechRadar similarly reports the same figure, describing the level of preorders as “unprecedented,” and attributes the total to the reported $1.39 billion in sales tied to the preorder period for “Grand Theft Auto 6.” Both outlets frame the announcement as part of Take-Two’s earnings communications and focus on sales generated during the early preorder window rather than post-launch performance or broader quarterly results beyond that period.
