Do you suppose they’ll observe by means of?

In case you missed it, Take-Two’s latest monetary report had plenty of bullish claims, championed by present CEO Strauss Zelnick. Along with focusing on an unprecedented quantity of income in FY2025, some issues have been raised over particular platforms: most notably, the Change, and a possible shift to up to date current-gen consoles.

Talking to Gamesindustry.biz, Zelnick notes that they’re placing loads on the road relating to their “immersive core” video games, which at the moment include WWE 2K24, NBA 2K24…and an “eagerly-anticipated new IP from one in every of [their] premiere studios.” However what in regards to the Change? Nicely, that’s TBD.
There may be…one thing there, not less than. LEGO 2K Drive does certainly launch right now on Change, with the doubtful Star Wars Hunters coming later this 12 months following a delay. When requested about future help in FY2025, Zelnick gave a relatively muted response, noting: “Sure, I believe we’ll proceed to help it.” When pressed a couple of potential “console refresh” (learn: a boosted/souped-up theoretical Xbox Sequence X or PS5 “Professional”), Zelnick mentioned that “we most likely will” see it occur, and that “they [console refreshes] didn’t have an effect on the enterprise very a lot,” referring to the PS4 Professional and Xbox One X. The Zynga acquisition and religion within the cell market are additionally a heavy focus for Take-Two going into the following few fiscal years.

Nicely, with all that data, it looks like we all know the place 2K stands going ahead. They’re taking a “wait and see” method with Change, they’re specializing in PC, cell, and Sony/Microsoft consoles, they usually gained’t change a lot strategically if there’s one other “half-generation bump.” So principally enterprise as standard.
