GTA 6 Disc Release and PC Version Update Would Come From Rockstar, Take-Two CEO Says

Next week, Grand Theft Auto 6 will hit the market after years of development and anticipation. It’s set to be the single biggest entertainment launch in history, trumping every movie, album, and other game that has come before it. But there are many who are still disturbed by the game not having a physical disc at launch.

It makes sense why it doesn’t, but given the recent discourse surrounding disc vs. digital, it’s understandable why some fans are feeling uncomfortable about the whole thing. During a recent earnings call, Take-Two’s CEO, Strauss Zelnick, confirmed where any information about a GTA 6 disk would come from, and it’s not him.

Strauss Zelnick Won’t Give You The Disc

Earlier today, Take-Two Interactive offered a quarterly earnings update, hosting a webcast and distributing all manner of documentation related to the company’s stellar performance metrics from the last three months. As you can imagine, many eyes and ears were on Grand Theft Auto 6, which releases worldwide next week.

During the webcast portion of the update, Strauss Zelnick fielded questions from investors and other involved parties. One question concerns the future of Grand Theft Auto 6, and when it will (or could) come to the Nintendo Switch 2 and PC. It’s expected that the PC version of the game may take many months before it arrives, echoing the release schedule for GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2.

Zelnick effectively glossed over the question, stating that ‘information always comes from our labels’in this case, Rockstar Games. Thanks to Variety for the quote.

Take-Two Interactive wouldn’t confirm if or when GTA 6 will get a physical discnor would it confirm when the PC version will arrive. The possibility of a Nintendo Switch 2 version is a different thing entirely. I don’t know if I could see that happening.

The firm revealed revenue of a whopping $1.38 billion between July and September, and pre-sales for GTA 6 are performing way above expectations. What a time to be a Take-Two Interactive investor.
