Take-Two CEO Promises Unmatched Experience with Grand Theft Auto 6
Take-Two's Vision for GTA 6
In a recent discussion with a financial news outlet, Take-Two Interactive's CEO, Strauss Zelnick, expressed their ambition to create Grand Theft Auto 6 as 'the best thing anyone has ever seen in entertainment.' The company aims to elevate the gaming experience beyond mere interactivity, aligning with the high expectations of fans.
Quality Over Speed
Zelnick emphasized that Take-Two's development strategy is centered around quality, ensuring that their projects are not just completed on time but also optimized for performance. He described the six-month delay in the release of GTA 6 as a minor setback, reiterating Rockstar's commitment to delivering a polished product. This delay is seen as a necessary step to enhance the gaming experience, a philosophy that has previously benefited titles like GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2, which achieved significant success after similar postponements.
