Take-Two Interactive, the creator of the Grand Theft Auto series, recently revealed that a lot of new games are set to be released and under their development.

Take-Two reveals 93 new games soon, but no news on next GTA
GameSpot reported this week that Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick announces new development on their gaming selection.
It turns out that the developers of GTA will be extra busy for the next five years, as the company creates 93 titles in development. All the games are scheduled to be released until March 2025. However, some of them may not be developed through completion until the target year of launching.
As detailed, 63 titles out of the total 93 are described as "core gaming experiences," which includes 15 platform extensions of existing titles. 17 out of them will be mid-core titles, and 13 games that are considered 'casual games.'
Not only that, but 47 are also set to come from "existing franchises." While 72 are expected to release on a combination of console, PC, and streaming platforms. Seven out of the 72 will be available on mobile. Separately, 21 games will be made available on mobile.
When it comes to the business models, 67 out of the 93 are with paid titles, and 26 from this will be released as free-to-play. Take-Two also confirms that all 93 will not have downloadable content (DLC) or any add-ons.
"Take-Two has the "strongest development pipeline in its history, including sequels from our biggest franchises as well as exciting new IP," said Zelnick. "We'd like to keep up this velocity. It's really important for us to build scale. And this is one way we're doing it--we need more at-bats."
When is the release date of GTA 6?
Of course, during the question and answer, it was unavoidable for the people to ask Take-Two CEO regarding the much-awaited release of the next version of GTA 5 on their platform.
Unfortunately, Zelnick did not comment on the question regarding the release of the next GTA 5. He also did not confirm nor deny whether the GTA 6 will be part of the 93 games that are set to release until 2025.
However, the CEO confirms that some of the new underdeveloped games will be in partnership with other developers such as Rockstar-- which also created GTA series.
"We haven't yet made any announcements that aren't reflected in today's release. We don't talk about specific new titles at these calls, we leave those discussions to the labels," Zelnick said.
For now, GTA fans may hope that the GTA 6 will be part of the 93 under development games of Take-Two.
