Six weeks after the giveaway in EGS, GTAV sales exceeded the same period in any previous year. In addition, for the first quarter of the current fiscal year, the action movie Rockstar sold better than any other first quarter since its release in 2013.
Red Dead Redemption 2 sales in the first quarter of this fiscal year were twice the sales in the first quarter of the last fiscal year. The game also attracted twice as many users as a year earlier.
GTAV will launch on Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 in the second half of 2023. Nextgen versions will receive technical and visual improvements, as well as increased performance. GTA Online, in turn, will receive additional exclusive content for new consoles and PCs.
A standalone version of GTA Online will be available for free to PS5 owners for the first three months. At the same time, the executive director of Take Two, Strauss Zelnik, expressed confidence that in the future, other old games of the company will be released on the next generation consoles.
Pricing must reflect the quality of the experience and we strive to provide the best experience in the industry. From our point of view, this is a very modest price change, given that prices have not changed for a very long time.
