The coming fiscal year is going to be absolutely huge for Take-Two Interactive thanks to GTA VI (still securely planned for a November 19, 2026 release date), and with the usual contributions from Take-Two’s mobile and sports games. Red Dead Redemption 2 also might pull its weight, as it’s now coming off of its best year since launch. But there are two upcoming Take-Two games that you shouldn’t expect to see for at least another 12 months: Judas and BioShock 4.
This comes from Take-Two’s Q4 and full-year earnings, posted today, which stated that six games are planned for the coming fiscal year apart from GTA 6. Those six games are made up of two mobile games, three sports games (NBA 2K27, PGA TOUR 2K27, and WWE 2K27), and one “platform extension,” or essentially a port of something that’s already out.
None of those would describe either Judas or BioShock, both of which are still listed as TBA on Take-Two’s lineup. It does look a little brighter for the years immediately after, as Take-Two states that in fiscal ’28 and ’29 it plans to release one new mobile game, five sports games, three “core new IPs” and “13 core existing IPs, which includes 7 sequels and 6 remakes, remasters, and platform extensions.”
Judas and BioShock taking a bit longer than folks would like isn’t really surprising. For one, even if both games were ready to launch right now, it would make some amount of sense to push them as far away from GTA VI as possible, as there’s likely to be some meaningful audience crossover. We also know that both games have been in some level of development distress in recent years. Judas has already taken a decade of work, while BioShock has been in development since 2019 and even Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick admitted he was “deeply disappointed” in how development has gone.
Take-Two Interactive’s report for the last year will likely satisfy shareholders while they wait for GTA 6. Total net bookings for the quarter were $1.58 billion and flat compared to the same quarter last year, but full-year net bookings were up 19 percent from last year to $6.72 billion. Grand Theft Auto 5 is now up to nearly 230 million units sold to date, while Red Dead Redemption 2 just had its best year since its launch year, and has now sold over 85 million copies. That pushes it past Wii Sports (as spotted by IGN) to become the fourth best-selling game of all time, following Tetris, Minecraft, and of course, GTA 5. Take-Two also reaffirmed GTA 6’s November 19 release today, and shared a projection of $8 billion – $8.2 billion in net bookings next year, which would be up roughly 20 percent from this year.
