GTA 6 Delay Will Cost Games Industry $2.7B, But Take-Two Swears It's On Schedule - IGN Daily Fix

Grand Theft Auto 6's delay disappointed a lot of gamers, but probably disappointed retailers even more. Analysts at Ampere are suggesting that the delay will cost the games industry around $2.7 billion dollars. The money isn't gone, however, merely moved to next year when GTA 6 drops on May 26. Speaking of that date, Take‑Two CEO Strauss Zelnick is confident that Rockstar Games can hit that date. Let's hope so—there's $2.7 billion riding on it. And finally, Nintendo will make a return to the Gamescom show in Germany this year. Nintendo skipped last year's show, but with a new console and a handful of brand new first‑party games coming this year, they have plenty to show off.
