GTA 6 Does Not Scare Ubisoft, CEO Says
Ubisoft is not afraid of the upcoming launch of GTA 6 in 2025. CEO Yves Guillemot said when a game on the size and scale of GTA releases, it can help bring people back to gaming. And more people in the market means more money spent across not just GTA 6 but other games, too.
“What we’ve seen in the past is each time there is a big release like GTA, there are more and more people coming back to the industry and that helps other games to sell as well,” he said during Ubisoft’s latest earnings briefing.
He said Ubisoft is unaware of when in 2025 GTA 6 will be release, but suggested it is likely to be closer to FY26 (April 1, 2025-March 31, 2026) than FY 2024 (April 1, 2024-March 31, 2025).
