Take-Two reports its last quarterly results before GTA 6 on Monday, November 9, 2026. These GTA 6 Take-Two earnings will not include a single copy sold, because the quarter ended on September 30, but the call is the last scheduled moment before launch where executives may talk about pre-orders, the November 19 date, PC or online plans. Here is when it happens, what the numbers are expected to look like, and what to listen for.
Key facts
- Take-Two reports its second fiscal quarter of 2027 after the market closes on Monday, November 9, 2026.
- The conference call starts at 4:30 PM Eastern, with a webcast on Take-Two’s investor site.
- The quarter covers July to September 2026, so it includes pre-orders but no GTA 6 sales.
- Take-Two’s own forecast for the quarter is $1.62 to $1.67 billion in net bookings.
- Its full-year forecast is $8.0 to $8.2 billion in net bookings, which includes the GTA 6 launch.
When are the GTA 6 Take-Two earnings?
Take-Two announced on October 13 that it will release its results for the quarter ended September 30, 2026 after the market closes on Monday, November 9. The conference call begins at 4:30 PM Eastern Time, which is 9:30 PM in London and 10:30 PM in Paris, with a live listen-only webcast and a replay on its investor relations site.
That is ten days before GTA 6 launches and the day before digital pre-load opens on November 10.
Why this report has no GTA 6 sales
Take-Two’s fiscal year ends on March 31, so its second quarter runs from July to September. GTA 6 launches on November 19, which falls in the third fiscal quarter, from October to December. The first GTA 6 sales figures will therefore come in Take-Two’s next report, expected early in 2027.
That is why these Take-Two earnings say very little about GTA 6 sales themselves. What this quarter can show is the effect of pre-orders, which opened on June 25, and the performance of Take-Two’s other games, including GTA V and GTA Online.
What Take-Two has forecast
| Period | Net bookings forecast | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Second quarter, July to September 2026 | $1.62 to $1.67 billion | Take-Two, August 7 |
| Full fiscal year, to March 2027 | $8.0 to $8.2 billion | Take-Two, August 7 |
| First quarter, April to June 2026 (actual) | $1.39 billion | Take-Two, August 7 |
Net bookings is the measure Take-Two uses for sales of products and services during a period. In August, Reuters reported that the second-quarter forecast came in below analysts’ average expectation. The full-year forecast is where GTA 6 shows up, since it covers the launch.
What did Take-Two say about GTA 6 last time?
On the August call, CEO Strauss Zelnick described GTA 6 pre-orders as unprecedented, but declined to give a number and noted that pre-orders can be canceled and are not final sales. Our look at GTA 6 pre-order estimates covers the third-party figures from Sensor Tower, which Take-Two has not confirmed.
Other signals have arrived since. Circana reported on October 28 that 29% of US console and PC gamers plan to buy GTA 6, the highest purchase intent it has recorded.
What to watch in the GTA 6 Take-Two earnings call
- The launch date: any reaffirmation of November 19. A change this close to launch would be a surprise, given the pre-load date and launch-week events already set.
- Pre-order comments: whether Zelnick gives a figure this time, or repeats that pre-orders are not sales.
- Full-year forecast: whether Take-Two raises, keeps or lowers the $8.0 to $8.2 billion range.
- PC: Take-Two has said Rockstar starts on console. Our GTA 6 PC release article tracks every statement.
- Online: GTA 6 launches as a single-player game, and Take-Two has said it expects no recurrent consumer spending with this launch. See our online multiplayer explainer.
- What comes next: Rockstar leads told Bloomberg in October that the next game will not take another eight years, because the engine, tools and team carry over.
How to follow the call
The results are published as a press release after the market closes, followed by the call at 4:30 PM Eastern. Take-Two streams it live, listen-only, on its investor relations site, and a replay stays available afterward. The GTA 6 Take-Two earnings call usually lasts about an hour, with prepared remarks first and questions from analysts after.
Why it matters to players
Earnings calls are aimed at investors, but they are often where Take-Two confirms dates and plans first. The August call is where Zelnick described pre-orders as unprecedented, and the shareholder meeting in September is where he called GTA 6 a single-player experience. We will update our GTA 6 release date page with anything new from the call.
What is still unknown
- Whether Take-Two will share pre-order or sales figures.
- Whether the full-year forecast changes.
