For scale, Grand Theft Auto V sold more than 11 million copies on day one in 2013. The latest projection has helped push Take-Two toward its highest share price since May, when a strong quarterly financial report briefly lifted the stock before shareholders sold off gains.
Analyst guidance on Take-Two has held an Overweight rating with a $280 price target, roughly 20% above recent trading levels. That outlook also pushed back on investor worries that GTA 6 could hurt the company's mobile business, arguing the audiences are very different.
Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick appeared in a viral TikTok over the weekend and reiterated that GTA 6 is set for November 19. That public restatement, alongside growing shareholder confidence and word that a reliable insider still expects the game on schedule, may be feeding the rally even as Rockstar itself stays quiet.
