Quick Glance: 'GTA 6' Publisher Makes Layoffs and Cancels Projects
- Publisher Take-Two Interactive, known for Grand Theft Auto IV, plans to lay off five percent of its workforce by the end of the year and cancel various projects currently in development.
- These decisions were disclosed in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Tuesday, outlining briefly Take-Two's 'cost reduction program.' The company anticipates the plan to save $165 million annually and 'enhance the Company’s margin profile.'
- Several video games in development, including GTA 6, are expected to break sales records upon release next year.
- Even though CEO Strauss Zelnick explicitly stated in February that the company had no plans for job cuts, layoffs are distressing even in the best of times. The impact of these measures on Take-Two's development teams remains to be seen.
