U.S. stock markets didn’t open Saturday, so Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. had the weekend to digest a key week ahead of its Nov. 19 “Grand Theft Auto VI” launch. Pricing news landed, preorders started, but shares finished the week nearly unchanged.

Take-Two Interactive Software shares jumped Thursday after Rockstar Games announced Grand Theft Auto VI preorders will start June 25. The company keeps its plan to release the game on Nov. 19. Investors have been waiting for more detail on the videogame’s timing.

Take-Two Interactive Software shares moved before Friday’s Nasdaq session, as the company stuck with its planned Nov. 19 release for Grand Theft Auto VI. That steadied some nerves after Take-Two’s yearly outlook came in below analyst estimates. Take-Two shares finished Thursday at $238.08, according to the company’s investor page, then gained roughly 7% after hours on the numbers.

Take-Two Interactive Software said Thursday it’s sticking with the Nov. 19 launch date for Grand Theft Auto VI and posted quarterly bookings that beat Wall Street’s targets. That news gave investors another look at the company’s biggest upcoming title. Shares gained roughly 8% in after-hours trading, although Take-Two projected fiscal 2027 bookings below what analysts had forecast.

Take-Two Interactive Software surged roughly 6.5% by midday Thursday, sparked by chatter around a leaked Best Buy affiliate campaign hinting Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders might go live next week. Shares changed hands at $241.68, pushing the company’s market cap up to around $44.8 billion.

Take-Two Interactive Software dropped roughly 1% in early trading Tuesday, cooling off from a rally that followed new Wall Street chatter around the possibility of Grand Theft Auto VI launching at an $80 price point. CEO Strauss Zelnick called anticipation for the next Rockstar Games release both “exciting. And terrifying.”
