Take-Two Loses Nearly $1 Billion in Market Value, Shares Drop By 2.21% Following Massive GTA 6 Leaks

Covered by 2 sources · 2 articles

Alleged GTA 6 gameplay footage began circulating this week ahead of the game's official August 27 reveal, which will feature an extended trailer debuting on Netflix. The leak surfaced before Rockstar's planned marketing push, and the uncontrolled footage release corresponded with a notable market reaction: Take-Two's stock price declined 2.21% during trading, wiping roughly $1 billion from the company's market value. The timing suggests investor concern over losing control of the game's narrative momentum just days before the scheduled announcement.

TL;DR
  • Unauthorized GTA 6 gameplay footage emerged days before Rockstar's planned official trailer, disrupting the company's reveal strategy.
  • Take-Two's share price dropped 2.21%, erasing approximately $1 billion in market capitalization during the trading session.
  • The leak preceded a Netflix premiere of extended gameplay footage scheduled for August 27.
