- Take-Two reported for the quarter a GAAP net loss of 73 cents per share on $1.77 billion in revenue, with net bookings of $1.96 billion and non-GAAP earnings of $116.7 million.
- Take-Two also revised its release calendar to include 'BioShock next iteration' and 'Top Goal', both with TBA launch dates, after an earlier May 2026 delay caused a $2.7 billion impact.
