Rockstar Games is clearly keeping mum on Grand Theft Auto VI, with no significant updates forthcoming in the near future. This measured strategy clearly means letting Mafia: The Old Country , a big new release from Hangar 13, hog the limelight ahead of its trailer reveal and PAX East panel. While spotlighting Mafia, Rockstar would probably steer clear of any in-house competition among its banner titles.
Rockstar most probably keeping GTA VI in check to maximize Mafia's moment
With the massive buzz surrounding Grand Theft Auto VI, any news released by Rockstar would make industry headlines. Nonetheless, Take-Two Interactive, the parent conglomerate of Rockstar and Hangar 13, the studio behind Mafia, seems to be handling its own internal marketing timeline with caution. By not making GTA VI headlines, Rockstar gives Mafia: The Old Country its moment under the spotlight uninterrupted.
This plan comes with the timing of Mafia's trailer and PAX East appearance. It's a welcome chance for the Mafia series to shine, and with a new installment set to breathe life into the franchise, Take-Two's cautious release makes sense. Rockstar's silence also serves to make the Mafia reveal have the most impact.
GTA VI update probable after May 15 earnings call
Unless Rockstar suddenly breaks its silence prior to May 8, it's becoming safer to bet the company won't release any big GTA VI news until after Mafia's prime promotional window. The next natural window for major GTA VI updates is the May 15 Take-Two earnings call, a time often utilized to hint at or reveal big projects.
This implies that Rockstar can continue its marketing campaign for GTA VI in mid-to-late May at the earliest, after Mafia's marketing has picked up. Fans waiting for GTA VI news will have to wait patiently just a little longer.
With Mafia: The Old Country poised to make a big debut, Rockstar's strategic mum on GTA VI appears more deliberate than ever. Giving Mafia its deserved time in the sun prevents internal competition and sets the stage for a cleaner marketing cycle. For now, the wait for GTA VI goes on, but all indications are that there will be a big update once the earnings call dust settles.
