Take-Two Interactive's share price slipped to $236, a decline of more than 6% year‑to‑date, after gameplay footage from the upcoming Grand Theft Auto VI began circulating online earlier this week.

The game is slated for a public reveal on August 27, followed by an extended trailer on Netflix, and is scheduled for release on November 19 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.

Take-Two reported a loss of more than $30 million in the most recent three‑month period, with net bookings falling. Chief executive Strauss Zelnick sold $10 million of shares, according to the company's filing. The Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan bought nearly 150,000 shares worth more than $37 million.

The initial leak wave began earlier this week and generated numerous headlines, including jokes from United States officials. A similar leak occurred in September 2022, which Zelnick described as "really frustrating and upsetting," though that incident did not affect the company's finances. Rockstar Games has said it is testing the title on the forthcoming Switch 2, but no official announcement has been made.

Take-Two's stock is up 3.3% over the past year and about 50% over the previous five years, having risen from roughly $18 per share when GTA V launched in 2013 to above $235 today.
