The year that has just started promises to be a great year for video games: Fable, Death Stranding 2, Ghost of Yotei, Metroid Prime 4, Avowed, Crimson Desert, Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, Metal Gear Solid Delta, South of Midnight, The Alters, Monster Hunter Wildsthe year promises fun video fireworks… which should reach its pinnacle with the release of the highly anticipated GTA 6. It's an understatement to say that the arrival of the next “banger” of Rockstar Games panics the analysts' counters. The latter already expect that GTA 6 will shatter even the indecent scores of its predecessor, with a turnover of 3.2 billion dollars in its first year, or almost a third of the cumulative revenue of GTA 5 since. its launch!
Suffice it to say that the good economic health of the JV sector in 2025 will rely largely on the GTA 6 steamroller, knowing that the game should sell several tens of millions of copies in just a few months. In fact, no other cultural product can claim to reach such heights, not even the two Avatar films (whose cumulative revenue exceeds $5.6 billion, compared to more than $10 billion for GTA V). Obviously GTA 6 will still have to come out this year. Rockstar has promised a fall release, but in the JV sector, this type of promise only binds those who want to believe them…
