Take-Two reports $1.39bn net bookings; GTA 5 passes 230 million sold, RDR2 over 87 million

Take-Two reported net bookings of $1.39 billion for the quarter from April 1 to June 30, 2026, in results published on August 7, 2026. The company's release called that slightly above its guidance range, though it was down 3% from $1.42 billion a year earlier. GTA 6 pre-orders opened during that quarter.

Video Games Chronicle reported that Take-Two's earnings presentation put Grand Theft Auto V at more than 230 million units sold to date and Red Dead Redemption 2 at over 87 million. The release itself named NBA 2K and the Grand Theft Auto series first among the largest contributors to net bookings, with the Red Dead Redemption series further down the list. It also recorded a $43.4 million impairment charge after Take-Two decided not to continue an unannounced game from a third-party developer.

The $1.39 billion should not be read as GTA 6 pre-order money. TechRadar, citing Variety, noted that pre-orders were open for only five days of the quarter and that the total was not split by title. TechRadar said the figure reflected better-than-expected results from NBA 2K, up 7%, and the GTA series, up 3%.

On the investor call, according to TechRadar, Zelnick said "the level of pre-orders is unprecedented and astonishing" but gave no number. He added that they were so unprecedented that "we just don't know how it'll translate into sales," and that Take-Two does not believe in "claiming victory before it occurs."

The same release repeated the company's full-year forecast of $8.0 to $8.2 billion in net bookings and the November 19 release date for GTA 6; this site's separate story on the forecast covers that part.

How many people had pre-ordered GTA 6 remained unknown. Take-Two did not say, and nothing in the release or these reports broke the quarter's bookings down by game.
