After reports of GTA 6 pre-orders going live on May 18, thanks to what appears to be an early email from an affiliate partner marketplace, the stock of publisher Take-Two Interactive has risen by nearly 5% on Thursday.

As of writing, Take-Two Interactive's stock prices have jumped by $10.79 per share to $237.78. That jump added nearly $2 billion in market value to the company in just a matter of hours. While prices are expected to fall slightly throughout the day's trading, it's clear that the excitement surrounding the upcoming game is reaching a fever pitch, even in the stock market.

Take-Two Interactive's next earnings call is scheduled for Thursday, May 21. That's when the company will announce its full forecast for the upcoming fiscal year, which includes GTA 6.

This is nasty from a gamer perspective... and totally understandable from a investor perpective.

11 million copies is difficult for any generation.

11 million copies is difficult for any generation.

nah, if games like pragmata, clair obscure, lies of P can move millions of copies sold being new IPs a juggernaut like GTA 6 ll outsold 11 million copies with two hands tied to its back.

fucking Pokemon ZA sold 12 million copies looking and performing like shit, GTA6 ll do at least double day one.

It will probably be the best selling game of all time and the highest grossing video game ever. Must be good being the Take Two CEO at the moment.

Felt nice checking my brokerage account and seeing it up 7%. Too bad I didn't buy more.
