Take-Two CEO of Bullish in his games, but be careful for the customs tariff | Strauss Zelnik


Strauss Zelnick, CEO of Take-Two Interactive Software, has talked about the recent plans of Triple-A publisher with their upcoming titles and his opinion of potential drivers on keyboards.

I met Zelnick for a short time today and asked if Take-Two would support Nintendo Switch 2 in a big way. He said he could not comment on their plans. “Historically, we have supported all the main platforms and selectively supported Nintendo platforms. For example, CIV 7, which is present early today, will be available for switching. So I will have every belief that we will support switch 2.”

I asked whether it would be reassured that the mafia dates: the old country and the Grand Theft Auto VI will not slip, due to the lack of a launch date for these games yet. Repeat Take-Two only its expectations that a mafia will appear for the first time in the summer and the GTA VI will appear in the fall.

“It is always the possibilities in our business. However, we have given the narrow window to the upcoming addresses. After all, it is February and we have set the release schedule through the end of the evaluation year.”

When asked whether he was concerned about the definitions suggested by Donald Trump and whether it would affect gaming devices or disk sales, he said: “I am not sure that it will affect the material tablets. I think the definitions can be negative for the console sales. As an economist, I am not a great fan of commercial wars.

Take-Two confirmed that Michael Condry, founder of the Union 31 studio, left the company. It also announced that the studio makes the spirit of the project. When asked, “We are grateful to Michael Condry. He has done a great job for us. Bring us a project and create a team. He will continue to advise us in the future of the project spirit. We will manage it. The transfer team leads” the completion of that game.

As for the consumer direct mobile sales, I noticed that the company said it was growing and asked whether he was seen as a strategic opportunity.

He said he expected to be a direct part of the company’s mobile platform more than it is currently.

However, it will definitely not be the lion’s share of sales. We are still very happy to work with our retail partners, and we will continue to do so around the world. ”

As for the mobile trends that expressed Zynga sales, he said: “Our point of view is that the mobile phone has returned to modest growth, but we had no kind of strong wind in the industry that everyone was enjoying until mid -2012.

“So the good news is that it is due to growth. The other news is that it is still a fairly difficult market. He said that our repeated consumer spending increased about 6 % in a quarter.” It was somewhat shy about our expectations. On the other hand, we achieved this huge blow to the great matches and performance factory in many titles such as toon Blast and Toy Blast. So we are satisfied with Zinga. We are happy that it is part of our wallet. We have what we think will be the next great versions. At the same time, the industry was slightly challenged. “
