Although gamers have been expecting it for a while, it was still shocking to hear or read Take-Two Interactive outright saying that it’s not a video game company. Rather, the publisher of the gaming phenomenon known as “Red Dead Redemption” 2 claims that it’s actually an entertainment company. Will this prove troublesome for fans of its titles?
Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick recently spoke with the KindredCast podcast, where he made the staggering statement. Although companies express desires to diversify all the time, they don’t often outright deny the perception that they have built since the beginning. This is exactly what the “Red Dead Redemption” 2 publisher just did.
"We're not a video game company. We're not an interactive entertainment company. We're an entertainment company," Zelnick said. "Our teams have proven that our titles can be the most important entertainment properties on Earth. And yet, it's just the beginning of this industry, and therefore, I think, for us."
Zelnich is not exactly exaggerating here either. One of its other games titles, “Grand Theft Auto V: San Andres,” is still selling amazingly well five years after release. It even reached 98 million copies sold, thus giving Wii Sports a run for its money, GameSpot reports. Its online multiplayer mode has been a particularly big hit, and “Red Dead Redemption” 2 is expected to see the same level of performance.
This is where things can get particularly dicey, with fans possibly not liking the idea of one the biggest players in the industry seeing itself other than a video game company. Then again, this is not the first time that Zelnich has expressed a similar sentiment since he actually did so before. With “Red Dead Redemption” 2 launching in October, though, this might not be the best time to rock the boat.
Speaking of which, many have been asking if the game is coming to the PC and it seems that this is not the case just yet, Twinfinite reports. “Red Dead Redemption” 2 is currently slated for launch on the PS4 and the Xbox One, but a PC release is always possible in the future.
