Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 38375, member: 636"] The delay of Grand Theft Auto VI will hurt game companies across the industry in 2025. Experts predict that PlayStation and Xbox will sell 700,000 fewer gaming systems because of this schedule change. According to these forecasts, players might buy 21 million fewer games throughout the year. The total money lost reaches almost three billion dollars between hardware and software sales. This creates very different market conditions than companies expected earlier this year. Multiple research firms say Nintendo is the only winner from this delay. The market will grow less than one percent this year instead of the previous higher estimates. Analysts expect much stronger growth next year when GTA VI finally arrives. Reports suggest the game never had a real chance to launch during 2025 as first announced. Fans remain excited about the game despite having to wait longer for its release. [/QUOTE]
