Take-Two’s CEO: “Rockstar has completed the development of GTA VI.”

The game, set to launch on November 19th, was delayed twice. Based on that line from CEO Strauss Zelnick, which he said on today’s Q2 fiscal year 2027 earnings call, seems like that’s not happening again. Pre-orders for the game are tracking “far above” initial expectations. Zelnick closed the call by saying that “I know you all are going to have a great time playing GTA VI while you’re at home for the holidays.”

Billboard charts will include YouTube’s streaming data again starting next year.

YouTube’s data is returning after Billboard changed how it counts ad-supported streams in chart rankings. Starting in January, 1,000 paid streams will be counted the same as 1,500 ad-supported streams, a narrower gap than the previous ratio, which YouTube said ignored “the massive engagement from fans who don’t have a subscription.” Disclosure: The Verge and Billboard are both part of Penske Media Corporation [Link: YouTube streaming data returns to Billboard charts, ending major disagreement | https://techcrunch.com/2026/11/09/youtube-streaming-data-returns-to-billboard-charts-ending-major-disagreement/ | TechCrunch]
