Why GTA 6's Release Doesn't Scare Ubisoft
When a game as big as GTA VI comes out, it helps the gaming business overall, Ubisoft CEO says

Guillemot went on to say that historical trends for Ubisoft's business bear this out. He said Ubisoft's games enjoyed "very good sales" around the time that GTA V came out in 2013, while its titles also performed well when the GTA V re-release for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S launched in March 2022.
"It is something that is counter-intuitive but is working for us in general," Guillemot said.
The company went on to say that Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag, which was released a month after GTA V in 2013, enjoyed record sales for the series at the time. Ubisoft's overall philosophy is to focus on delivering high-quality game experiences even when the competition is strong, the company said.
Ubisoft has not, however, announced its full game release pipeline for 2025, so it's too soon to say what Ubisoft game might be competing with GTA VI. The game is set for release during Fall 2025, but every Rockstar game in the past decade has been delayed so there is a chance this happens again with GTA VI.
