Take-Two Interactive shares soared as much as 10% in post-market after the video game publisher's fiscal fourth quarter's total Net Bookings grew 65% to $1.39 billion, beating Wall Street estimates of $1.34 billion.

"We also issued guidance for Fiscal 2024, which includes Net Bookings in the range of $5.45 billion to $5.55 billion. Our forecast reflects the challenging consumer backdrop, as well as an extension of the development timelines for several high-profile, long-awaited titles in our pipeline," said Strauss Zelnick, chairman and CEO of Take-Two.
Zelnick's comments may be seen as a hint towards the release of Grand Theft Auto VI, though no timeline has been given.
Take-Two shares are up 20% year-to-date.
