Don't Expect Judas Or BioShock 4 For At Least Another Year

GTA VI is expected to release on November 19, 2026, driving expectations for Take-Two’s coming fiscal year. Additional contributions are expected from mobile and sports titles, including NBA 2K27, PGA TOUR 2K27, and WWE 2K27, plus two mobile games and one platform extension described as a port. Red Dead Redemption 2 may also perform strongly after its best year since launch. Judas and BioShock 4 are not expected for at least another 12 months, remaining listed as TBA. Take-Two also projects a larger slate for fiscal 2028 and 2029, including new mobile games, multiple sports releases, core new IPs, and many existing IP sequels, remakes, remasters, and platform extensions.

"The coming fiscal year is going to be absolutely huge for Take-Two Interactive thanks to GTA VI (still securely planned for a November 19, 2026 release date), and with the usual contributions from Take-Two's mobile and sports games. Red Dead Redemption 2 also might pull its weight, as it's now coming off of its best year since launch. But there are two upcoming Take-Two games that you shouldn't expect to see for at least another 12 months: Judas and BioShock 4."

"Take-Two's Q4 and full-year earnings, posted today, which stated that six games are planned for the coming fiscal year apart from GTA 6. Those six games are made up of two mobile games, three sports games ( NBA 2K27, PGA TOUR 2K27, and WWE 2K27), and one "platform extension," or essentially a port of something that's already out. None of those would describe either Judas or BioShock, both of which are still listed as TBA on Take-Two's lineup."

"It does look a little brighter for the years immediately after, as Take-Two states that in fiscal '28 and '29 it plans to release one new mobile game, five sports games, three "core new IPs" and "13 core existing IPs, which includes 7 sequels and 6 remakes, remasters, and platform extensions." Judas and BioShock taking a bit longer than folks would like isn't really surprising."

"For one, even if both games were ready to launch right now, it would make some amount of sense to push them as far away from GTA VI as possible, as there's likely to be some meaningful audience crossover. We also know that both games have been in some level of development distress in recent years. Judas has already taken a decade of work, while BioShock has been in development since 2019 and even Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick admitted he was "deeply disappointed" in how development has gone."
