Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick has said that the company “fully expects” to support Switch 2.
Speaking during the company’s latest financial results, Zelnick said that the company is very likely to support the platform.
WhileTake-Twohas yet to announce any titles forNintendo‘s new system, Zelnick referenced that Civilization 7 will be released on the originalNintendo Switch, which could suggest that the series will also make it toSwitch 2.
“We’ve had obviously a long-standing relationship with Nintendo,” Zelnick said. “We’ve supported the platform when it made sense for the individual release.”
While Take-Two never released its biggest game, the 210 million unit-selling GTA 5, it did release severalBorderlands, NBA2K, and WWE 2K titles for Switch.
Zelnick also credited Nintendo’s changing audience as to why the company expects to support Nintendo’s next console.
“There was a time when Nintendo platforms were geared at younger audiences, that was reflected in our release schedule. Today, with Switch and potentially with Switch 2, the Switch device can support any audience.”
Nintendoofficially revealed Switch 2last month, with a teaser video showing the console and Joy-Cons. No release date was given, but Nintendo plans to reveal more information about the console in aNintendo Directbroadcast in April.
Alongside Take-Two’s results,Strauss Zelnickhas said that not only does he thinkAI won’t lead to job losses, he believes it could lead to increased employment.
