Don't expect GTA 6 to appear on PS Plus or Game Pass from day one – Stroz Zelnick

Zelink suggests in his latest interview that GTA 6 will not be released from day one on the monthly PS Plus and Xbox Game Pass services.
Take Two is still adamant about its monthly PS Plus and Xbox Game Pass services, even after the good growth of those services.
During the quarterly earnings call last Wednesday, company president Sterse Zelnick received a question from an investor about his position on monthly services, to which he responded that these services are still small projects to invest in. Despite other factors in the company's other titles, it's impossible to see first-class AAA games from day one. Zelnick said:
We won't be making our major headlines available on the day and date. We're happy to support the business with our other headline subscription services in due course. We believe this is the right way to support subscription services, and these monthly subscription services are still a small business for us.
Putting GTA 6 on PS Plus and Xbox Game Pass makes no sense.
Zelnick didn't say anything new about Take Two's stance on releasing its major titles from day one on its monthly services. The company still maintains a rigid stance on these services, which, according to its statements, are a very small investment area.
Zelnick continued by saying he's not worried about monthly services like PS Plus and Xbox Game Pass starting to impact the full-price gaming market, adding that they're still maintaining their position on the matter until the company sees that this space is a good fit for its aspirations.
Rockstar is still keeping the GTA 6 game secret, having confirmed its existence in development a year ago.
During an investor meeting last Wednesday, Zelink confirmed that the game's development process was not affected by the recent leaks, but the impact of these leaks was severe on the development team's souls.
Some reliable sources covering Rockstar Games news have said that there is a strong possibility that the game has reached an advanced stage in the development process and has become playable.
Another source believes Rockstar is currently polishing the game and fixing some minor technical issues. Meanwhile, expectations are growing for the game's reveal later this year.
