American video game holding company based in New York City, owner of Rockstar Games, 2K and Zynga
Three major nostalgia-driven releases have landed or are arriving in November 2026: Blizzard has launched World of Warcraft: Forever and reported record peak and returning players; Nintendo has released a full remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time that has sold more than 5.2 million copies in four days and earned outstanding reviews; Rockstar’s Grand Theft Auto VI will ship on Nov. 19 with preorders far exceeding expectations.
Rockstar Games has apologised after leaked Grand Theft Auto 6 footage circulated online. Netflix will host a special extended look ahead of the game’s November release, while the company investigates the source of the leaks and legal steps are being considered.
Rockstar Games has opened digital-only preorders for Grand Theft Auto VI, offering a $79.99 Standard Edition and a $99.99 Ultimate Edition for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. The game has faced repeated delays, an extensive leak campaign, and accusations of union-busting after Rockstar fired more than 30 employees; a Netflix preview event and leaked clips have already circulated.
Rockstar North workers have testified at an employment tribunal in Glasgow, with claims that some were unfairly dismissed for trade union activity. Rockstar denies the claims, saying dismissals followed gross misconduct after sharing confidential information. The tribunal is ongoing as GTA VI nears release.
Netflix has announced significant leadership changes and a major round of layoffs as it grapples with slowing engagement and fierce competition. The company has replaced Bela Bajaria with Peter Rice and is restructuring its film unit, while still pursuing a streaming-first strategy and exploring limited theatrical windows for certain titles.
