Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnik hinted during an investor call that they are expecting to make a profit during FY 2013. Which means? Yes, GTA V. It’s predecessor was a critically and commercially acclaimed game with sales over 10 million on PS3 and Xbox 360. Analyst Michael Pachter said the game could sell over 18 million units and maybe even 24 million if it maintains a high attach ratio.

According to a Gamespot source, the game is in development and is expected to release next year. It is also rumoured to contain minigames. GTA IV cost $100 million to develop and Pachter believes GTA V has already eaten $80 million of Take-Two’s money.
