Take-Two’s Boss Seemingly Takes a Subtle Shot at 2025’s Worst-Reviewed Game

Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick said it is getting harder to make blockbuster entertainment hits, but Rockstar has repeatedly done what many others have not.

His remarks were widely read as a dig at former Rockstar staff, especially Leslie Benzies and Build a Rocket Boy after MindsEye’s disastrous launch.

MindsEye was panned at release and has been described as 2025’s worst-reviewed game.

Zelnick also said the next GTA-scale hit could still come from outside Rockstar.
