Take-Two CEO officially announces WWE 2K19 and NBA 2K19… but delays next entry in “one of 2K’s biggest franchises” into 2019

About a year ago, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick confirmed that “a highly anticipated new title from one of 2K’s biggest franchises” would be released in 2018. At the time, fans speculated that the executive was slyly hinting at Borderlands 3 and BioShock 4, but an official announcement never materialized for either title.

Fast forward to this week, and Zelnick once again took the stage to share details about Take-Two’s future.

This time, the CEO told investors that 2K’s mystery sequel will now launch during the “2020 fiscal year” (sometime between April 1, 2019 – March 31, 2020) to give the unknown production team “additional development time” to work on it. All signs still point to Borderlands 3 or BioShock 4 (or both, if we’re being truly optimistic), but it looks like we’ll have to wait a bit longer to play it.

Elsewhere during the presentation, Zelnick revealed that the next entries in the company’s annual franchises, WWE 2K19 and NBA 2K19, will be released this Fall on “To Be Announced” platforms. Not surprising, but nice to know.
