## Key points

- GTA 6 launches on 19 November.
- Zelda and WoW have less direct competition.
- 15% of intended GTA 6 buyers also plan to buy Zelda.

## Summary

Several games have moved their release dates to avoid launching alongside Grand Theft Auto 6 on 19 November, potentially leaving November’s major releases with less direct competition. Circana analyst Mat Piscatella says the decision to move depends on each publisher, and that GTA 6 could also boost industry spending and bring more players into gaming.

Nintendo’s Ocarina of Time remake is due on 8 November for Switch 2, while World of Warcraft: Forever arrives on PC on 4 November. The platforms and audiences differ, and Piscatella says about 15% of people who intend to buy GTA 6 also intend to buy the Zelda remake. He notes that the games share some appeal among older and more affluent players, while Nintendo’s first-party titles have a strong position on its own platforms.
