In a recent exclusive interview with "The Game Business", Arrowhead Game Studios CEO Shams Jorjani was asked whether the delay of "GTA6" would affect the operational planning of "Battlegrounds 2".Giorgiani admitted that the industry generally believes that this new "Grand Theft Auto" will "block the sunshine of the entire gaming industry", but for now, the delay has gained a valuable "six months of golden development period" for Arrowhead.

When asked how to deal with the delay of "GTA6", Giorgiani said that the company usually "does not pay too much attention to competing products released at the same time, but "GTA" is indeed difficult to ignore."The CEO added: "We will not rashly adjust our plans until we confirm that the new release date is stable, and it seems that the new date should not change again."

"GTA6" has been confirmed to be postponed to November 19, 2026.In this regard, Giorgiani said: "Come back in May next year and ask us about our specific response plan. At this stage, we will still proceed with the work in November as originally planned."

Looking back on his experience at Paradox, Giorgiani pointed out that the company's fourth quarter performance has always been strong due to the lack of competition from similar strategy games in the December schedule.With its unique audience positioning, Parados does not need to worry about the impact of "GTA" - the two "target media are different, and the opinion leaders they cooperate with are completely different."But Giorgiani emphasized that although manufacturers like Paradox can sit back and relax, "this will be a nightmare for all other game manufacturers."

At present, "Jedi Submarine 2" is maintaining an update frequency of "about once every two weeks", and it is expected to restart the release of new content in December.Although the official plan has not yet been revealed, recent clues about light cult believers and intelligence including secret war bonds on the lava planet have spread like wildfire.
