Take-Two Interactive Software (TTWO - Free Report) is expected to benefit from the continued expansion of its gaming portfolio.
Shares of the company have gained 3.1% in the year-to-date period against the Zacks Consumer & Discretionary sector’s decline of 2.1% due to the anticipation of upcoming games.
The company has launched Star Wars: Hunters, a competitive battle arena game under its wholly-owned private label, Zynga Inc., in collaboration with Lucasfilm Games.
Available for free on Nintendo Switch, iOS and Android devices, the game is set on the planet Vespaara and invites players to the Arena, a popular galactic sports venue. Here, teams of four engage in fast-paced matches across various battlefields inspired by iconic Star Wars environments, such as the Death Star and Tatooine.
Players can select from a diverse roster of Hunters, each embodying unique Star Wars archetypes like J-3DI, a droid who believes he's a Jedi, and Utooni, a pair of Jawas disguised in a trench coat.
Each Hunter in Star Wars: Hunters comes with distinct abilities and movesets, enhancing the strategic depth of the game. The game offers multiple modes, including Squad Brawl, where teams compete for the most eliminations, as well as Trophy Chase, where squads battle to control the droid TR0-F33.
Take-Two plans to launch 16 games in 2024, including a completely new game from a top-tier studio. The company aims to innovate and offer some fresh and exciting games for gamers to enjoy. This plan would further solidify its gaming portfolio and make it more attractive to investors.
