Take-Two looks at GTA 5 and Mafia 3 as two different games and won’t compare the two, ever.During an earnings call following last night’s Take-Two financial report, CEO Strauss Zelnick dismissed any attempt at comparing Mafia 3 to Rockstar’s iconic GTA series.“Mafia 3 is a completely different experience. I wouldn’t compare it to anything else out there. The reveal [at Gamescom] was great, but it stands alone.”Zelnick added that Rockstar and Hangar 13 (Mafia 3 developers) do not share technology and described 2K and Rockstar as “two distinct labels”.“We don’t use any other game in the same sentence as Grand Theft Auto. It is the industry’s standard-bearer. It’s not up for comparison,” added Zelnick.In addition, Take-Two narrowed down a release window for Mafia 3. The company expects it to ship during its fiscal year 2017. Which means it will not ship earlier than April 2016.
