About

Founded by Ryan Brant in 1993, Take-Two Interactive established itself in its early years by publishing and distributing titles such as Hell: A Cyberpunk Thriller and porting games like D to Western markets. The company grew significantly through acquisitions, most notably establishing the Rockstar Games label in 1998. Today, it stands as one of the largest video game publishers in the world.
During its initial expansion, the publisher secured distribution rights and developed titles across various platforms. Early releases associated with the company's library include the NES title Tom and Jerry (1992), the PC release Pro Pinball (1996), and Nintendo 64 games such as Bass Hunter 64 (1997). The company also secured publishing rights for console ports of major properties, including Duke Nukem (1997) for the PlayStation.
To diversify its portfolio, the publisher established the 2K label in 2005, which manages popular sports franchises like NBA 2K alongside critically acclaimed series such as BioShock, Borderlands, and Sid Meier's Civilization. Further corporate growth was achieved through the acquisition of Private Division, focusing on independent games, and mobile gaming giant Zynga in 2022. Operating through these distinct publishing labels, the corporation maintains a massive global footprint, managing intellectual properties that span PC, console, and mobile platforms.
