Check out the state of Civilization 7 at launch for what Take-Two can force. The game badly needed a delay, but didn't get one. I'm assuming the GTA delay factored into that decision. Although Civilization isn't nearly the cash cow that GTA is, this is the latest entry from a 30+ year old series and the biggest name in the 4X strategy genre.

For what it's worth, Civ 7 is a much better game now, after additional content (some free as an apology) and big monthly patches.
