Will GTA 6 Come to PC? Everything We Know About a PC Release

GTA VI launches first on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S — but what about PC? Here is the full picture on a likely PC release, based on Rockstar's track record and what has actually been confirmed.

The short answer

Yes, a PC version is widely expected — but it is not part of the November 19, 2026 launch. Rockstar has only officially confirmed PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S for day one.

Why a PC release is near-certain — eventually

Every modern Rockstar open-world game has reached PC, just later than consoles:

  • GTA V launched on PS3/Xbox 360 in September 2013; the PC version arrived in April 2015 — about 18 months later.
  • Red Dead Redemption 2 launched on consoles in October 2018; PC followed in November 2019 — roughly 12 months later.

    • That pattern points to a GTA VI PC release somewhere in the 12–18 months after console launch, putting it plausibly in late 2027 or 2028. Treat any specific date you see as speculation until Rockstar says otherwise.

    Why Rockstar staggers PC releases

    The delayed-PC strategy is deliberate:

  • It maximises console hardware and pre-order sales in the launch window
  • It gives the studio time to build the kind of polished, heavily-optioned PC port Rockstar is known for
  • It creates a second major sales moment a year or so later

    • What a PC version would likely include

    If history holds, expect the PC edition to ship with:

  • Uncapped frame rates and ultrawide support
  • Higher-resolution textures and extended draw distances
  • A photo/Rockstar Editor-style toolset
  • Eventual mod support through the community

    • Bottom line

    PC players almost certainly get GTA VI — just not on day one. The smart move is to plan for a console launch in November 2026 and a PC release roughly a year or more after.

    We will update this page the moment Rockstar officially confirms a PC version or window.
