So we're not getting GTA 6 on PC until 2026 at the very earliest, right?

Well we called it. Grand Theft Auto 6 now has a release window, but only for some. In a press release accompanying the first trailer, Rockstar is careful to omit two very important letters. «Grand Theft Auto VI is coming to PlayStation 5 computer entertainment systems and Xbox Series X|S games and entertainment systems in 2025,» the studio announces. So what about PC?

I don't think it's even a question as to whether a PC version will be released. GTA 5 is, right now, the sixth most played game on Steam by concurrent players. It's in the top 20 of the Steam global top sellers list twice—once for the standard version, and once for the premium edition. It's a massive success that's earned a lot of money for Rockstar—not least from its online mode's microtransactions. This is a studio that loves to persuade players to double-dip on different versions, and it'd be wild if it didn't do the same again here.

The question, then, isn't so much 'if' as 'when', and the bad news is that the answer is very, very unlikely to be 2025.

Let's let history be our guide here. Grand Theft Auto 5 released on PS3 and Xbox 360 in September 2013. The following year, in November 2014, it released on PS4 and Xbox One. The PC version didn't arrive until April 2015—a full 19 months after its console debut. Rockstar's other major release of the decade, Red Dead Redemption 2, was a little kinder to us. The console release was October 2018, with the PC version arriving a 'mere' 13 months later, in November 2019.

Realistically, then, it would be fair to assume that GTA 6 will come to PC in either 2026 or 2027. Personally, I'll stake my claim to the former. Chances are that GTA 6's console release will be in the first few months of 2025—at least if
