Rockstar's past console-to-PC gaps

Rockstar has launched every recent mainline game on consoles first. Here is how long PC players waited each time:

Game	Console	PC	Gap
GTA IV	Apr 29, 2008	Dec 2, 2008	~7 months
GTA V	Sep 17, 2013	Apr 14, 2015	~19 months
Red Dead Redemption 2	Oct 26, 2018	Nov 5, 2019	~12 months
Red Dead Redemption	May 18, 2010	Oct 29, 2024	14+ years

A Q1 2027 PC launch would be Rockstar's shortest gap yet, roughly 2–4 months. Applying the GTA IV to GTA V range instead gives mid-2027 to mid-2028; our May 2026 analysis used GTA V's gap to estimate Q1–Q2 2028.

What to do if you only have a PC

Nothing announced lets you play GTA 6 on PC at launch. Be wary of "GTA 6 PC download" sites; anything claiming to offer one before Rockstar announces it is fake or malware. Sign up below and we'll email you the moment a PC version is confirmed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is GTA 6 coming to PC?

Not officially yet. Rockstar has only announced GTA 6 for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. Every recent mainline GTA has reached PC after consoles, and Take-Two has said more platform announcements will come "in due time", so a PC version is widely expected but unconfirmed.

When is the GTA 6 PC release date?

There is no official date. The most specific report, from GamesBeat on October 13, 2026, says Rockstar is targeting January to March 2027. Rockstar has not confirmed it. Based on past gaps (7 to 19 months for GTA IV, GTA V and RDR2), anything from mid-2027 to mid-2028 is also plausible.

Why is GTA 6 not on PC at launch?

Rockstar has not given a reason. Its long-standing pattern is to launch on consoles first and bring PC later, which Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick has referred to as Rockstar's established "approach to platforms".

Will GTA 6 be on Steam?

No PC storefronts have been announced. GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2 both launched on PC through Steam, the Epic Games Store and the Rockstar Games Launcher, but nothing is confirmed for GTA 6.

What are the GTA 6 PC system requirements?

Rockstar has not published PC requirements because no PC version has been announced. Any spec lists circulating now are guesses.

When does GTA 6 come out on console?

November 19, 2026, on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
