GTA 6 PC Version Gets Official Update From Rockstar Parent Company

It is hard to believe that we are mere days away from the launch of Grand Theft Auto VI. After waiting for well over a decade since the last entry, and having to face multiple delays, we are finally on the homestretch as the biggest game launch of all time is set to take place on 19 November.

However, with Grand Theft Auto VI launching on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S on launch day, PC players are left wondering when they will finally be able to dive into the Rockstar Games’ title.

In Grand Theft Auto V, launched back in 2013, it took nineteen months for the PC port to be released after the initial console launch. However, fans are hoping that history will not repeat itself with Grand Theft Auto VI, and luckily, we now have an update from Rockstar’s parent company, Take-Two Interactive.

In an interview with Variety, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick spoke about the upcoming launch of Grand Theft Auto VI, and was asked one of the biggest questions on our minds: will the game be launching on other platforms other than PlayStation 5 and the Xbox Series X/S? Not only that, but would a physical disc ever be made available?

However, Zelnick was, once again, reluctant to answer, simply saying, “information always comes from our labels.” In other words, it will be up to Rockstar to share information on a potential PC launch date. However, at the time of writing, Rockstar has not released an official statement, so we remain in the dark when it comes to one of our biggest questions ahead of GTA VI‘s launch.

What we do know is that GTA 6 is set to launch on 19 November 2026, on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S at $79.99 (Standard Edition) and $99.99 (Ultimate Edition). Furthermore, Rockstar has made it clear that those purchasing the physical editions will not receive a disk, but instead a digital download code, much to fan’s dismay.

Whilst we already know that fans had to wait well over a year for a PC port of Grand Theft Auto V, it is worrying to see that Rockstar is reluctant to share information on how long it will take for Grand Theft Auto VI. You would think that advancements in technology would see it arrive to another platform a lot sooner, but, then again, it is expected to be the biggest game of all time, and so porting it to a whole new system may be a lot more difficult than we can imagine.

Nevertheless, the call for a PC port is one of Rockstar’s biggest requests right now, and in the last few days before the launch of Grand Theft Auto VI, we can only hope that it is something the company will address once the launch has come and gone (and hopefully goes as smoothly as possible.) For now, PC users will have to stay patient to see when they will be able to head back to Vice City.
