Rockstar Games is set to redefine the gaming industry with the much-anticipated release of Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6). Even before its official launch, the game is being hailed as one of the most iconic titles of the decade, thanks to its ultra-realistic graphics and a groundbreaking storyline featuring the franchise's first-ever female lead.
When Can We Expect GTA 6 PC to Be Released?
The release date of GTA 6's PC version has not yet been announced by Rockstar. It is anticipated that the console versions will be released in 2026, while PC players may have to wait longer.
GTA V was released on consoles in September 2013 and on the PC in April 2015, a nearly 18-month gap, if history is to be believed. Therefore, unless Rockstar modifies its timeline, GTA 6 PC might probably make its debut in late 2027 or early 2028.
Why Does GTA 6 Have a Late PC Launch?
Concerns about piracy are the primary cause of the postponed PC release. Within days after release, PC versions are susceptible to piracy, which can have a major effect on sales.
Major studios like Rockstar respond to this by first releasing their blockbuster games on consoles, where piracy is far less prevalent. Given that GTA 6 is expected to bring in about $7.6 billion in its first two months of sales, Rockstar will probably put console sales first.
Expected System Requirements for GTA 6
The system requirements have not been formally disclosed by Rockstar, but preliminary leaks and industry conjecture point to the following:
- Platform: Windows 10 or Windows 11
- AMD Ryzen 5 3600 or Intel Core i7-8700K as the processor
- AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT or NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti graphics card
- Storage Space: 150 GB or more of free space
- RAM: 8 GB (16 GB is advised)
How Can We Anticipate GTA 6?
Expected features in GTA 6 include:
- For the first time in series history, a female lead.
- Advanced visuals with incredibly lifelike settings.
- an enormous open-world area that is said to contain several cities.
- improved AI and improved gameplay mechanics.
