Unknown · the PC question
Not announced. Not ruled out.
PS5 · Xbox Series X|S · no PC version announced Take-Two Interactive · 24 Jun 2026
Rockstar has not announced a PC version of Grand Theft Auto VI, and no PC release date exists. The 19 November 2026 launch covers PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S only; every PC date in circulation is an estimate or an invention.
Last checked
Two standing questions.
The largest type on this page, deliberately.
Rockstar has never named a PC date, never named a storefront, and never published a system requirement. Every figure you have read about graphics cards was assembled by someone reasoning backwards from a PlayStation 5.
The pattern is real and it is not a promise. Anyone quoting a PC date is quoting a guess — including the sensible-sounding ones, and including the arithmetic further down this page, which is set out precisely so it can be recognised as arithmetic.
A system requirement is a statement a publisher makes about a product it is selling. There is no PC product for such a statement to be about, so the statement does not exist, and every spec table in circulation was written by working backwards from other games.
The specs question has its own page, for the same reason — there are no published GTA 6 PC system requirements, and the lists you can find are invented.
Confirmed · one entry · and it is an absence
Has a PC version been announced?
No. Not once, anywhere.
Nothing. That is not a summary — it is the complete record. Rockstar has never named a PC version, a PC date, a PC storefront or a PC specification in any first-party material: not in a trailer, not on the Newswire, not on a store listing.
It does not mean a PC version has been ruled out. Nobody at Rockstar or Take-Two has said there will not be one, and the studio's own history points the other way. Likely is not announced, and this page will not convert one into the other.

Stated in first-party material, or shown in official footage. Two attributable sources where possible. Nothing reliable exists. Stated plainly rather than filled with speculation.
Confirmed · and it is a refusal to commit
What the absence does mean is narrower and more useful than "it is not coming": there is no schedule to be told about. The nearest thing to a statement of policy is a deliberate non-commitment, made about a different platform, in a way that applies to all of them.
Read plainly, that is a company saying it decides platforms title by title and will not be pinned down in advance. It is the opposite of a roadmap, and it is the reason this reference treats every PC prediction as somebody's inference rather than as news.
Is there a rule for which platforms get which game?
Case by case. No title is promised to any machine.
Frequently misreported as a Switch 2 confirmation for GTA VI. It is the opposite: a deliberate non-commitment.

Nineteen months. Once. To another game.
Grand Theft Auto V · September 2013 to April 2015
One dated precedent · one game · a different decade
How long did the last one take?
Consoles September 2013. PC April 2015. About 19 months.
Historical precedent only. It says nothing about GTA VI's schedule.
Confirmed PCGamesN /
That is the whole of the precedent this reference holds, and it is worth exactly what a precedent is worth: it tells you what happened once, to a different game, in a different decade. Red Dead Redemption 2 is named in the record above as a comparable case; no dates are printed for it here, because there is no citation to hang them on.
Adding that gap to the console date is arithmetic, not evidence, and this page deliberately does not do it. Doing so would assume the same studio, the same publishing arrangement and the same reasons as a game from the previous decade — none of which anyone outside Rockstar can check. Half the PC dates in circulation are that sum with a confident sentence wrapped around it.
Rumoured · recorded, not believed
Is February 2027 a real date?
It is one outlet, quoting people who no longer work there.
Unverifiable, and ex-employees would not have current schedule visibility. Recorded only because it is widely repeated.
Rumoured Insider Gaming /
Two problems with it, neither of them about trusting the outlet. The first is structural: former employees do not have visibility of a schedule they are no longer on, so even a sincere account is describing something they last saw before they left.
The second is that no first-party material points that way at all. The claim would put a PC release roughly three months after the console launch, which is far quicker than the only console-to-PC gap anyone can actually date. That does not make it false. It makes it unverifiable, which is a different thing and the reason it is graded the way it is.
It is recorded as rumoured rather than deleted, because it is repeated widely enough that a reader who has seen it deserves to find out where it came from.
Three named stores · all console or first-party
Every so often a screenshot of a Steam or Epic page circulates. What matters is not the screenshot but which of these four things it is.
Where is the game actually sold?
PlayStation Store, Microsoft Store, Rockstar Games Store, retail.
Confirmed Take-Two Interactive press release /
Rockstar or Take-Two, directly · nothing else
Every platform statement this game has ever had came from Rockstar or Take-Two directly: Rockstar's own Newswire, a Take-Two press release or filing, or a post Rockstar wrote for a platform holder's own blog. The console date, the pre-order details, the platform list and both delays all arrived that way. A PC announcement that matters will arrive that way too.
Which gives a short and honest test. If a PC claim does not trace to Rockstar or Take-Two directly, it is not confirmation, however many outlets repeat it — and outlets repeating each other is the mechanism by which the February 2027 figure became something people believe they read somewhere official.
Until then the entries here stay as they are: PC version not announced, PC date unknown, PC requirements unknown. The machines that do have a date are on the platforms page, and the date itself is on the release date page
