GTA 6 on PC: Not Announced

The single most-asked question in PC gaming right now has a short, honest answer: Rockstar has not announced a PC version of GTA 6. No release date, no system requirements, no price, no Steam page. This tracker keeps what is confirmed strictly separate from what is rumoured — and updates the moment that changes.

Announced — as of the last check

GTA 6 launches Thursday 19 November 2026 on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S only. Every "GTA 6 PC release date" you see anywhere else is speculation unless Rockstar says otherwise — here is exactly what is and is not on the record.

01 — Confirmed vs rumour

The record

PC release date
Not announced
Rockstar has given no PC date — not a window, not a year. Console launch is 19 Nov 2026 on PS5 + Xbox Series X|S.
System requirements
Not announced
No minimum or recommended specs exist. Any "GTA 6 PC requirements" list online is guesswork built on other games.
Steam / store pages
None exist
There is no Steam page, no Epic listing and no Rockstar Launcher pre-order for a PC edition. Pages claiming otherwise are fakes — do not pay for "PC keys".
PC price
Not announced
Console US prices are Standard $79.99 / Ultimate $99.99. No PC pricing has been stated by anyone official.
"Q1 2027" PC window
Rumour — unconfirmed
A GamesBeat report (13 Oct 2026) citing four anonymous sources suggested a possible early-2027 PC window. It is a single unattributed report, not a Rockstar statement, and Rockstar has not commented. Treat it as something to watch, not something to plan around.
02 — History, labelled as history

What Rockstar did last time

The strongest clue about a GTA 6 PC version is Rockstar's own track record — but be clear about what it is: history, not news. It tells you a PC version is likely eventually; it says nothing official about when.

GTA V
History
Console launch September 2013 (PS3/Xbox 360); PC version followed in April 2015 — roughly a year and a half later, after the PS4/Xbox One versions. The PC edition became one of the best-selling PC games ever.
Red Dead Redemption 2
History
Console launch October 2018 (PS4/Xbox One); PC version followed in November 2019 — about 13 months later, launching first on Rockstar's own launcher and Epic, with Steam a month after.
The pattern
History
Both times: consoles first, PC later, and the PC edition arrived as a polished, enhanced release rather than a day-one port. If GTA 6 follows the same playbook, a PC version would land well after the console launch — but "if" is doing real work in that sentence.
03 — For PC players

What to do meanwhile

Don't buy anything yet. There are no legitimate GTA 6 PC keys, pre-orders or "beta invites" — every offer you see is a scam, full stop. Don't build a PC to a rumoured spec sheet. Requirements guessed today could be wrong in both directions; the time to plan a build is when Rockstar publishes real specs. Do watch the primary sources: Rockstar's Newswire and Take-Two's investor calls are where a PC announcement would land first, and this page will be updated the day one appears. If you want to play on 19 November, the only confirmed route is a PS5 or Xbox Series X|S — see the editions guide and release date countdown.

Has Rockstar said anything at all about PC?

Rockstar's announcements to date cover the console versions only — PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, launching 19 Nov 2026. There has been no Rockstar statement confirming or dating a PC edition. Silence is not a "no" forever; it is simply not a date, and we report it as exactly that.

Where did the "Q1 2027" claim come from?

A GamesBeat report published 13 October 2026, based on four anonymous sources. Anonymous-source reporting can turn out right, but it is one report, unattributed and unconfirmed by Rockstar or Take-Two. On this site it stays labelled rumour until an official source confirms it.

Will my current PC run it when it does come?

Nobody can know until official requirements exist. The honest preparation is general: a modern GPU, a fast NVMe SSD and 16 GB+ of RAM describe most current high-end releases — but treat that as general PC-readiness context, not GTA 6 information.
