GTA 6 on PC: release date and what we actually know
Updated
Short answer
No, GTA 6 isn’t coming to PC on November 19, 2026: Rockstar hasn’t announced a PC version. A GamesBeat report (October 13, 2026, four anonymous sources) points to the first quarter of 2027. No system requirements have been published. Historically, Rockstar releases on PC 7 to 19 months after consoles.

GTA 6 on PC: nothing announced, a report for 2027
Rockstar hasn’t announced a PC version of GTA 6. The game launches on November 19, 2026 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S only. On October 13, 2026, GamesBeat reported, citing four anonymous industry sources, that Rockstar is aiming for the first quarter of 2027 on PC. Rockstar hasn’t commented: it’s a credible report, not a date.
No minimum or recommended specs have been published. Be wary of "system requirements" going around: they are made up or extrapolated.
What Rockstar’s track record says
Rockstar ships its big games on console first, then on PC a few months to more than a year later:
| Game | Console release | PC release | Gap |
|---|---|---|---|
| GTA IV | April 29, 2008 | December 2, 2008 | ≈ 7 months |
| GTA V | September 17, 2013 | April 14, 2015 | ≈ 19 months |
| Red Dead Redemption 2 | October 26, 2018 | November 5, 2019 | ≈ 12 months |
A PC release in Q1 2027 would make GTA 6 the fastest port on this list — consistent with a studio that now controls the PC modding ecosystem.
Modding: FiveM leads the way
Rockstar has owned FiveM since 2023, and in 2026 Take-Two had rival multiplayer platforms (alt:V, RAGE:MP) shut down. Nothing is official for GTA 6, but everything points to FiveM and its Cfx Marketplace as the modding channel on PC.
Wait for PC or play on console?
If you already own a PS5 or an Xbox Series, there’s no reason to wait: PC will come months later at best, with no date or specs yet. If you only play on PC, expect to wait until 2027 — with an upside: mods and a higher frame rate than the 30fps reported for console builds in development.
