Speculation Mounts: Will GTA 6 Arrive on PC?
Take-Two Interactive's recent statements and Rockstar's release history suggest a potential future PC release for Grand Theft Auto 6 (GTA 6), despite the lack of official confirmation. This article explores the clues and what they might mean for PC gamers.
GTA 6's PC Release: Unconfirmed, Yet Possible
While a PC launch for GTA 6 hasn't been announced, hints point towards its eventual arrival. Take-Two Interactive CEO, Strauss Zelnick, in a February 10, 2025 interview with IGN, highlighted Rockstar's pattern of staggered platform releases. He noted that Rockstar often prioritizes certain platforms initially, later expanding to others. This aligns with the release history of GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2, both initially released on consoles before making their way to PC.
Take-Two's Confidence in GTA 6 Sales Across Platforms
Zelnick emphasized the growing significance of the PC market, stating that PC versions can contribute up to 40% of a multi-platform game's total sales. He expressed confidence in GTA 6's success across all platforms, including consoles, even amidst reports of declining console sales. He believes the game's popularity will boost console sales, mirroring past trends.
A Potential Switch 2 Release?
During Take-Two's Q3 Fiscal Conference Call on February 6, 2025, Zelnick also expressed interest in bringing their titles to the Nintendo Switch 2, citing Nintendo's broadened audience appeal and the successful Switch release of Civilization 7.
Conclusion: Awaiting Official Confirmation
GTA 6's Fall 2025 release is confirmed, but its PC debut remains unannounced. While Take-Two's statements offer strong hints, only an official announcement will definitively confirm a PC release. Keep an eye on our Grand Theft Auto 6 page for the latest updates.
