GTA 6 PC Release Expected in 2026, Console Sales to Rise
The release of GTA 6 is highly anticipated, with its massive map, new features, and improved gameplay, and is expected to boost console sales in 2025, despite the growing importance of the PC gaming market, with the PC version expected to follow in 2026.
Corsair CEO Andy Paul has revealed that Grand Theft Auto 6 may arrive on PC in early 2026, a year after its console release in fall 2025, which could potentially shorten the gap between console and PC releases compared to GTA 5.
Take-Two Interactive, the parent company of Rockstar Games, has not made an official statement on the PC launch, but CEO Strauss Zelnick has emphasized the growing importance of the PC gaming market. Despite this, Zelnick is confident that the release of GTA 6 will lead to a significant increase in console sales in 2025, even with the game's initial exclusion from the PC platform.
GTA 6 is set to launch in fall 2025 on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, with a massive Vice City map and a female protagonist, Lucia. The game's system requirements will include a powerful processor, graphics card, and RAM, and will feature more realistic AI, enhanced physics and graphics, and a tougher wanted system. The game's map will be massive, featuring a world inspired by Florida with swamps, beaches, and urban areas.
The expected price of GTA 6 will be around Rs 5,999 in India, $70-$100 in the US, and AED 259-AED 369 in Dubai. With its initial release on consoles, gamers will have to wait until at least 2026 for the PC version, which is expected to be a major release in the gaming world.
