Speculation Mounts: Will GTA 6 Arrive on PC?
Take-Two Interactive's CEO hints at a potential future PC release for Grand Theft Auto 6 (GTA 6), fueling anticipation among fans. While an official PC announcement remains absent, the company's history and recent statements suggest a strong possibility.
GTA 6's PC Prospects: A Look at Take-Two's Strategy
During a February 10, 2025 interview with IGN, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick revealed that while Civilization 7 will launch simultaneously on consoles and PC, their other titles often follow a staggered release strategy. He highlighted Rockstar Games' past practice of initially releasing major titles on select platforms before expanding to others. This precedent, established with GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2, suggests GTA 6 might follow suit.
Although not explicitly confirmed, Zelnick's comments strongly indicate a future PC release is under consideration. The history of major Rockstar titles reaching PC eventually bolsters this expectation, despite initial disappointment among fans hoping for simultaneous PC and console launches.
Take-Two's Confidence in GTA 6's Success Across Platforms
Zelnick emphasized the growing significance of the PC market, noting that PC versions of multiplatform games can contribute up to 40% of total sales. He expressed confidence in GTA 6's strong performance across all platforms, including consoles, even amidst reports of declining PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S sales. He believes GTA 6's release will boost console sales, mirroring past trends. His focus on the increasing PC market share further reinforces the likelihood of a future PC release.
