GTA 6 fans are expecting big things when Rockstar's title launches later in 2025, but according to one source the PC version might not be too far at all a rarity for the studioTech10:22, 24 Feb 2025Could GTA 6 come to PC sooner than we thought?(Image: Still)A few weeks after Take-Two Interactive confirmed in its earnings call that GTA 6 is still slated for this year, and that Borderlands 4 has a release date, fans have been waiting for more news on Grand Theft Auto 6 and maybe even a trailer.Since then, one CEO suggested that the game would come to PC much sooner than we'd perhaps anticipated. Corsair's CEO Andrew Paul suggested that the game could come to Windows as early as the start of 2026, but it now appears that might not be the case after all.Corsair has since clarified those comments, and it appears the company didn't have any insider information at all.Imagine this on a high-end PC(Image: Rockstar)In an earnings call for Corsair (a PC parts and peripherals manufacturer), Paul previously discussed the possibility of GTA 6 launching in early 2026 on PC.Since then, Corsair has reached out to IGN to clarify Paul's statement, confirming that the information was speculative and that the company doesn't have any prior knowledge of Rockstar's plans for PC.Not great news, then, but at least GTA 5 on PC is getting a big update in a couple of weeks after Rockstar announced a free patch to bring it in line with the PS5 and Xbox Series X versions.Recent industry surveys have confirmed that PC gaming is on the rise, and Take-Two's CEO Strauss Zelnick recently discussed the potential for a PC port of what is expected to be the biggest game of all time.So with Civ 7 it's available on console and PC and Switch right away, Zelnick told IGN earlier in February, referring to this month's Civilization 7 launch.With regard to others in our lineup, we don't always go across all platforms simultaneously. Historically, Rockstar has started with some platforms and then historically moved to other platforms.It caught some by surprise when PS5 and Xbox were the only platforms listed for GTA 6 when it was revealed in December 2023, but for anyone following Rockstar's spotty history with PC ports, it wasn't too surprising at all.While GTA 4, GTA 5, and both Red Dead Redemption titles did get PC ports, there was a sizeable gap between them and the console launches.Last month, a former Rockstar developer said "They're [Rockstar] gonna try to optimize as much as they can to where it never goes below 30 [frames per second]."Article continues below"But it can be bumped up to 40, 41, 52, whatever, and I bet you, like, later, once it's on PC, it'll probably get super optimized and changed and new graphics cards that come out and you'll be able to run it at 60fps probably at that time."For more on GTA 6, check out this title from the lead developer on prior GTA titles to help you pass the time while you wait, as well as rumours of a celebrity appearance.For the latest breaking news and stories from across the globe from the Daily Star, sign up for our newsletters.
