Speculation Mounts: Will GTA 6 Arrive on PC?
Take-Two Interactive's CEO, Strauss Zelnick, recently hinted at a potential future PC release for Grand Theft Auto 6 (GTA 6), fueling anticipation among fans. While an official PC launch hasn't been confirmed, Zelnick's comments to IGN on February 10, 2025, suggest a staggered release strategy mirroring previous Rockstar titles.
Zelnick highlighted Rockstar's historical pattern of initially releasing major titles on consoles before expanding to PC. GTA 5, for example, launched on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in 2013, followed by PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in 2014, and finally PC in 2015. Red Dead Redemption 2 followed a similar trajectory. While a simultaneous launch on all platforms wasn't confirmed for GTA 6, the implication is clear: PC gamers may eventually get their hands on the game.
Strong PC Sales Projections for GTA 6
Zelnick emphasized the growing importance 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 success across all platforms, even amid reports of declining PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S sales. He believes the game's popularity will boost console sales, echoing past trends.
GTA 6 is slated for a Fall 2025 release, but a precise date remains unannounced. For the latest updates, visit our Grand Theft Auto 6 page.
Take-Two and Rockstar Eyeing Nintendo Switch 2
During Take-Two Interactive's Q3 Fiscal Conference Call on February 6, 2025, Zelnick expressed interest in bringing their games to the Nintendo Switch 2. This shift in strategy reflects Nintendo's expanding audience appeal. With Civilization 7 already confirmed for Switch 2, the possibility of future Rockstar titles on the platform appears increasingly likely.
