Captain LagbeardThe gaming world is abuzz with speculation about the release of Grand Theft Auto 6 (GTA 6), especially concerning its availability on PC. While Rockstar Games has yet to confirm a PC version, Corsair, a leading PC gaming company, has offered its own timeline.
Corsair’s Forecast
During a recent financial call, Corsair‘s Vice President, Ronald van Veen, shared his insights:
“GTA 6 is probably the one everyone is talking about. And we’ll get a glimpse of that, I think, later on in the year for console. My understanding now it’s going to come out in the fall for console, and then early 2026 for PC.”
This statement suggests that while console gamers might get their hands on GTA 6 in the fall of 2025, PC enthusiasts may have to wait until early 2026.
Historical Context
Historically, Rockstar Games has staggered releases across platforms. For instance, Grand Theft Auto V launched on consoles in 2013 and made its way to PC in 2015. This pattern has led many to anticipate a similar approach for GTA 6.
Take-Two’s Perspective
Strauss Zelnick, CEO of Take-Two Interactive (Rockstar’s parent company), has previously mentioned:
“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.”
This indicates that while a PC version is likely, it may not be available at launch.
Community Reactions
The gaming community has mixed feelings about this potential timeline. Some are disappointed by the wait, while others appreciate the transparency. A Reddit user commented:
“Not sure how true it is, but according to Corsair’s VP of Finance and other sources, GTA6 is expected to launch on PC in early 2026.”
Conclusion
While Corsair’s prediction isn’t official, it provides a plausible timeline for GTA 6’s PC release. Gamers are advised to stay tuned for official announcements from Rockstar Games for the most accurate information.
