Rockstar Games confirmed Grand Theft Auto 6 is scheduled for November 19, 2026, for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. No official PC release date has been announced.

Why is Rockstar not prioritising the PC version?

GTA V took approximately 7 months (September 2013 console, April 2015 PC). Red Dead Redemption 2 took about 13 months (October 2018 console, November 2019 PC). PC releases have consistently followed console launches by several months.
