GamesBeat says Rockstar may now be aiming Grand Theft Auto 6 at a PC release in Q1 2027. The outlet says that timeline comes from four people familiar with Rockstar’s plans. If they’re right, PC players would be waiting only about two to four months after the already confirmed PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S launch on November 19, 2026.
That’d be a real change for Rockstar. Grand Theft Auto V didn’t make it to PC until 19 months after its September 2013 console debut, and Red Dead Redemption 2 took a little over a year. GamesBeat says some of the speculation traces back to Take-Two Interactive’s earlier “platform extension” comment, plus a separate 2027 Grand Theft Auto 6 Online rumor tied to Twitch CEO Dan Clancy. Put together, that timing would make strategic sense, with a larger PC market and a faster way to keep launch momentum going.
Still, none of this is official. Rockstar Games and Take-Two Interactive haven’t confirmed a PC date, so for now, it’s a rumor. The next likely place to get any clarification is Take-Two Interactive’s November 9, 2026 earnings call.
If you’re waiting on the PC version, this is one to watch, especially after GamesBeat reported that the related coverage landed alongside a Take-Two Interactive stock drop of more than 5%, despite record fiscal 2026 and 2027 forecasts driven by Grand Theft Auto 6. Right now, Grand Theft Auto 6 is officially set for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S first, and there’s still no PC release announced.
