Rockstar Games’ parent company, Take-Two Interactive, has now confirmed thatGrand Theft Auto 6is going to be released at some point in 2025 forPlayStation 5andXbox Series X|S, but made no mention of a PC release.
What an evening, huh? For anyone out of the loop, thefirst trailer forGTA 6dropped unexpectedly last night (December 4), after it was supposed to be released today (December 5) at 9am ET / 6am PT / 2pm GMT (which is December 6 at 1am AEDT). However, a leak of the trailer surfaced on social media early, prompting developer Rockstar Games torespond: “Our trailer has leaked so please watch the real thing onYouTube.”
While it wasn’t unveiled under the circumstances that anyone was hoping for, the trailer is an exciting watch and gives us our first look at protagonist Lucia as well as the game’s setting, Leonida State, which is home to fan-favorite location Vice City. The trailer itself didn’t confirm what platforms the game will be releasing on, however - this was only noted in apress releaseafter it was unveiled.
“Rockstar Games […] is proud to announce thatGrand Theft Auto6is coming to PlayStation 5 computer entertainment systems and Xbox Series X|S games and entertainment systems in 2025,” the press release reads.
While this may because for concern to PC gamers, it’s worth noting that except forGTA 1and2, all of the previous main seriesGTAgames have been released on PC a while after their console releases. For example,GTA 5arrived on PC in April 2015, despite releasing onPS3andXbox 360in September 2013. Therefore, it may be that, like in the series’ past,GTA 6will arrive on PC at a later date. However, with no confirmation of that at the time of writing, PC users are in the dark, at least for now.
