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 announcement is absent, Zelnick's comments to IGN on February 10, 2025, suggest a staggered platform release strategy, aligning with Rockstar Games' past practices.
Zelnick highlighted that Rockstar often prioritizes certain platforms initially, subsequently expanding to others. The release history of GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2 supports this claim, with both titles launching on consoles before eventually arriving on PC. Although not explicitly confirmed, Zelnick's remarks indicate a strong possibility of a future PC release for GTA 6.
Strong PC Sales Projections for GTA 6
Zelnick emphasized the growing significance of the PC market, noting that PC versions of multiplatform games can contribute up to 40% of total sales. Despite declining console sales of the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, he expressed confidence in GTA 6's strong performance across all platforms, believing its release will boost console sales. He anticipates a rise in console sales in 2025 due to several major game releases.
GTA 6's autumn 2025 release date is confirmed, but a specific PC launch date remains unannounced. For the latest updates, visit our Grand Theft Auto 6 page.
Expansion to Nintendo Switch 2?
Take-Two's interest in bringing its titles to the Nintendo Switch 2 was also highlighted in their Q3 Fiscal Conference Call on February 6, 2025. Zelnick noted a shift in Nintendo's target audience, making the Switch platform more appealing for a wider range of games. The inclusion of Civilization 7 on the Switch further underscores this evolving strategy. While no concrete plans were revealed, the possibility of future Take-Two and Rockstar Games titles on the Switch 2 seems increasingly likely.
