Along with the release date, fans got another solid update a few days after in the form of the highly anticipated Trailer 2. Just like Trailer 1 and the release date launch, Trailer 2 also mentioned the launch of GTA 6 on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5 Pro and Xbox Series X/S. However, what about the PC fans then?

When the Trailer 1 released in December 2023, it left a lot of loose ends. However, a lot of them were sorted out when the Trailer 2 dropped.
But it didn't answer the long-awaited question, "when will GTA be released on PC?'
As per the initial release window, everyone thought GTA 6 will be available on PC after one year of its console release, that is in 2026. However, the console launch is now shifted in 2026 itself, consequently pushing the PC release as well.
Now if we follow the past trends of Rockstar Games in terms of releasing GTA installments on PC, then we might get a speculative release date.
GTA 4 first launched on PS3 and Xbox 360 in April 2008, and in just eight months, launched on PC.

Although, it's worthy successor, GTA 5, took almost two years to release on PC after being launched on consoles in 2013. So, it means Rockstar poses a clear habit of releasing PC ports a bit later than the console launch.
Obviously it has its own reason as well and that is proper optimization. Besides being one of the best games ever, GTA 5 is also one of the most graphically well optimized titles as well.

And the credit goes to the two years gap between the console and PC launch.
Actually, developing a game for console is a bit easier as compared to PC ports because in consoles, developers get a standard hardware combination for systems to try on. However, in the case of PCs, there are innumerable hardware configurations.
So, to make it optimized for all kinds of PC specs, developers will surely need some time. And keeping in mind
, this game might take the longest time to surface on PCs.
Rockstar is also not going to make the blunder with GTA 6, what it did with GTA 4. GTA 4 was an absolute mess on PCs, having poor optimization. Many things the short span of eight months wasn't enough to shift from consoles to PCs, but Rockstar hasn't yet fixed it even today, whereas the modders did.
Now it's time for the verdict. When will GTA 6 be available on PC? Actually it doesn't have a proper answer, but players shouldn't expect the game at least until 2027.
They might have to wait longer, and only Rockstar has the definite answer.
