Confirmed
Console-only launch
PS5 & Xbox Series X|S on November 19, 2026. Digital preload from November 12, 2026 for preorders. No PC SKU, no Steam page, no Rockstar Launcher listing for a Windows build.
Not confirmed. Grand Theft Auto VI releases on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S only on Thursday, November 19, 2026. Rockstar has historically brought GTA to PC one to two years after console — GTA 5 went 2013 to 2015, Red Dead Redemption 2 went 2018 to 2019 — so a later PC port is widely expected, but nothing is announced.
Rockstar’s platform list for GTA 6 is short on purpose: PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. That is the full confirmed set for November 19, 2026. No PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, or Windows PC version has been named in any Rockstar Newswire, earnings call, or store listing tied to the November 19 launch.
Treat any specific “GTA 6 PC release date” as speculation until Rockstar says otherwise. The console release date and preload are locked; the full yes/no board for every machine is the platforms guide. The PC story is a separate, still-open question.
GTA 5 → PC
Console launch September 17, 2013; Windows PC on April 14, 2015 — 19 months after the original release, following two delays from initial 2014 targets.
Red Dead Redemption 2 → PC
Console launch October 26, 2018; Windows PC on November 5, 2019 — roughly one year later. Same “consoles first, PC later” pattern as GTA 5.
What that means for GTA 6
GTA 6 launches on PS5 & Xbox Series X|S on November 19, 2026. A later PC port is widely expected from Rockstar’s track record, but nothing is announced — so no date exists to track.
If GTA 6 mirrored GTA 5’s exact 19-month gap to PC, that points to a window around mid-to-late 2028 — but that is pattern-matching against one previous game, not a Rockstar roadmap. See the full GTA 6 vs GTA 5 platforms comparison for the nine-year GTA 5 rollout table.

Widely expected
Rockstar’s modern open-world pattern strongly suggests PC eventually follows. Expectation is not confirmation — and inventing a month or a storefront listing does not make it one.
No PC version has been announced. Rockstar has historically brought GTA to PC one to two years after console (GTA 5: 2013 to 2015; RDR2: 2018 to 2019), so a later PC release is expected — but it remains unconfirmed.
GTA 6 launches Thursday, November 19, 2026 on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Rockstar locked the date in via its Newswire in November 2025, after two earlier delays.
No. Rockstar has only confirmed PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S for November 19, 2026. Any specific PC date circulating online is speculation until Rockstar announces one.
GTA 5 arrived on Windows PC on April 14, 2015 — 19 months after its September 2013 console launch. If GTA 6 mirrored that exact gap from November 19, 2026, the pattern would point to mid-to-late 2028. That is pattern-matching against one previous game, not a Rockstar roadmap.
Nothing has been announced. GTA 6 is current-gen only at launch (PS5 and Xbox Series X|S). Unlike GTA 5’s later multi-generation rollout, Rockstar has given no indication of a PS4, Xbox One, or Switch version.
