Will GTA 6 Launch on PC? Here's What We Know — And Which CPU Will Run It Better

Rockstar Games finally dropped the official trailer for GTA 6, and while the hype is sky-high, there's one big question still heating up forums and social media: Will it release on PC — and if it does, what’s the best setup to run it?

No PC Confirmed... Yet

Right now, GTA 6 is only officially confirmed for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, with a 2025 release window. No mention of a PC version — and if Rockstar sticks to their past patterns (remember GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2?), PC players might be in for a long wait.

But let’s be real — Rockstar isn’t skipping PC. It’s too big of a market. They’re likely just holding back to maximize console sales first. PC gamers should expect a release, just not at launch.

If It Skips PC Entirely?

That would be a massive backlash waiting to happen. The PC modding community kept GTA V alive for nearly a decade. Rockstar knows this. Denying PC players a version would be cutting off a loyal, creative fanbase. Expect major outrage, petitions, YouTubers going off — the works.

Ryzen vs. Intel — Which Will Run GTA 6 Better?

Assuming GTA 6 comes to PC (which it will — eventually), the next debate is: Ryzen or Intel?

Ryzen (AMD): Known for multitasking and solid price-to-performance. If GTA 6 is optimized for multi-core use (like recent Rockstar games), Ryzen 7 or 9 CPUs will crush it.

Intel: Stronger single-core performance and slightly better optimization for some games. If GTA 6 is more CPU-bound, high-end Intel Core i7/i9 (13th or 14th gen) will shine.

Bottom line? Both platforms will run it great, as long as you’ve got the GPU muscle and at least 16GB RAM to back it up. It’ll come down to your budget and whether you lean more toward multitasking (Ryzen) or raw per-core speed (Intel).
