Optimize Your Display

For the best visuals: 4K HDR TV with 120Hz for console, or a LG C4 OLED for OLED-quality gaming.

Audio: SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7 headset for directional awareness, or a soundbar with subwoofer for room immersion.


PC Version: What to Expect

Rockstar has not announced a PC version, but based on historical patterns (GTA 5 came to PC 18 months after console launch), expect a PC release in late 2027 or 2028.

Predicted PC Requirements (Speculation)

CPU: Intel i7-13700K or Ryzen 7 7800X3D
GPU: RTX 4070 or RX 7800 XT
RAM: 32GB DDR5
Storage: 150GB NVMe SSD (Samsung 980 Pro)

Will GTA 6 Run on PS4/Xbox One?

No. GTA 6 is built exclusively for current-generation hardware. PS4 and Xbox One cannot run the game. If you’re still on last-gen, it’s time to upgrade — PS5 or Xbox Series X.
