GTA VI platforms and PC requirements
Wondering if your machine can run GTA VI? Here's what's actually confirmed today: the launch platforms, where a PC version stands, and why there are still no official system requirements to compare against.
Key checks
- Confirmed: PS5 and Xbox Series X|S
- PC version: not confirmed
- Official PC requirements: not published
- Ignore leaked specs until Rockstar confirms
Quick answer
Can your PC run GTA VI?
You can't answer that accurately yet, because Rockstar hasn't confirmed a PC version of GTA VI or published any PC system requirements. The confirmed launch platforms are PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
Rockstar has historically brought Grand Theft Auto games to PC after the console launch. If that happens again, you'll find the official minimum and recommended specs here as soon as they're announced — and not a moment before.
Short version: if you want to play at launch, plan around PS5 or Xbox Series X|S. Treat any 'GTA VI PC requirements' list you see right now as unconfirmed.

What to expect
When official specs land
Minimum vs. recommended
Once Rockstar publishes a PC spec sheet, we'll break down the minimum floor versus the recommended tier so you know what to actually aim for before buying anything.
Resolution and framerate
We'll translate the official numbers into realistic 1080p, 1440p, and 4K expectations instead of repeating a raw table.
Storage and setup
Once the install size is confirmed, we'll cover SSD headroom and the setup steps that reduce launch-day friction.
Install prep
What you can do now
You can't plan exact hardware yet, but you can save yourself hassle later. Decide which confirmed platform you'll play on — PS5 or Xbox Series X|S — and keep storage space free, since a game this size will need a large install on any platform.
Be skeptical of 'leaked requirements'. Until Rockstar publishes an official PC spec sheet, any GPU, CPU, RAM, or SSD figure is unconfirmed and may be wrong.
- Decide on a confirmed platform (PS5 or Xbox Series X|S) for launch.
- Keep plenty of storage free; a game this size will be a large install.
- Treat any 'GTA VI PC requirements' you see today as unconfirmed.
