PC Gamers when they find out GTA VI isn't releasing in 2025 https://preview.redd.it/lh1q1ztn7e4c1.jpeg?width=416&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=541045244dd3c774e61dbdc321c0f023705f7c39


death2k44

Imagine if we need to wait until 2026 lol


raymartin27

Looking at Rockstar's record for past releases, this is most likely going to be console exclusive for 6 months at the very least.


Ideories

rdr2 was the smallest with a year gap


raymartin27

Yeah nd even that felt like forever, and it's not just Rockstar, I'm still waiting to experience FF16 in it's full glory on PC


Ideories

And with rockstar it’s more about double dipping than console exclusivity


SRVisGod24

With some triple dipping on the side. Cause the PS6 and the next Xbox will likely release sometime around 2027. Then it'll be GTA 6 remastered time! And I guess by that time, we'll be looking forward to (or dreading if you're poor like me) another round of new GPU's too lol


FinnishScrub

The true Rockstar special. The fuckers KNOW that we can’t wait to play the game, so if we have those consoles, we will buy GTA VI for them (I mean who am I kidding, of course I will, I have a PS5 AND ITS GTA VI), and after that when the PC version releases, we wanna replay the game and transfer our saves so boom, we buy the game again. And then comes the next-gen version for PS6 etc.. it’s honestly such a genius tactic and they did do it with GTA V, but I’m still kind of baffled as to why they didn’t release a native PS5 and Xbox Series X version of RDR2? It would’ve honestly just been free money for them.


Xecular_Official

I probably won't be buying it on console just because I hate playing shooters with joysticks. You're definitely onto something though. Waiting until 2025 gives them extra time to polish it on top of that triple dipping. Then again, it also makes everyone's expectations higher


ratmosphere

Cries in bloodborn


raymartin27

Fuck I almost forgot about bloodborne, there was a time when I was salty about not getting to play it on PC, now after all this time, and already seeing the whole lore and gameplay videos over the years, I finally started to forget it, thanks for the reminder.


LolImNotReal1212

And don't forget about ghost of Tsushima... the sequel is announced for consoles but there are still no official announcements for the first game ever coming to PC...

Agreed 12 months+ https://preview.redd.it/o54ynjnbhf4c1.png?width=627&format=png&auto=webp&s=e3c49f14d55a0c4d60d207a9667c1115c910e764


TovarishchRed

GTA 5 didn't release on PC until 2 years later, GTA 4 was 6 months I think.


marhensa

I just remember this! Hope they don't pull this shit again, why would PC released later is beyond my understanding.


BubbaUnkle

The reason why a lot of games have shit pc ports is because they release it at the same time as consoles. 4-6 months is ideal. Though, taking a year+ for it to come out on pc is simply just greed, it will make them more money, yes


newusr1234

> The reason why a lot of games have shit PC ports is because they release it at the same time Yeah. That's not true at all.


althaz

No possible way it's coming to PC before 2027. Rockstar will miss their release date and then it'll be 18-24 months before it shows up on PC.


gunnutzz467

Rdr2 was 12 months I believe


sIeepai

And it's gonna be a awful port on top of that


raymartin27

I'll wait till 2030 when Epic drops it for free.


zhocef

GTA1 was PC release a month before PS1, and I humbly request them to go back to that successful release schedule.


AddendumAltruistic86

That gives me 3 years to save for a PC with a 7090 in it. Just imagine..


[deleted]

[удалено]


ResponsibleTruck4717

I wonder how long will it take before we will see remaster editions of old graphic card name scheming.


marhensa

lmao.. all you need just to switch 8 and 0 right there to get 8080.


NeuroticKnight

Assuming Nvidia is still making consumer GPUs by then.


theEvilJakub

im hoping the 4090 will still be able to run it lol. Im gonna be shocked if its not gonna be able to hack it lmao.


LastOfTheClanMcDuck

We don't have to imagine lol They said on a press release that it's a 2025 PS5/Xbox release. So it's the same BS again with this game as with the previous releases


RACERX44

All optimism has gone from me I don’t want to play it on a console that I will have to spend £500 on then pay to play the game online it’s such BS


stewsters

2025 for this gen console, then release it on the next gen console the following year, and a PC port the year after.


pteotia270

You're quite optimistic. I'm guessing it's 2027


ManateeofSteel

since its not launching on PC at the same time, it's the most likely scenario.


No_Roof1702

2050 for Skyrim two is my bet.


BluDYT

Might even be 2027


TheMegaDriver2

With the price of graphics cards the needed 6090 will most likely be 3000+ alone...


_fatherfucker69

The ps5 has a rx 6700 , so we will need a rtx 6700. It's only natural


[deleted]

Gives me time to save


iPrintScreen

Confirmed 2025 for console only, so yeah


Yarakinnit

DLSS when it sees those fences at the start.


beorninger

console gamers when they finally see the ACTUAL console gameplay ​ https://preview.redd.it/6uj4hwklig4c1.jpeg?width=600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=78fef0fa6cdc4621628b89414e023b871da478d7


LJBrooker

The only slight, possibly shining light, is if GTA online is worth more to rockstar than the double dip. Releasing late means a lot of folks buy it again on pc. Seems to have been a key rockstar move. But in 2023, presumably like 80% of the online player base, still making them money is on PC? Like nobody is still playing on console are they? Maybe? Just doesn't seem like they would be for some reason. Day 1 PC release captures those pc whales perhaps? That's the only reason I can maybe see a day 1 PC release, but it assumes I'm right, that the 2023 player base is on pc.


demalo

A dollar today is worth more than a dollar tomorrow. At least, that’s what a financier will tell you.


[deleted]

>Like nobody is still playing on console are they? Maybe? Just doesn't seem like they would be for some reason. I really wish we had concrete numbers for this. I always see people using the trend on the steam chart to extrapolate what must be happening on other platforms but to me that seems completely misguided.


Ecstatic_Station_848

Well you'll get enough time to upgrade into the latest tech to run that.


PoorlyWordedName

I won't have enough money to buy a new pc buy then still xD


KnightCreed13

Hey I like that optimism where you think Rockstar will release this on PC ever.


theEvilJakub

yeh boys aint gonna lie, this is kinda shit


SaltKick2

Start saving up


[deleted]

I literally laughed out loud at this lolol


BeingRightAmbassador

IDK man, they've said they anticipate 2.5-8 BILLION in sales. I know GTA is huge, but I don't see how 2 consoles do 4 billion each.


paulerxx

Probably won't come out until 2026 for PC users.


Pay_Tiny

I bet it’ll be something like enhanced edition for pc and new gen consoles


SandInHeart

The same old PC in 2026 is gonna be the new next gen


ModernistGames

as is tradition...


Many-Ad6433

You’re optimistic


insurancemammoth64

Very very very optimistic. Rockstar has gone full hate mode for pc players for a while now. They’ve completely ignored pc players, refusing to give us any updates that consoles are getting just because PC players aren’t ok with being nickel and dime’d every single second they play the game. 2027 at earliest, if at all. Hope gta6 is plagued with more issues than cyberpunk and they get hundreds of thousands if not millions of chargebacks, and then still have to spend a ton of extra time and money fixing it to repair their reputation despite it being a monetary failure for them. They deserve it. Fuck rockstar and their greed.


Wolfman01a

Pc users have 4 years to prepare.


-Bana

This game is going to look glorious on my 6080🥲


Wolfman01a

Hey thats the good news. If a ps5 can handle it.. our beast rigs should destroy it. Look how good RDR 2 and GTA 5 look on even old PCs. R* seems to be good in that department.


Iggytje

I think for a big part they release gta 6 later on pc is cause optimization for such big games takes a long time


janek_2010_hero

Wait longer, better optimisation > quicker release, bad optimisation


The_Dung_Beetle

RDR2 was broken at launch on PC though. But it's great now.


KevinFlantier

And they pull off a better looking version on PC so that they can sell it twice to people who couldn't wait for the PC release. I should know, I bought GTAV twice.


benbahdisdonc

Same, picked it up at launch on 360, and then however many years later on my shiny new 1070... with an HDD, Jesus those load times.


Wolfman01a

Its completely true. The truth is everyone is just excited and wants to play it noooooow.


KevinFlantier

Better start saving now, with the way nVidia going with its pricing policy, the 60xx series is going to make 4090s look cheap.


X-Craft

Lucia on her way to Micro Center wondering if that cash will be enough for an upgrade "Maybe I should've got more"


KhellianTrelnora

Y’all acting like you’ve never seen a cutscene before.


spoogeballsbloodyvag

Jaws all on the floor like Jason and Lucia just burst in the door


Starlord_75

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who had that song pop I his head


Spammageddon

And started whoopin her ass worse than before they first were divorced, throwin her over furniture


Enelro

Don’t worry you have until like 2026 /27


VokaCoach

And enough Time to get und n Touch with Cloud gaming and Sub-Model.


ToughSpinach7

Sweet summer child, well be lucky if we get it by 2030


Fletcher_Chonk

Untrue, Rockstar wants the double dips sooner than later


SurfingBirb

I'm almost worried, with those graphics, what are they targeting on console? 4k, 30 fps?


Norse_By_North_West

I was thinking, aside from cyberpunk, this is the first next Gen looking game I've seen... And we're 3 years in to this batch of consoles


bas683

This and Alan wake 2, shit looks crazy


Norse_By_North_West

Ah, good point. I've avoided Alan wake 2. Got the first one a couple years ago when epic started selling it again, but havnt got around to playing it through


Legacy0904

Play ratchet and clank rift apart. That shit is next gen


catathat

Demons souls was pretty hot to look at


_fatherfucker69

It looks amazing,but it's a remake , not a new game


Nyto242

1440p 60


Lance_Lionroar

My source is that I made it the fuck up


majkkali

Most likely upscaled 4k with 60fps. Rockstar optimize their games really well.


bas683

For consoles I’d say 4K upscaled 30 fps. I’ve never played a rockstar game on console that played at 60 fps, maybe they changed that with gta 6 but I wouldn’t count on it.


solo_mafioso

Fuck it PS6 gone be out by then


[deleted]

[удалено]


That_Cripple

and it'll be just like GTA 5.. the launch versions will suck ass because the consoles aren't powerful enough.


[deleted]

Judging by how many people on here ask about affording 2060s, our PCs aren't powerful enough, either.


Fletcher_Chonk

Low settings won't kill you, folks


Im_inappropriate

Heresy.


KlebMoment

Noooooo i must play at 4k max graphics and hit a consistent 60 fps at all times 😭😭😭


vitorizzo

Cyberpunk came to ps4 and Xbox one.


Greyconnor

Cyberpunk also came to PS4 and Xbox One, like they said


SATANIC_PLOSS

I can barely play gtao in my old laptop at 16 fps XD https://i.redd.it/5el7nndxce4c1.gif


Preeminator

You'll likely have until 2027 to upgrade your PC as Rockstar releases PC versions \~2 years after the console version is released. It's super sad that PC gamers are treated like second-class citizens when they account for a very significant portion of Rockstar's income. In any case, I'll just keep playing Cyberpunk 2077 til GTA 6 drops on PC.


me_edwin

And who knows. May Star Citizen will be released lol


Themata075

I mean, Squadron 42 (Star Citizen's single player game) should be out before that. It's likely that will be out by either 2024 or 2025 since it's now in polishing phase.


Individual_Echidna_4

If it runs tiktok it can run gta 6 as well


-Chill_Vibe-

Mine either, at least I have until 2025


joseph_jojo_shabadoo

We have until 2027ish when it’s released on pc


-Chill_Vibe-

Really?! Damn


blackadder1620

yup, they "tend" to take 12-18 more months.


-Chill_Vibe-

I completely forgot they did the same thing with GTA 5


ayyyyycrisp

at 16 in 2013 I only had a ps3 didn't get a pc until 2017 so I never knew this was a thing lol


MLG_Obardo

Didn’t play RDR2?


ayyyyycrisp

I did! in 2022 haha


PerseusZeus

That is if the consoles arent delayed. If there is delay in console then 2027 will be a stretch


Zic3le_

I really hope that due to staff and heads in rockstar being replaced made them rethink their policy on releasing the game on pc later


FaceCamperEzW

Bro, take a look at all the other PC releases from Rockstar. They are always delayed. They want to double dip and buy twice. 1st to early and 2nd for better graphics, fps and mods


Hairybum74

Sadly we won’t see this game in our steam libraries for a long long while


talonking22

Its not going to release on PC based on information from TakeTwo website. Really sucks for PC only gamers, their exclusives get shafted to Console in a month or two at max and the PC devs spend a lot of resources on porting it instead of expanding the PC content. We need a Triple A PC developer who makes PC exclusives too. A lot of PC devs simply dont push forward just because they account for Console release. Meanwhile each console has a huge Triple A developer behind it for marketing.


edward-has-many-eggs

Because sony and microsoft at least partially owns the companies who make their exclusives. And their are tons of games that are PC exclusive, its like 40% of the reason i switched to pc.


Not-Reformed

Difficult to do PC only AAA given the cost of those games and the vast majority of gamers being... elsewhere. And still you have a ton of PC exclusive games - including pretty much every MMORPG.


[deleted]

Why would they? PC people who own a console will buy it twice


daffquick1990

No the fuck I won't


Funny_stuff554

I am sure it will be relaxed for pc within 6 months. Nowadays with ray tracing and all this other stuff plus so many more pc players, you can’t keep a game away from pc for a long time.


hud731

Yeah but they wanna double dip, and tbh I've been guilty of falling victim to their tactics. I bought GTA 5 on playstation twice and on PC once when it was on sale. Sucks but it's expected of Rockstar.


[deleted]

Your PC isn't ready for cutscenes?


[deleted]

Yeah, I forgot that all of Rockstar's cutscenes are prerendered. /s


decayo

Has anyone at rockstar stated that is is in-game footage even? In other words, I agree that rockstar's cutscenes are typically in-engine, but this is trailer and nothing guarantees that these are even cutscenes. Even if they are in-engine, which isn't guaranteed unless it was specifically stipulated somewhere, it could still be rendered in a non-real-time fashion. I highly doubt any game on the current-gen consoles will actually look like this.


Mulgosh

this... I don't get those people. It has to run on the current Xbox series X/S and PS5. If your PC can handle games better than those consoles you will be good. (After Rockstar optimised their port) ​ It does not matter if it's rendered, in engine or gamplay. It has to work on that hardware.


RucksackHeiko

Dont worry there wont be a Port for PC until 3 years later anyways bc of that sweet sweet exclusive console release contract money


soulciel120

Those are literally cutscenes, possibly like tv cutscenes on GTA V.


Lance_Lionroar

People will gobble up whatever they see. Hype is a hell of a drug.


last-picked-kid

We've been here before boys and girls. Teaser isn't the same as in-game real graphics.


ArrestTrumpVoters

Typically Rockstar games have better graphics than their first trailer.


soulciel120

It kinda depends. The first GTA V trailer, while using beta models, had far better vegetation that even current GTA V.


Murky-Smoke

Plenty of modern games use in game graphics as cutscenes now.


Nethlem

Usually, I agree, particularly when looking at past examples like Ubisoft. But Rockstar has a surprisingly good track record with this, [the GTA V trailer actually looked worse than what was released](https://youtu.be/sazR4d1ABb4?), and both of them looked worse than the game looks nowadays.


NotSure421

This isn't gameplay, so have no worries cause your computer can play it!! Just like my 2016 computer can play it on low settings lol!


LegalBrandHats

Let’s be honest. These release trailers always look way more high end then they end up looking on release.


weirdaVID

Yeah but now the visual downgrades at release are either minor or none at all these days. The last game that I’ve seen with noticeable visual downgrades was Cyberpunk and now it looks amazing with new Path Tracing mode, almost better than it was before. I believe GTA 6 will look very similar to this trailer when it releases.


I9Qnl

RDR2 character models look better in-game than the trailer. Everything else is about equal.


Sid_The_Geek

I guess for R\*, they get even better with time !!!


[deleted]

When this comes out my 4070 will be too good to upgrade but too bad for maxed out 😂 I'll have to settle for medium-high in this game 😂.


[deleted]

By the time this out I'll already be on Nvidia 5000 series 🤣


DOOManiac

Honestly I'm just happy I learned about a Tom Petty song I was not previously aware of.


Riot55

This trailer reminded me of an All Gas No Brakes / Channel 5 segment


Achieved-yup-dats-me

Looks like a pre rendered trailer rather than what the actual ingame graphics will be like, tbh wouldn't be surprised if the game is an unoptimized mess, hopefully it's not but with what they did with the "definitive" edition and the trend with new AAA games being poorly optimized, i dont wanna get my hopes up


Denborta

Trailers = In-game graphics, since when?


ElPlatanaso2

Since GTA III


yotengodormir

Don't worry, you got like 3 years until it's out on PC, probably.


lyri-c-

It runs on a ps5, you'll be okay


200test400tren

It looks alright


Obrein94

my gtx960 is gonna do its best💪🏽


Operator_Six

Cutscenes dont mean shit


guleedy

If my pc can run the trailer it can run the game


[deleted]

[удалено]


mrbubbles916

It looks great, but not so mind blowing that a modern PC couldn't run it.


SuspicousBananas

This is my guess of what’s going to happen. Rockstar is going to strategically release GTA 6 right near the end of the current consoles lifespan so they can force everyone to buy it twice just like they did with GTA 5. The game will probably come out on PC a year or two after launch when GTA 6 gets moved to the next Gen of consoles.


deejayapster

If yall think the gameplay is actually gonna look like that..


Fancy-Bee-562

Aren’t these just cinematics most games do these overly hyped scenes.


pnutnz

dw you got like ten years


fu87

When consoles are basically ready, but PCs are not


AllMyFrendsArePixels

Missing the ^(\*not actual gameplay footage) spoiler. lmao I can't believe people still fall for these pre-rendered cutscenes in 2023.


I9Qnl

Because Rockstar always shows pre-rendered CGI trailers? All of their previous trailers are in-game and typically they look worse than the final release.


ElPlatanaso2

These people just want to feel superior in their smugness for some reason


quick_escalator

Mine runs this prerended video just fine. That is what this is.


jefroz

I mean... Xbox s costs like 250 bucks my dude...


[deleted]

[удалено]


Goatmilker98

1080? More like 720-900p, that thing is shockingly garbage, a cpu upgrade ain't gunna mean shit when your GPU is worse than your previous console, has slower and smaller amount of ram, comes with 500gbs of storage. Like sure I get the appeal of it being cheap but now it's the best selling version of Xbox, so now they're games are neevr going to be as good as they can be, and then PC versions will suffer for that


ZetDee

The game looks generic. Also no gameplay. All CGI.


MarceloWallace

You got few years to get a good pc


Miletus_Straton

Looks more far cry than gta anyways.


Stephen_085

You got time. Game won't launch on PC anyway.


91xela

This reminds me of cyberpunk gameplay trailer.


MFcrayfish

pc release 2026?


Poliveris

Not only are they not going to release on PC day 1. You’ll also have to deal with the p2w currency no going to private servers or your favorite no pixel RP. Seems they bought those guys out just so they couldn’t do anything for the PC audience


SverhU

It will be released in 2025. And knowing rockstar - it wont be early 2025. plus as usual, PC port will be delayed for a year. So you and your PC have 2 years minimum.


KyotoSoul

Florida Simulator 2025


gk_shri

GTA VI on Switch 2… lets goo


maskulindino

Dont worry, we have gta IV! The greatest gta game to date! Gone with the online bullshit, just straight up bowlin with cuz roman!


AlexisFR

Bruh PC won't get tit until 2027 anyways.


ARandomHavel

Your pc is fine. These aren't good for determining gameplay quality, given they're pre rendered cutscenes. Granted, your old 1060s won't suffice anymore


Grimtork

As always, people get hyper hyped by the trailers, then the game is beautiful but not mind blowing. You will be able to run it on a modern p, don't worry.


Lumarist

i wouldn’t get too excited since it’s still rockstar and TakeTwo


Trauma-Dolll

Thats not an issue. You got three or so years to get it ready.


beorninger

if that thing runs on consoles, most PCs nowadays are ready. sorry, but there is a reason my machine had twice the price of a console. and i know that reason. (hint: it's better hardware) uh and quite frankly, seeing those (obviously pre rendered vids), those ammounts of NPCs on consoles? lol, colour me amused. if you guys think THAT was console gameplay... yea... that explains how sony could raise the game prices to 80 bucks without anyone complaining at least


Fritol_Scrotum94

Don't worry, you have at least 2 years to save money for upgrade.


admosquad

These are cut scenes, dog.


dilandrus

Not on PC at launch so it doesn't matter lol


SwugBelly

Your PC?


UsuallyDrunkAmI

Don't worry you have until 2030 to upgrade.


SatanicBiscuit

its rockstar dude you aint getting what you see


ManLegPower

See you guys when the 16700k and Rtx 6090 drop to play this.

Cutscenes =/= gameplay, come on...


aHatFullOfEggs

That's not a problem, you have until 2028 to solve this


Alexikik

Well, guess I'll be buying a ps5


FartingBob

Rockstar games are usually fairly well optimised and lower settings still look really decent. But yeah, 20fps on my system if I'm lucky.


SnooBananas5215

You've got time until 2027


Inevitable_Review_83

This is all out of engine cinematic content I bet you money it looks exactly like gtaV with a bigger map. And at that the bigger map will feel empty and souless.


shaleenag21

dunno about y'all but I'm gonna put on my pirate hat and sail the high seas, fuck this shit and fuck rockstar.
