Former Rockstar dev talks about why GTA 6 will head to PC after consoles

PC gamers were probably disheartened to learn that, much like all previous Rockstar games, Grand Theft Auto 6 would be arriving a little later on Windows. But according to a former Rockstar developer, the decision to go console-first mostly has to do with marketing. According to former Rockstar developer Mike York (who’s previously worked on GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2 and discussed this in a YouTube video) the company always prioritizes “what sells.” “One of the main things I want to touch on is that the reason why…

People are remaking the GTA 6 trailer in other games

As of right now, the official GTA 6 trailer has been watched on YouTube more than 140 million times. It’s become one of the most-watched video game announcements of all time. Given that, it was inevitable that some would want a piece of that success by recreating their own versions.

The reel uploaded to their profile shows the blocky recreation of Rockstar’s trailer, complete with…

GTA 6 didn’t need The Game Awards

This past week was one of the most crowded for video game news because of two events: The Game Awards 2023 and the Grand Theft Auto VI trailer. Initially, I was surprised the two weren’t one and the same. GTA 6’s reveal is the most significant game announcement of the year, after all, and Geoff Keighley always seems to be searching for big Elden Ring- or GTA 6-level moments for his show, even if he doesn’t always get those. After taking a step back and looking at how each performed independently of the other, I think…

I’m glad GTA 6 isn’t coming to PC right away

Rockstar Games It looks like Grand Theft Auto 6 won’t come to PC when it releases in 2025. Developer Rockstar hasn’t confirmed that’s the case, but a press release put out alongside the trailer said the game would release on Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5, with no mention of PC. Unsurprisingly, there’s outrage. PCGamer says that there’s “no technical reason” for GTA 6 not coming to PC at launch, while TechRadar’s Matt Hanson says the lack of a PC release confirmed his “worst fears.” Those are just comments among…
