The release of the second trailer for Grand Theft Auto VI, along with a significant update to its official website, has confirmed that the game will launch on May 26, 2026, for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and S. The trailer, captured specifically on a PS5, clearly showcased these platforms at the end, leaving fans to speculate about potential releases on other platforms such as PC and the Nintendo Switch 2.
The absence of any mention of a PC version in the trailer has led to discussions about whether Rockstar Games and its parent company Take-Two are missing out on a significant market. Historically, Rockstar has opted for staggered releases, prioritizing consoles before eventually bringing their titles to PC. This approach has sparked debate, especially considering the growing importance of PC gaming in the success of multiplatform titles.
In an interview with IGN in February, Take-Two's CEO Strauss Zelnick hinted at an eventual PC release for GTA 6, noting that PC versions can account for up to 40% of a game's total sales. He emphasized the increasing significance of the PC market and predicted its continued growth, even as new console generations emerge.
Meanwhile, the lack of a Nintendo Switch 2 logo in the trailer suggests that GTA 6 might not be coming to Nintendo's next-gen console at launch. While the capabilities of the Switch 2 remain undisclosed, its confirmed support for games like Cyberpunk 2077 had fueled hopes for a GTA 6 release on this platform, particularly given that the game is also planned for the less powerful Xbox Series S.
As fans eagerly await more details, the staggered release strategy of Rockstar continues to be a point of contention. The delay to May 2026 has raised questions about whether this could be an opportunity for a simultaneous PC launch, but for now, it appears that console players will be the first to explore the world of GTA 6.
