    Ye gods. A new GTA game should not take THIRTEEN YEARS to come out. The games make more money than Portugal - how is their project pipeline this bad?

    Are we looking at less than one GTA game per *decade* now?

    I saw it on twitter too. People are roasting this guy for not crediting any actual sources.

    Would be a shame if this was true but I’d rather see it delayed than released unpolished.

      Why not delayed AND unpolished AND with day 1 patches AND with day 1 DLC?

      Seems to be most games today.

    It’s good to hear rumors against the rumor that GTA6 was never coming to PC.

      PC gamers pirate way more and are unpleasable, so I’m not surprised that devs hold off on PC so much

        They’re just trying to do the double dipping strategy that worked so well for them for GTA V, and possibly RDR2. The big thing that’s changed even since RDR2 came out though is that PC is now the largest platform for this type of game. Some percentage of people will go buy a PS5 to play this game as soon as possible, but I’ll bet more people will be patient for a PC version this time around. Of course, with a 2026 release date, the next Xbox might be launched or imminent by the time the console version comes out, and that next Xbox might basically just be a dressed up PC.

    Wouldn’t surprise me if they pulled the same exact shit with the PC release. It’ll probably be full price as well, despite being over a year old when it releases on there. It’s not like I was planning on buying it anyway, certainly not outside of the grey market for 90% off.
