GTA6 system requirements: PC specs (not yet announced) and what to expect
GTA6 launches 2026-11-19 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S only. The PC version has not been announced, which means there are no official PC system requirements yet. This article lays out what we know, what to infer, and what's still unconfirmed.
What we know (official)
- PC is not a launch platform — GTA6 ships console-first.
- No official PC specs have been published.
- Rockstar has not confirmed a PC release date (rumors point to 2027+).
What we can infer from Red Dead Redemption 2
RDR2 (Rockstar's last PC port, 2019) required roughly:
| Tier | RDR2 (2019) |
|---|---|
| Minimum | GTX 770 / RX 280 |
| Recommended | GTX 1060 / RX 480 |
GTA6 is a far more demanding, next-gen-only title, so expect requirements to sit substantially higher.
Our estimates (unconfirmed — treat as speculation)
| Tier | Speculation (do not buy hardware on this) |
|---|---|
| Minimum (1080p/30) | RTX 2060 / RX 6600, 16 GB RAM, SSD |
| Recommended (1440p/60) | RTX 3070 / RX 6800, 16 GB RAM, SSD |
| High (4K/60+) | RTX 4070 Ti / RX 7900 XT, 32 GB RAM, NVMe SSD |
These are our own educated guesses based on console specs and Rockstar's history — not official numbers. Don't upgrade your PC until Rockstar publishes real specs.
What we can be confident about
- SSD is effectively required — next-gen titles are built around fast storage.
- 16 GB RAM is the sensible floor for 2026+ AAA games.
- Expect ~150 GB+ of storage (GTA5 plus updates already exceeds 100 GB).
Bottom line
Wait for Rockstar's official PC announcement and specs before buying or upgrading hardware. We'll update this page the moment real requirements are published.
No official PC system requirements have been announced. Figures marked "speculation" are our estimates, not Rockstar data.
