GTA 6 PC System Requirements: What to Expect
There is no official GTA 6 PC spec sheet yet. Here is what the console hardware implies, and how to actually prepare in the meantime.
No system requirements exist for a version of the game that has not been announced. This page exists to explain that clearly rather than to hand you a fabricated spec list, and to cover what is genuinely useful to know in the meantime.
What the console version implies
GTA 6 launches on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and S only, skipping the previous console generation entirely. On consoles, Rockstar says the game targets 30 frames per second, with PS5 Pro adding PSSR upscaling and ray-traced shadows (details in our performance breakdown). A game built to push current console hardware that hard usually means a demanding PC version once one exists, in line with how demanding GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2 were on PC relative to their console targets.
What actually helps right now
- Wait for Rockstar's own announcement rather than building a PC around a guess.
- If you are upgrading anyway, prioritise the components previous Rockstar PC ports leaned on hardest: CPU single core speed and VRAM, more than raw GPU power alone.
- Check our PC release date guide for the realistic timeline, since specs will not appear until much closer to an actual PC launch.
Frequently Asked Questions

Not announced. There is no PC version confirmed yet, so no official specifications exist.
Will GTA 6 be demanding on PC?
Likely, given that it is built only for current consoles and that Rockstar's last two PC ports were demanding, though nothing is confirmed.
