The GTA VI PC Release Could Be Coming Soon
We are less than two weeks away from the highly anticipated console launch of GTA VI. Despite this, Rockstar has kept quiet about any potential PC version or release date. However a former Rockstar developer believes it could be coming soon.
A Port Will Appear, One Way or Another
GTA VI is arriving on November 19th for both the Xbox Series X & S, as well as the Playstation 5. However, its developer Rockstar Games has yet to mention anything about a PC Version or release date. This has left many fans wondering how long the wait will be before they can play the title on that platform.
Despite this, former Rockstar technical developer Obbe Vermeij believes the port will arrive sooner than later. In an interview with Rock, Paper, Shotgun, Vermeij argues that Rockstar might be forced to release a PC version earlier than planned for due to the rise in AI assisted coding.
“I would be concerned, if I was Rockstar, that somebody would just take the PS5 version and get AI to change it to PC” states Vermeij. “It will take a long time. It actually, physically takes hours and hours and hours to do these things… but like, you know, if it’s GTA, I think people are gonna try it.”
Vermeij no longer works at Rockstar after leaving in 2009, and says that he has no insider knowledge in the interview: “obviously, I don’t really know what they’re thinking.” Nevertheless, the possibility of a third party port of GTA VI is something that Rockstar would have to consider. “I don’t really see how you could protect against that, to be honest” Vermeij remarks on.
Even though Rockstar hasn’t announced any PC port of GTA VI yet, with the amount of hype and anticipation surrounding the title it looks like a version will appear, one way or another.
