What's official today.

Launch date

Grand Theft Auto VI releases November 19, 2026.

Expected PC requirements (prediction)

EXPECTED — not official. Based on Grand Theft Auto VI recent titles.

How we predicted this

Rockstar's RAGE engine. GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2 ran on a GTX 1060 / RX 580 at recommended spec, so GTA 6 on current-gen hardware should land in a similar band, likely a step up given the larger, denser open world shown in the extended look.

How this estimate is calculated

Full transparency on the model.

Method

We map each studio's last 1–2 PC releases to a hardware-demand tier, then project the new title onto the same band (a step up for visibly larger worlds / new engine features). GPU relative-performance indices are from the TechPowerUp GPU database (https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/), retrieved 2026-08-29. This is editorial estimation, not a benchmark. Verify on your own hardware once official specs post.
