Grand Theft Auto V PC release date moved, specs revealed

Rockstar Games announced today that they have moved the PC launch of Grand Theft Auto V from January 27th to March 24th.

Rockstar Games released an apology stating the reason why the launch was moved.

"Our apologies for the slight shift in the date but the game requires a few extra weeks of testing and polish to make it as good as can be. Moving a release date is never a decision we take lightly and is a choice we make only when we know it is in the best interests of the game and our fans. Thanks everyone for your understanding and we assure you these few extra weeks will be worth it when the game does arrive in March."

GTA Online for PC will support up to 30 players and will include heists. Rockstar Games also stated that heists for the consoles will be launching in the next couple weeks.

-Brennan I think its funny that when they do release this people will be hacking it like crazy for the first few weeks im sure


You obviously have not played many games on pc. In all honestly i have come across more hackers on console than pc. The main reason is most games have software to find anyone that does. Plus many games have active admins to deal with them. Pc gamers look at mods to enhance a game or make it into a new game. Console gamers look at modders as cheaters because thats what most console mods are for.

MrXboxHacker i have everything except the cpu part which sucks! ill have to find an external cpu for my laptop. that can handle the game


What? You cant have an external cpu. The cpu is pretty much the heart of your pc.

Yeah you are right there but a console is a console pc might be better is a lot of ways but so is a xbox or a ps they all have there pro's and con's.


Both have their pros and cons but pc has more pros. Arguing that consoles are better is like arguing that the world is flat.

AMD_FX Are you **** kidding me????? THEY HAVE DELAYED THIS GAME SO MANY DAMN TIMES. Im pissed. I took off a week of work for this shit and now its delayed. Thanks rockstar. Assholes. Now I am just gonna torrent the damn game.


I wonder if you would be more mad at an unfinished game riddled with bugs and compatibility issues or a delay. Not surprised in the least at this delay since they have not been releasing any real info for a while and it has been coming to the date they said earlier.
