Grand Theft Auto 5 will be released on PC in Q1 2014 – report

4.6
Grand Theft Auto 5 will be released on PC in 2014, according to multiple industry sources close to Eurogamer.

The release plan mirrors the same one used for Grand Theft Auto 4, which released on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on April 29 before launching on PC the following December.

In August Nvidia’s senior director of investor relations, Chris Evenden, noted a PC version of GTA 5 during a financial call, but the firm said this was made in error.

Earlier this week, Intel executive Chris R. Silva said he expects Grand Theft Auto 5 to come to PC eventually, suggesting the PC version was excluded at launch due to “someone” paying to keep it on consoles.

Supposedly, a source code for the PC and a PlayStation 4 version were found in the Xbox 360 version, which oddly did not include a source code for Xbox One.

To date, almost 600,000 people have signed a petition asking for the game on PC.

The sources state the game will be released on PC in the first quarter of 2014.

I guess it's soon time to upgrade if you're looking to play new games on PC. It seems that the PC Gaming community is only getting larger

Gigahertz Really can't wait for this. The graphics on Xbox were quite bad. Hopefully they ramp it up a bit for the systems that can actually handle it.


Xbox One saaaaan! Cain't wait.


graphics bad? compared to the other gta graphics were amazing, just make sure you play in 720p and have sharpness turned down then usual

Lavish GTA5 on PC will stomp anything console could bring towards. So much more fun on a keyboard and mouse than a controller.


Huh? It's way funner on a controller in my opinion. Well, apart from aiming. This is why I have the Xbox controller for Windows.


Once you learn how to use a keyboard and mouse, it is a lot better.
You have way more controller over your character than you could ever have with a controller.
