After much anticipation, the long-awaited trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6 (GTA 6) has finally graced our screens. Feedback for it has been nothing short of phenomenal, with the game’s visuals drawing many compliments. Given that a decade has passed since the introduction of GTA 5, it’s obvious that significant advancements have been made.
Breathtakingly beautiful and set in a fictional version of Miami, Florida, called Vice City, the game is confirmed to launch on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. However, based on Rockstar’s patterns, fans are already wondering when a PC launch might occur and even discussing possible GTA 6 PC system requirements.
The expected minimum graphics and PC system requirements for the highly-anticipated Grand Theft Auto 6 are going to be explored in this article.
Minimum GTA 6 graphics card requirements for PC (expected)
The expected Grand Theft Auto 6 PC requirements have been surmised, although official confirmation of a PC version has not yet been given. Here are the expected system requirements:
Minimum System Requirements:
- OS: Windows 10/11
- CPU: Intel Core i7 8700K/AMD Ryzen 7 3700x
- Memory: 8GB RAM
- GPU: Nvidia Geforce GTX 1080Ti/AMD Radeon RX5700XT
- DirectX: Version 12
- Storage: 150GB Solid State Drive
Recommended System Requirements:
- OS: Windows 11 64-bit
- CPU: Intel Core i9-10900K/AMD Ryzen 5 5900X
- Memory: 32GB RAM
- GPU: Nvidia Geforce RTX 3080/AMD Radeon RX 6800XT
- DirectX: Version 12
- Storage: 150GB NVMe SSD
Though the finalized Grand Theft Auto 6 system requirements may differ slightly from the specs listed above, you can rest assured they will exceed GTA 5’s system requirements.
An Nvidia Geforce GTX 1080Ti GPU or an AMD Radeon RX 5700XT and 16GB of RAM are estimated recommended specs for decent graphical performance on GTA 6. On the other hand, the estimated GTA 6 minimum requirements include an Nvidia Geforce GTX 1080Ti GPU or an AMD Radeon RX 5700XT and 8GB of RAM.
For upcoming games set to be released in 2024 or beyond, 12GB of RAM or even higher may be required, though it’s important to note that these figures are simply projections and may not be entirely accurate. Furthermore, there is the possibility that the game will require even more resources than initially predicted.
GTA 6 file size (expected)
For Grand Theft Auto 6 on PC, the anticipated download size is between 100GB and 120GB when installed on an SSD drive, estimated by considering GTA 5’s requirements that called for over 100GB of space.
Moreover, it is expected that an SSD will likely be included as part of the title’s specifications. That’s mainly because of the growing trend of minimum requirements for games that include SSD drives.
When can we expect GTA 6’s PC release?
Given the expected release date of GTA 6 for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S to be sometime during Fall 2025 exclusively, it is unlikely that a new generation of consoles will emerge anytime soon. Following the popular Rockstar Games trend, the game may be released on PC around seven to eight months after its console launch, putting it around April or May 2026.
