GTA 6 minimum system requirements: Predictions and speculation

The GTA 6 minimum system requirements for PC are something many want to know, and for good reason. Rockstar Games dropped a second trailer of the game earlier this year, showing jaw-dropping graphics never seen before in the series. Naturally, one would want to know what the possible GTA 6 PC system requirements are if the game ever comes out on the popular platform.

While we await Rockstar to officially announce a PC port, let's explore what the possible GTA 6 minimum system requirements could look like.

Note: This article is purely speculative and only reflects the writer's opinions and analysis.

Expected GTA 6 minimum system requirements for its potential PC port

As stated earlier, the GTA 6 trailer 2 and official screenshots suggest that the game could be extremely demanding. The visuals look incredibly realistic, be it the character models, environment, lighting effects, or reflections.

Hence, it goes without saying that a powerful PC would be required to properly run a potential port for this platform. Recently, Steam revealed minimum system requirements for the upcoming Mafia: The Old Country game by Take-Two Interactive. Taking it as a base, we can speculate on the potential GTA 6 PC port's system requirements.

Expected GTA 6 minimum system requirements on PC:

Based on the market analysis, here are the potential GTA 6 system requirements on PC:

Operating System: Windows 10/11
Processor: Intel Core i7 9700K/AMD Ryzen 7 2700X
Memory (RAM): 16 GB RAM
Graphics Card: Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070/AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT
DirectX: Version 12
Storage: 100 GB Solid State Drive (SSD)

Other things included in the potential GTA 6 minimum system requirements for PC:

A 64-bit processor
A 64-bit operating system
SSD
1080p resolution
Medium graphic preset

A large portion of about 100GB of storage space is expected for its download, as Grand Theft Auto 6 looks expansive.

Keep in mind that these GTA 6 minimum system requirements are based merely on speculation, so readers are advised to take them with a grain of salt. If there is going to be a PC port in the future, Rockstar will announce its official system requirements thereafter.

At the moment, there is no mention of a GTA 6 PC port by Rockstar Games, and the game is only scheduled to be released on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S on May 26, 2025.
