Can I Run Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6)?
2026 · Action · Official PC system requirements have not been announced yet.
Official PC system requirements for Grand Theft Auto VI have not been published. Rockstar Games has not released a minimum or recommended specification, so any exact CPU, GPU, RAM or storage figure circulating online is unofficial and should be treated as speculation. This page intentionally does not list invented numbers. It will be updated with the real requirements, and the compatibility checker enabled, as soon as Rockstar publishes them.
What is actually known
Rockstar has confirmed the game for modern consoles, which sets a useful baseline: a title built for current-generation hardware typically expects a recent multi-core CPU, a solid-state drive, and a dedicated graphics card rather than integrated graphics on PC. Beyond that baseline, the precise PC requirements, the PC release timing, and any features such as ray tracing or upscaling support remain unannounced.
What to realistically expect (not official)
As a reference point, Rockstar’s previous open-world release, Red Dead Redemption 2, was demanding at launch and rewarded a mid-range or better graphics card, 12 to 16 GB of RAM, and fast storage. A reasonable expectation – again, not an official requirement – is that GTA VI will want at least 16 GB of RAM, an SSD with substantial free space, and a modern mid-range or higher GPU to run comfortably at 1080p. Treat this only as guidance for planning a future build, not as a specification.
How to be ready
If you are planning an upgrade in advance, the safest approach is to aim for a current 16 GB (or 32 GB) system with a recent mid-range graphics card and an SSD, which also covers today’s most demanding releases. The PC gaming specs guide explains how to choose each component, and you can check a released Rockstar title now, such as Grand Theft Auto V or Red Dead Redemption 2, to gauge where your current PC stands.
