Rockstar <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/grand-theft-auto\/theres-really-only-one-reason-for-rockstar-to-release-grand-theft-auto-6-later-on-pc\/\" target=\"_blank\">loves the double dip<\/a>, but punching the button again so soon after the console release would surely be viewed dimly by a not-insignificant number of people who would prefer the flexibility and power of the PC, but really don&#8217;t want to wait for it.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, if Rockstar or Take-Two confirms the GTA 6 PC release date really is that close\u2014Take-Two&#8217;s next quarterly financial report takes place on November 9, which might be a time for such a thing\u2014some no doubt <em>would <\/em>wait for it, cannibalizing launch sales to some extent. <\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s no shortage of people on social media saying they will indeed wait to buy GTA 6 if the PC version is indeed coming that quickly. That feeling may be even more widespread than it appears, given how much GTA 6 costs: At <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/grand-theft-auto\/gta-6-might-not-technically-be-usd100-but-its-had-its-cake-and-ate-it-too-as-pre-orders-are-skewing-more-to-the-premium-edition\/\">$100 for the premium edition<\/a> and all the exclusive content it contains, you can understand why people might be more reticent about buying it multiple times than they were for earlier games in the series.<\/p>\n<p>How about <em>you?<\/em><\/p>\n<div style=\"min-height: 250px;\">\n<div class=\"kwizly-quiz kwizly-eJ9EEX\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p> <script src=\"https:\/\/kwizly.com\/embed\/eJ9EEX.js\" async><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Anything&#8217;s possible, of course, and I would never presume to have a better understanding of these things than Strauss Zelnick and the rest of the GTA brain trust.
