Problem isn't that, since the handheld is just running windows it can only run games with a PC release. If the game was never ported to PC they currently have no way to play it. They really thought through the whole release real well.

    Wonder if this will force the issue on a PC release of GTA VI sooner rather than later.

    Or maybe Rockstar won't care.

  • Honestly I'm surprised they're still thinking about that. The last major release they had was RDR2 in 2018. That was 7 years ago now. In that time not only have handhelds and more PC devices exploded but also PCs as a whole thanks to COVID. It's just more popular than it ever was. If they go forward with console only they better have a massive kickback from Sony now that Xbox isn't playing as much, otherwise they're missing out on tons of sales.

    Edit: Actually writing that out, I bet the PC port is planned a year behind and always was, but GTA 6 was planned years ago before the boom. I wonder if we'll see RDR3's PC come at the same time.
