GTA 6 is likely to skip PC again and only launching on current gen consoles (kotaku.com)

I'm confused why Kotaku mentioning next gen in the title when Rockstar only commented on current generation PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.

I’m not buying a console for this game. Pc gaming has gotten a lot bigger, I’d be surprised if they skipped it.

And unlike when GTA5 came out, now the XBox and PlayStation have the same CPU architecture as PC.

Still I wont be surprised since they've delayed PC since GTA3, but its still annoying

Yeah RDR2 was released on PC later even though PS4 and XBO were thr same architecture so I am not hopeful.

it's not necessarily the architecture that's the problem it's just optimizations as you only have set hardware to optimize for on console as compared to pc

In the past first party exclusives were the incentive for me to get a console regardless of Rockstar titles, and they just don't have the draw they used to with them getting ported to the PC so I'm passing on console this Gen. So can't even double dip like they want me too because I wouldn't drop hundreds to play one game.
