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 know when the PS5/Xbox Series X/S came out they were referred to as "next generation" while the previous consoles were "current generation" when talking about games that were released on both consoles, for example NBA 2K.

I can see why you're confused and I agree that enough time has passed that we can start calling the PS5/ Xbox series X/S current generation.

I think that calling them next gen was okay up to the point that they became readily available.
