PC specs for GTA 5 to be revealed next week

The required specs of the PC version of GTA 5 will be revealed next week, Rockstar has promised.

As part of the same Q&A we covered earlier, Rockstar talked a tiny bit about the upcoming PC version of GTA 5.

Answering a fan question about that version, Rockstar said, “We’re presently in the final stages of development on the PC version of Grand Theft Auto V and hope to have confirmed official system requirements to share soon here at the Newswire.

“Please stay tuned for that to be announced in the coming week. Thank you and we’re very excited to bring GTAV to the PC gaming community!”

GTA 5 arrives January 27 on PC.
