First, the big news: Grand Theft Auto V will arrive on PC on 27 January, 2015. This is a few months after the upcoming PS4 and Xbox One editions, both of which will appear this year, on 18 November.

As you may already know, GTA V is coming to PC as it already was announced, but now we have a release date!
Unfortunately the PC release will be the last on the list because the "next gen" version will be out first, which is scheduled for the 18th of November 2014 and the PC release is unfortunately coming only next year, on the 27th of January 2015.

The new version will come with new additional features, which are:

New weapons, vehicles and activities
Additional wildlife
Denser traffic
New foliage system
Enhanced damage and weather effects, and much more
New radio selections, with over 100 extra songs planned
Increased Multiplayer count in GTA Online

Here's a trailers as well!

UPDATE

All existing gameplay upgrades and Rockstar-created content released since the launch of Grand Theft Auto Online will also be available for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC with much more to come.

Existing players will be able to transfer their Grand Theft Auto Online characters and progression to their choice of PlayStation 4, Xbox One or PC.

Maybe not many of you guys are excited for this, but I myself really am, because I waited for the PC version all this time, because I didn't wanted to buy a console just for one game! Maybe in the future I will, who knows...
Now only if RDR would be released too on the PC like it was rumored back in May it would be just fantastic....so yeah... a man can dream... :rofl2:

Putting everything aside, what do you guys think about the news? Angry for the delay or don't mind it?
I myself don't really mind it, because they'll have time to polish it more for us PC users, that if they do polish it of course!

May the mods, hacks, and pirating commence

I for one am glad to hear that the PC wasn't forgotten by this title. Can't wait to see all it's hi-def glory

Great! Hope the GTA V come better optimized than GTA IV, My PC it's almost a PS3 in terms of power, so I'm not sure if mine can run it! , and fuck Take-two Interactive for not bringing GTA V in Wii U, now with my powerless PC I have lower chances to play GTA V...

Tom Bombadildo · Sep 12, 2014

Neat. Hopefully they don't screw up the PC port like they did with GTA IV.

...yarr and evry' swashbuckr' in the seven seas rejoiced.

Satangel · Sep 12, 2014

Finallyyyyyyyyyy. Already waited for 2,5 years, a couple of months extra won't make it.
Hopefully not an abomination like GTA IV (especially DRM side, so annoying)

Yeah, let's hope they won't make any stupid GFWL stuff again. -_- Hate that stuff!
Steamworks would be neat just like they did with Max Payne 3 and L.A. Noire.
Finally let's pray for no Social Club Multiplayer Only, which maybe won't ever happen, but let's just hope, the tiniest bit...

Jiehfeng · Sep 12, 2014

Can't wait! I don't care if I have to wait till January, it's gonna be great. Unless it's gonna be like GTA IV's optimization...

Is it called Grand Theft Auto because PC users will have to spend a grand to run this thing?

No info about this yet, unfortunately.

Any reason for the PC delay? I mean the XBone and PS4 use pretty much identical architecture (with a few differences). I can't imagine that there's 2 months worth of issues still in PC (over holiday season when I imagine everyone's wanting time off) especially when there are leaked logs showing PC version being developed back with the 360 and PS3 versions.

This annoys me. It won't make me buy a PS4 and GTAV it just means that if I want to play GTAV online with my friends I have to make do with paying Microsoft for the privilege on my 360 -_-

No kidding, I'm all for pirates having trouble but when legitimate users are screwed over, it's really depressing.

Ulieq · Sep 12, 2014

Yay, coming to ps4

I'd assume setting up the online infrastructure stuff for the GTA online part of the game. Also a rush for console versions to release before the holidays, in order to maximize sales--I'm sure the PC version would have a smaller profit margin during this time than the console peasantry, making it more acceptable to put off for bit longer.

I'm still surprised by how many people didn't know about the update log that was on-disc. PC was mentioned forever on there.

Where them heists at?

If the PC version had the heists it'd make it automatically the best release of GTA V.
