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.

GTA trilogy wasn't developed by rockstar iirc. That being said, pre-ordering games is a dumb move anyway since games aren't finished when they are being released nowadays

And it's almost like they cant run out of binary code + a license key to distribute.
And the preload period is stupid anyway since you will most likely need a day 1 patch anyway.
