GTA V PC Release Date Announced with Systems Specs

Rockstar Games has announced a release date for GTA V on PC and the long wait for home computer gamers will be over on March 24th 2015.

Yes, that’s a little bit later than hoped, but the developer apologetically addressed eager players today with not only the new release date for the latest and largest game in the seventeen year legacy of Grand Theft Auto but also teased even more with some glorious 4K quality screenshots of the game to come.

GTA V PC will support single player missions as well as a massive 30 person multiplayer mode which will launch when the game comes out and the detail of the in game graphics is promised to be the greatest we’ve ever seen running at 1080p with 60 frames per second blistering eyeballs all across Los Santos and Blaine County. The PC version also features Rockstar Editor for editing of our best gameplay moments to watch back and share socially on YouTube in theatrical style most befitting for the movie feel of the GTA experience.
