It's a pretty solid bet that GTA VI is not coming to PC on release, but what about later? Neither Rockstar nor Take-Two has said anything on the topic. We could infer from history that the game will hit PC a year or more after the console launch, but if that's the case, Strauss Zelnick isn't saying so—but he also...

Let's talk about Grand Theft Auto for a bit. Despite only having five mainline games in the series since the breakout hit Grand Theft Auto III moved millions of PlayStation 2s in 2001, the "GTA" franchise has continued to be one of the most important in all of gaming. If you need evidence for that claim, look no...

Did you know that by subscribing to Netflix you get access to a library of free games? It's right there on your phone in the Netflix mobile app. Apparently very few people take advantage of this, which is kind of a bummer because there's a fair few quality games in there, like Dead Cells, TMNT Shredder's Revenge, and...

Grand Theft Auto is absolutely not a series for children. While the earliest games had a cartoony style and relatively little objectionable content besides the nominative car theft, the games became surprisingly realistic, starting with the fully-3D GTA III on the PlayStation 2. Successive titles over the following...

Remember when Netflix was a DVD-by-mail subscription service? It recently shipped its last DVD after successfully pivoting into a streaming juggernaut, and for its next trick, Netflix has set its sights set on getting into gaming in a big way. Efforts are already underway, though Netflix is apparently wanting to make...

We here at HotHardware are very much like the many people who have spent hundreds of hours playing Grand theft Auto V. We could write entire articles about the good, the bad and the ugly qualities of this legendary game franchise, but one of the biggest and most frequent complaints about the title is with its sense of...

Most of Rockstar Games is probably hard at work on GTA 6 right now, but the part that isn't is still working to keep GTA Online running. Yes, ten years after the original launch of Grand Theft Auto V, GTA Online is still being actively-supported with new content, even if some of Rockstar's changes have been...

Rockstar has said basically nothing about the next Grand Theft Auto game beyond that it's being worked on. Despite that, we know a little bit about the game, partially thanks to the massive leak last year. It's going to be set in and around Vice City, it's going to have multiple playable protagonists like GTA V, and for the first time since

If you're still playing GTA Online, you'd better be extra careful before you pull out that Oppressor MKII and start griefing noobs. It turns out that there's a bug right now that is removing the "insured" flag from player-owned vehicles. Veterans of the sandbox crime simulator will already be grimacing at the idea...

What's the biggest game franchise in the world? If you said "Grand Theft Auto," you're wrong, actually - it's Pokémon. "GTA" is certainly the biggest in some ways, though, like its development budgets. It's been ten years since GTA V originally launched on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360—two full console generations...

The popular Grand Theft Auto franchise has pushed the envelope and had a massive impact on the open-world genre in the last 26 years, since its release. Not only becuase of its edgy, risque content, but visually as well. Of course, it hasn't always been smooth sailing, but most games in the series looked great and...

Just in case you aren't aware dear reader, Grand Theft Auto is kind of a cultural phenomenon. The fifth game, particularly its internet component (known simply as "GTA Online"), is by some measures the most successful video game of all time. Naturally, anticipation for GTA 6 is running high, and any tiny tidbit of...

Rockstar Games is a studio that invokes feelings of enjoyment and feelings of ire, the latter primarily for opponents of the studio's works, often parents. That's thanks to the studio's reputation as the creator and distributor of games that often contain sexuality, violence, and swearing. That has drawn them some...

Rockstar Games can't release Grand Theft Auto VI fast enough, though as we eagerly (and impatiently) await for the next installment in the long-running GTA franchise, fan made trailers have us drooling at what the actual product could look like. The latest one comes from TeaserPlay, which used Unreal Engine 5 to...

Grand Theft Auto V is one of the most profitable entertainment franchises in the history of games. It came along as a return to form after what many fans would argue was a misstep with the more gritty and realistic GTA 4. Originally released back in 2013 for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3—yes, it spans three console...

Besides offering up chaotic open-world action, one thing that Rockstar's games have done ever since Grand Theft Auto III is push the envelope in terms of technology. This is somewhat debatable up to Grand Theft Auto IV, which stunned audiences with its mix of macro-scale simulation and micro-scale detail. GTA V and...

Grand Theft Auto V is notable for all kinds of reasons. It's the most expensive video game ever made, and also one of the very most successful, by any measure. It sold so well that Rockstar kept the online service for the 7th-generation (PS3 and Xbox 360) releases of the game going from release in 2013 until late last...

Did you imagine when Grand Theft Auto V came out for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in 2013, that we'd be seeing a fresh retail re-release of it nine years later? Much like The Elder Scrolls Part V: Skyrim—which hails from the same era—GTA V has been an enduring success and is about to get its third...

It's been around eight and a half years since the last major installment in the Grand Theft Auto series, the longest gap ever in a franchise that spans seven main titles. So when is the next one coming? We can't say for sure, but Rockstar Games has not finally confirmed that there will in fact be a Grand Theft Auto 6...

It took a minute, as well as a handful of leaks and rumors, but Rockstar Games has confirmed plans to release remastered versions of Grand Theft Auto III, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. All three will be packaged up into Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition (try...

In a story that could have been ripped right out of a Grand Theft Auto (GTA) game, brazen car thieves in Yorkshire, England were caught using a device disguised as a...wait for it...Game Boy to steal vehicles. The gadget was used to bypass the car’s security systems and to crank the engine.
The three men stole five...
