Everybody's excited about the next Grand Theft Auto game, especially considering all of the rumors surrounding the title.

It may have taken 14 years, but Rockstar Games this week finally announced that the original Red Dead Redemption game (released in 2010) was getting a proper port to the PC platform. And by "proper," we mean it will come several visual upgrades that didn't adorn the PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch ports, such as...

Some gaming franchises are so spectacular that players will wait years for an update of any kind. Rockstar Games holds the key to many such games, and in this case, it is Red Dead Redemption. The popular console title is finally coming over to the PC on October 29th (yes, THIS October 29th), as was recently leaked...

The Rockstar Games Launcher on PC just got another update yesterday, and along with the patch came down yet more evidence of a forthcoming release for the first Red Dead Redemption game on PC.

Believe it or not, it's already been eight months since Rockstar Games delighted gamers with a trailer for Grand Theft Auto VI, which has been viewed well over 204 million times, with 11 million thumbs up votes.

One of the many great effects that Steam has had on the games industry is that it has given players another way to express their displeasure with a game publisher or developer's actions. You see, the effects of "vote with your wallet" aren't that obvious when we're talking about live-service games. A sharp dip in a...

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...

It is absolutely no exaggeration to say that Grand Theft Auto VI is currently the most-anticipated game in the market, and quite possibly the most-anticipated game of all time. Some people have even placed their hopes on Rockstar's next game to revive a sagging console and AAA games industry. Certainly it will be the...

Did you know that Red Dead Redemption is actually the second game in the series? Very few people remember 2004's Red Dead Revolver, released for Xbox and PlayStation 2, but it is the original "Red Dead" game.

Grand Theft Auto 6 is still a year away assuming it doesn’t encounter any delays, but the gaming industry is pinning an absurd amount of hope on it. Less than three months in, 2024 has been a rough year for the games industry, with various studios closing and thousands of layoffs across companies big and small. It’s...

Remember that big Rockstar hack last year? The stuff that made headlines at the time was predictably the material related to GTA VI. Rockstar's next entry in its giga-hit franchise hadn't even been officially confirmed at that time, so the hype was unreal. Well, the hackers got a whole lot more than just GTA VI in...

Regular readers of this site who are gamers are very likely to be primarily PC gamers. That may have muted your enthusiasm for Rockstar's next Grand Theft Auto game, GTA VI, as it has been widely reported to skip the PC, at least at launch. Rockstar hasn't said anything of the sort, but the trailer only mentions the...

If you've been using the internet for the last ten years, you've almost assuredly heard about some absurd exploit or other of "Florida Man". These stories are commonplace not because Floridians are insane, but because of Florida laws requiring the public reporting of criminal offenses. That's not to say that Florida...

Rockstar Games has an absolute monster game on its hands, and it surely knows it.

Rockstar Games wasn't planning to unveil its highly anticipated first trailer for Grand Theft Auto VI, the next major installment in one of the most popular game franchises of all time, until Tuesday, December 5.

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...

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...

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...

Red Dead Redemption, the sequel to Red Dead Revolver on the original Xbox, was a massive hit when it released on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 back in 2010. As a later release for those consoles and the second Rockstar release to use the Rockstar Advanced Game Engine (RAGE), it leveraged the hardware of those systems...
