- Corsair’s CEO speculated an early 2026 PC release for GTA 6
- Fans mistook it as insider info, fueling massive excitement
- Corsair clarified it was just a personal guess, not official

The Crosair’s CEO comment regarding GTA 6 release in early 2026 on PC gave fans a hope and made them excited. However, Crosair has now clarified that it was just a speculation. The GTA 6 fans have already been tired of waiting and any news or leak brings hope but at the end they get disappointed.
Hype vs. Reality: The Speculation Spiral
Recently, Corsair Gaming’s Vice President of Finance, Ronald van Veen, made a comment that thrilled fans, but at the same time, they were a bit confused about the PC release as the Rockstar usually takes time.
Ronald said, “Yeah, GTA 6 is probably the one everyone is talking about. And we’ll get a glimpse of that, I think, later on in the year for console. My understanding now is it’s going to come out in the fall for console, and then early 2026 for PC.”
As the comment came from an official source fans started assuming that this might be true, also the Rockstar has shared the plan about including UGI in upcoming title, and such content goes well on PC.
So they also started linking this aspect with Ronald’s comment and began to believe that he might have some insider info and game might actually launch in early 2026.
But now, Corsair has stepped forward to set the things right as this comment got instantly highlighted and attained massive attention. Headlines began circulating, suggesting that the company had confirmed an early 2026 PC launch.
However, that was not the case. As rumors started to spread like a wild fire Corsair felt it essential to clarify what Van Veen actually meant. A company representative spoke with IGN that it was just Ronald’s personal guess and has nothing to do with official release date (which is yet unknown) or information from the Take-Two Interactive or Rockstar.
Rockstar’s Silence: When Will PC Players Know?
Corsair doesn’t have any insider details, they aren’t aware when the game will arrive on PC. Speaking of Rockstar, right now, it has only been confirmed that the GTA 6 will launch in fall 2025, although fans doubted the officials again confirmed that they are sticking to the timeline they have shared.
The game will first hit the PlayStation and Xbox Series X/S, but the PC launch is still in question. While the GTA community is aware of Rockstar’s strategy of launching games, first on consoles, then on other platforms, many believe that PC gaming has become quite popular in today’s era and delaying its launch won’t be a good idea.
However, developers have their own reasons, such as the fact that the PC version demands more time to work. For now, players have to show more patience and wait for Rockstar to break the silence again and provide some intriguing updates.
For now, fans will have to wait for an official announcement. Anyone looking for updates can check Rockstar’s GTA 6 Discord server, where news is expected to drop in the future.
