GTA V PC requirements announced
Rockstar has announced requirements for PC gamers for the GTA V. The game, which is already released on Xbox 360, PS3, Xbox One and PS4, is set to launch on PC on March 24th, 2015.
According to the game developers, the reason why the PC release date is being delayed is that they are still working on making the game more bug free and performance efficient so that I can run smoothly without needing an extra ordinary PC configuration. The developers of the game also said that they don’t want to ruin the end user experience by degrading some of the graphics and instead work on the game code and other things to make it run on law specification systems without any lag.
About the requirements, Rockstar has outlined both minimum and recommended specifications for GTA V which are listed below
