We're still in the dark with regards to a GTA 6 PC release date, but the neon-filtered pre-order screen for Rockstar's next blockbuster on my PS5 looks too good to be true. I've racked up thousands of hours in GTA Online on PC over the last decade, but in the space between its arrival on desktop in 2015 and its launch on the PlayStation 3 two years prior (a statement that now reads like a typo), I must have clocked hours into the hundreds.
As detailed by PC Gamer's own Rory Norris last month, developer Rockstar insists at this late stage on describing GTA 6 as a "single-player experience"—but there's simply no way an evolution of the game's multiplayer offshoot isn't in the immediate offing, right?
Whatever form that takes, I fully expect to once more use its console iteration as a test bed for my inevitable platform switch when the time comes. But the overarching question at this point is: what guise will GTA Online 2.0 take upon arrival? And, perhaps more to the point, what do we even want that to look like?...
