GTA 5 came out on PC about 1 year and 7 months after its original console release. The game launched on September 17, 2013 for PS3 and Xbox 360, then arrived on PC on April 14, 2015.

Release gap

  • Original release: September 17, 2013
  • PC release: April 14, 2015
  • Time between them: roughly 19 months

In plain terms

So the wait for the PC version was a little under 2 years. A lot of players remember it as a long gap because Rockstar also delayed the PC launch more than once before it finally shipped.

TL;DR

GTA 5 took about 19 months to come out on PC after the first release.
