Gta 6 Release Date Pressure Builds as Leak Spotlights PC Revenue Gap

By Tyler Brooks Apr 18, 2026

released data stolen from through a third-party service yesterday, putting fresh pressure on the company just as questions about the on PC continue to hang over the next Grand Theft Auto launch. A Rockstar representative described the leaked material as “a limited amount of non-material company information.”

The numbers attached to the alleged files point to a business that is still overwhelmingly driven by consoles. said it had verified that the figures matched the alleged leaked files, though it could not confirm the authenticity of the files with Rockstar. Across September 2025 to April 2026, allegedly made $9,592,109 a week. Of that, $8,245,974 came from consoles. PS5 players paid $4,486,346, while PS4 players accounted for $973,308. Rockstar earned $2,786,320 from Xbox Series X and Xbox One players and just $264,273 from PC.

Those figures matter because Rockstar has not dated GTA 6 for PC, and the company has never been eager to break out platform performance in public. That reluctance lands at a moment when , Rockstar’s parent company chief, said last year that PC ports can account for over 40% of overall sales and that “we have seen PC become a more and more important part of what used to be a console business.” The gap between that broad industry view and Rockstar’s own platform silence is what gives the leak its bite.

It also lands while Rockstar is fighting a legal battle with ousted GTA 6 developers over allegations of union-busting and misconduct, and after the company recently laid off its head of AI among other staffers. The leaked figures do not settle the gta 6 release date question, but they do underline why it remains one of the company’s most closely guarded decisions: the money is clearly there on PC, even if it still trails consoles by a wide margin.

For now, the leak has sharpened the same split that has defined Rockstar’s recent strategy. The publisher can point to a large and steady PC audience, but its own numbers suggest the console business still carries the center of gravity. Until Rockstar puts a date on GTA 6 for PC, that imbalance will keep feeding speculation about when, and how, the game reaches computers.
