What happened
According to GamesRadar+, Xbox chief strategy officer Matthew Ball has clarified that GTA 6 will not be playable on PC via Xbox Cloud Gaming, and Microsoft does not have exclusive streaming rights for the game. This statement comes after earlier reports suggested that Xbox might have exclusive streaming rights for GTA 6, which would have allowed PC and mobile players to play the game via Xbox Cloud Gaming. However, Ball's statement on Twitter debunked these reports, stating that while GTA 6 will be available on Xbox on November 19, it will not be streaming exclusively or to PC.
Why it matters for GTA 6 players
The clarification on GTA 6's streaming availability may impact player expectations and plans for playing the game on different platforms. The exclusion of PC streaming also raises questions about Rockstar Games' strategy for releasing the game on PC and other platforms.
What remains unclear
The availability of GTA 6 on PC and other streaming platforms, such as Amazon Luna or Nvidia GeForce Now, remains unclear. Additionally, the reasons behind Rockstar Games' decision to exclude PC streaming for GTA 6 are not explicitly stated.
