Online heists are on the way
Sorry, virtual criminals: GTA 5's PC version has been delayed by just under two months. Rockstar announced today that its heavyweight open-world title will release March 24, 2015 on PC.
It was originally slated to arrive on January 27 - about two months after it hit PS4 and Xbox One. Rockstar says the PC version needs "a few extra weeks of testing and polish" to make sure it's good and ready for release, running at 4K resolution and 60 frames per second if your PC can hack it - speaking of which, be sure to click on for more screens of Los Santos and Blaine County looking better than ever.
At least the delay means you'll be able to play GTA Online heists from launch. The long-awaited multi-part missions are set to launch in GTA Online "in the coming weeks" across all current platforms. Five separate 'story strands' will be available for four-player teams of rank 12 or higher, composing 20 missions overall.
