Xbox won’t have GTA VI streaming exclusivity after all

PC players will need to wait

Recently, The Verge reported that Xbox will have Grand Theft Auto VI exclusive streaming rights and will allow for Xbox Cloud Gaming at launch, meaning you can stream the new title from your Xbox to your PC. This excited many, as Grand Theft Auto VI isn’t coming to PC at launch, but Cloud Gaming would allow PC players to access the title as well.

However, Xbox chief strategy officer Matthew Ball revealed that this isn’t the case. Ball said that the company is “looking forward to launching GTAVI on Xbox November 19, though the game will not be streaming exclusively or to PC.”

This comes after Xbox has said it will make changes ot streaming. Microsoft is limiting game streaming to 15 hours for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers, 10 hours for Premium subscribers, and five hours for Game Pass Essential. It is even looking to open a pay-as-you-go model next month.

GTA VI is expected to be the most exciting launch title of the year, if not the decade. However, PC players will have to wait until cloud gaming is available, or until a PC release, before they can play. GTA V took about a year and a half before coming out on PC. Hopefully, PC players won’t need to wait as long this time around.
