Despite GTA 6 dominating headlines, GTA 5 remains a powerhouse on Steam. January 2025 saw an average of over 129,000 concurrent players, marking one of its most successful months in years.

Why Is GTA 5 Still So Popular?

With no exact GTA 6 release date confirmed beyond fall 2025, frustrated fans are returning to GTA 5.

Its open-world gameplay, modding community, and GTA Online’s ongoing updates keep players engaged.

GTA 6 Performance Concerns

Some fans worry that GTA 6’s massive environments might lead to choppy 30fps gameplay on consoles.

Rockstar’s history suggests a delayed PC release, meaning high-end hardware may be required for optimal performance.

No Rush for Rockstar

With GTA 5 still thriving, Rockstar has no pressure to rush GTA 6. Until more details emerge, expect GTA 5 to dominate Steam charts for months to come.
