The release shift is caused by some extra weeks of testing and polishing to make the game as good as it can be. Rockstar Games says that moving a release date is never a decision they take lightly. And it is a choice they make only when they know it is in the best interests of the game and the fans. Rockstar Games will assure that these few extra weeks will be worth it when the game arrives in March: GTA V for PC pushes Los Santos and Blaine County to even greater levels of detail, running at 1080p and 60fps with up to 4K resolution and support for up to triple monitor configurations, as well as NVidia 3D Vision for up to triple monitor setups. GTA V for PC also includes the new Rockstar Editor, which gives players a full suite of editing tools to create and publish gameplay clips direct to both Social Club and YouTube.

GTA Online for PC, which will support up to 30 players, will launch alongside GTAV for PC and will include GTA Online Heists.  Online Heists for consoles will be launching in the coming weeks ahead of the PC launch.
