Senior IR director of Nvidia Chris Evenden may have revealed that a PC version of GTA V is in the works in an earnings call last week.
When speaking about the “disparity” between different classes of computers and tablets, Evenden noted a few upcoming PC titles that “gamers are preparing their systems for.”
“The PC market is evolving. As entry level laptops face pressure from tablets. Yet sales of specialty PCs like gaming systems and work stations continue to grow. The disparity reflects how consumers use these different classes of PCs. Many consumers look for PC as a general purpose device they can use for browsing, email, social media video. But much of this can be better served by a tablet. In contrast, gamers are preparing their systems for a strong roster of games coming this fall, including blockbuster franchises, such as Call of Duty: Ghosts, Grand Theft Auto V and Assassin’s Creed IV.”
While it isn’t perfectly clear what Evenden was referring to when he said “their systems,” the speech surrounding it hints towards him talking about PCs.
GTA V will be available on Xbox 360 and PS3 September 17.
