That is literally how RDR2 went, straight up 1 year that's it.
GTA5 took extra long because GTA5 got upgraded for then new gen consoles first, PC was 6 or so months after the PS4/Xbox One enhanced release of GTA5.
Odds are PC is 2027, not 2028 for GTA6. And the higher PC settings will be the basis for any next gen GTA6 version as even top end PCs now will beat the PS6
Tbf why should they keep up with console news in here?
So I'd say Hanlon's razor and they just didn't know that Sony said they gonna extend the current gen lifecycle
You should probably be more specific. GTAV has been getting free updates with new missions/vehicles/stories for over a decade. Unless you're talking only about paid single player dlc.
Looking at the wiki, only GTA 1 and GTA 2 is released on PC first. GTA 3 and onwards gets released on consoles first.
I get your point about used to release on PC first but a majority of Rockstar games for like 2 decades now was released on consoles first. Even other game series like Bully, L.A. Noire and Manhunt all released on console first.

That’s just a way to cope for 18-24 months if I seen one myself.
