GTAV PC petition nets 200,000 signatures

The Change.org petition calling on Rockstar Games to release a PC version of Grand Theft Auto V has surpassed 200,000 signatures. At press time, 207,971 have signed the online document.

This figure is up from 150,000 in February and 100,000 at the end of November.

According to Rockstar Games cofounder Dan Houser, a PC version of the open-world game is "up for consideration," though that's all the company has said on the matter.

The petition says it is a "big shame" that GTAV is not announced for the PC, specifically calling out the modding community being a "huge part" of PC gaming. "Modded GTA is some of the most insanely fun times you can have," a line from the petition reads.

A since-removed Rockstar Leeds job advertisement sought a programmer to help bring the company's "latest titles" to PC. This would potentially include GTAV.

The PC iteration of Grand Theft Auto IV launched about eight months after the console versions shipped in April 2008.
