Thanks to a series of delays, Grand Theft Auto 5 isn't technically supposed to release on PC until April 14; but, thanks to a little thing called science and time zones those of us in the United States will be able to play it early.
Rockstar tweeted the digital version's launch times today, revealing that GTA 5 will go live on PC next Tuesday, April 14th at 12:00am BST. In the United States, that's Monday, April 13th at 7:00pm ET (4:00pm PT).
GTAV for PC will go live on April 14 at 12:00 AM BST (In the US, this is Monday, April 13, at 7:00 PM ET, 4:00 PM PT).

Sure, it's just a few hours difference but for fans that have been waiting for months to play Rockstar's blockbuster title, it can't come soon enough.
If you bought GTA 5 digitally and haven't done so already, you can pre-load the game onto your PC. Pre-loading the game will let you play it the moment it unlocks and goes live, barring any server issues. The download is around 60 GB so make sure you have time, a good internet connection, and enough space for the download.
If you didn't buy the digital version and are awaiting your physical copy… You can have fun with your seven discs.
