L.A. Noire Takes its Rightful Place on PC This Fall

L.A. Noire

Much like Rockstar's previous release, Red Dead Redemption, L.A. Noire was available only on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 at launch. Noire was a stranger decision as it is, unlike Red Dead, essentially an adventure game, a genre that has its roots on PC. Luckily Rockstar will be bringing to the game to PC later this year, complete with a few additions.

The port is in the hands of Rockstar Leeds and is being "built to run on a wide range of PCs." Those who have higher-end PCs will get to enjoy enhanced graphics and, for anyone with the necessary hardware, 3D support. There's no word on if any of the game's downloadable content will be included.

It's not the first time PC gamers have been forced to wait for a Rockstar game. Grand Theft Auto IV on PC trailed behind the console versions by more than eight months. There was also a long wait for both expansion packs, although the PS3 version had to deal with that as well thanks to Microsoft's exclusivity deal with Rockstar. Meanwhile, neither Red Dead game has seen release on PC; Redemption is particularly surprising given how well it sold on consoles.
