If you\u2019ve pre-loaded <em>Grand Theft Auto V<\/em>, you\u2019ll be ready to play it by dinner time if you live in the United States. If you\u2019ve already downloaded all 65 gigabytes, then all you have to do is wait. If you haven\u2019t, get started now.<\/p>\n<p>Game unlock times are often a point of misery for gamers. Game unlocks have frequently been linked to midnight in a particular timezone \u2013 usually Pacific. Where players in California would be playing a game right at midnight alongside those who\u2019d attended a midnight launch, those in New York would be stuck waiting until 3 A.M. Eastern time for the game to unlock.<\/p>\n<p>If you had a late night of gaming planned for release day, buying a hard copy had a tangible benefit. That\u2019s starting to fade away, and it\u2019s good to see games like <em>Grand Theft Auto<\/em> getting a universal unlock time and, better yet, one that serves a huge portion of their customers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Get your bodies (and gaming PCs) ready: Rockstar Games has announced the unlock time for the PC version of Grand Theft Auto V.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":1703,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[12],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1741","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-gaming","et-has-post-format-content","et_post_format-et-post-format-standard"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kmtech.blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1741","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kmtech.blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kmtech.blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kmtech.blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kmtech.blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1741"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kmtech.blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1741\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kmtech.blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/1703"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kmtech.blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1741"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kmtech.blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1741"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kmtech.blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1741"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
