Rockstar says GTA 6 runs at 30 FPS, while it's reportedly unsure about a 60 FPS performance mode

Rockstar says GTA 6 runs at 30 FPS, while it's reportedly unsure about a 60 FPS performance mode

Rockstar North co-studio head Rob Nelson revealed that Grand Theft Auto 6 (GTA 6) runs at 30 frames per second (FPS) on both PlayStation 5 (PS5) and Xbox Series X/S platforms. However, there is uncertainty regarding the introduction of a 60 FPS performance mode, which is typically offered as a "Performance" mode in other games. Nelson stated that the technical team needs to be consulted to determine if a 60 FPS option will be available at launch or in the future.

He also mentioned that information about resolution and other technical qualities, such as Ray Tracing, is yet to be disclosed. The game is visually stunning but demands high-end hardware, which is consistent with the series' tradition. The PS5 Pro owners remain unclear about the potential performance gains they might get.
