GTA 6 Has Bad News for PS5 Pro Owners

Rockstar Games has officially announced that Grand Theft Auto 6 will maintain a 30 frames per second (FPS) target across all supported consoles, including PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 5 Pro, Xbox Series X and Series S. Despite the PS5 Pro's enhanced hardware, it will not achieve a higher frame rate, but instead, will benefit from improved graphics, including enhanced ray tracing and image upscaling.

Rockstar Games has focused on creating detailed environments and a large open world for the game, rather than targeting a locked frame rate, which could fluctuate during demanding scenes. The PS5 Pro will receive exclusive graphical improvements such as enhanced image clarity through PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) and ray-traced shadows, which adjust the sharpness and softness of shadows based on light sources.

While the Xbox Series S may offer lower graphical quality due to its weaker hardware, GTA 6 will still be accessible on older Xbox consoles through cloud gaming. GTA 6 will also support Remote Play on PlayStation and Xbox devices, with launch confirmed for November 19, 2026.
