  "account": "In late August, Rockstar Games showcased Grand Theft Auto VI for the first time, but only on PlayStation 5, leaving Xbox owners in the dark. While this isn't unusual for trailers, it's a bit concerning since the game won't be available on PC at launch. However, the concern is amplified for Xbox Series S owners, who represent the best value in the current-gen console market. Switch 2 owners might argue they have the superior choice, but GTA VI isn't coming to that platform, so it's not a viable alternative. The question on everyone's mind is how GTA VI will look and run on the Xbox Series S. Unfortunately, there's no information from Rockstar about this version yet, and it hasn't been publicly showcased. Based on the PS5 trailer, we can make some educated assumptions. If GTA VI is running at 30 frames per second on the PS5, it's likely to maintain the same frame rate on the Series S. However, there might be performance hiccups during intense scenes. The resolution could also be reduced on the Series S. Digital Foundry, a reputable video game tech expert, reported that the PS5 trailer was running at a native 1440p. It's highly probable that GTA VI will not achieve the same resolution on Series S. Nonetheless, these are all hypotheses, as Rockstar has not provided any further details. Only time will tell when we'll get more information.",
