GTA 6 Targets 30fps: PS5 Pro Gets PSSR, Xbox One Gets Cloud Play

What Rockstar confirmed on November 10

On the day pre-loading opened, Rockstar published Pre-Load Grand Theft Auto VI Now. Besides confirming the pre-load, it is the first time Rockstar has stated how the game runs on each console.

Topic	What the post says
Frame rate	Built for the current generation of consoles, “targeting 30 frames per second”
PS5 Pro	Sharper image through PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR), plus ray-traced shadows “only available on PlayStation 5 Pro”
PS5	DualSense haptic feedback across the whole game, adjustable in accessibility settings; Tempest 3D Audio for all in-game sounds; improved load times
Xbox Cloud Gaming	Available on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One consoles, using Xbox Series S graphics settings
Remote Play	“Fully” supported on PlayStation and Xbox
Pre-load	Open to everyone with a digital pre-order; code-in-box buyers can redeem their code and pre-load once they receive it

30fps is now official

Until now, 30fps came from analysis of An Extended Look and second-hand reports from Rockstar’s studio. The post settles it. Rockstar says the game targets 30 frames per second while pushing both platforms “to their absolute limits” to keep the density and detail of Leonida’s environments and inhabitants.

The post does not mention a 60fps or performance mode, and it gives no resolution for any console. The full answer, with Digital Foundry’s measurements, is in is GTA 6 30 or 60fps.

What the PS5 Pro adds

Two things, according to Rockstar: a clearer image from PSSR, Sony’s upscaler, and ray-traced shadows, which no other console gets. The post does not say that the Pro runs at a higher frame rate. A PS5 Pro is still not required; see does GTA 6 need a PS5 Pro.

Xbox One through the cloud

There is still no Xbox One version to install. Rockstar says GTA VI “will also be available via XBOX Cloud Gaming on XBOX Series X|S and XBOX One consoles”, streaming with Series S graphics settings. It adds that connection speed and other technical factors can affect cloud performance in ways that local play is not affected.

The post does not say which subscription, if any, is needed to stream it, or when cloud play begins. On November 11 the US Xbox Store listing still listed only Xbox Series X|S under “Play with” and showed no cloud capability. For the full platform picture, see GTA 6 platforms and GTA 6 on Xbox.

A new video with Tove Lo

The post comes with a 30-second video, Grand Theft Auto VI: Pre-Load Now, set to “Blood in Your Eyes” by Tove Lo from Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album. It is embedded on this page. Earlier songs from the album are listed in the album announcement, and every official video is in GTA 6 trailers.

Still not announced

• Resolution on any console, and whether a performance mode will ever be added.
• The subscription or purchase terms for Xbox Cloud Gaming, and its start date.
• Any PC version.

Download sizes and unlock times are in the preload and launch times guide.
