GTA 6 targets 30 FPS and supports ray tracing on PS5 Pro

Rockstar Games announced that Grand Theft Auto 6 is now available for pre-load on Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5. The game will launch on November 19. The company also officially stated that its performance target is 30 frames per second. In a blog post, it stated that it will push both platforms to their "absolute limits," bringing the vast world of Leonida to life while maintaining environmental density and visual fidelity.

GTA 6 will run at 30 FPS on PS5 Pro

Rockstar's statement made no mention of 40 or 60 FPS support for PS5 Pro. It is not clear whether this feature will be added in the future. However, Sony's high-end console will have several additional features.

The game will support Sony's PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution upscaling technology. For the foreseeable future, this will be the only way to play with ray-traced shadows on PS5 Pro. This is expected to change when the game comes to PC.

Rockstar also stated that it will deliver fully integrated "high-definition haptic feedback" across the game for DualSense controllers and "enhanced spatial audio" to take full advantage of Tempest 3D Audio on PS5. It also noted that loading times have been improved on Sony consoles.

Remote play support will be available for both PlayStation and Xbox. Playing the game via cloud streaming on consoles, including Xbox One, will be possible through Xbox Cloud Gaming. Rockstar stated that cloud streaming will be limited to Xbox Series S graphics settings. Users who do not want to allocate large amounts of storage space on their consoles for GTA 6 can consider this option.

Xbox and PlayStation announced that GTA 6 is the most pre-ordered game ever on their respective digital stores. Xbox CEO Asha Sharma wrote on X that this marks the first step of a new ten-year strategic partnership with Take-Two, Rockstar's parent company. Other Rockstar titles, including Grand Theft Auto 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2, will also be added to Xbox Cloud Gaming in the coming months.
