- Digital Foundry predicts that GTA 6 will not support 60FPS on console
- The game is suggested to launch at 30 FPS, even on PS5 Pro.
- A 40FPS mode could be on the table for PS5 Pro if there is no 60FPS
grand theft car 6 It may not support 60 FPS on current-gen consoles, including the PlayStation 5 Pro, at launch, meaning 30 FPS will be the baseline.
This is according to tech experts at Digital Foundry, who suggest that after recent information about the game, pre-order screenshots and other images, they are still not convinced that GTA 6 will allow a 60FPS mode.
The main concern is the game’s CPU demand on current-gen consoles, PS5, Xbox Series X and Series S, which will likely be extensive.
“In RPGs, dense urban locations are the most likely to slow down frame rates, and the GTA 6 The world seems another level of magnitude more challenging than countries like Dragon Dogma 2 either Baldur’s Gate 3“said Digital Foundry.
There’s also the question of traversal, whether on land, sea or air, and the vehicles will “require their own computationally expensive physics, the kind that typically forces console simulation games to run at 30 FPS.” For this reason, “60FPS seems like a bridge too far.”
Digital Foundry also suggested that the PS5 Pro would not be able to generate GTA 6 at 60 FPS, because “the console only offers a fractional increase in CPU performance over the base PS5, with most of its advantage coming from better GPU power, improved RT acceleration, and support for PSSR upscaling.”
CPU limitations would mean that GTA 6 will launch at 30 FPS on PS5 Pro; However, it notes that a 40 FPS mode could be possible if 60 FPS is not available.
It is worth noting that GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2 It also launched at 30 FPS on last-gen consoles, but Rockstar subsequently released 60 FPS upgrades for current-gen consoles, including PS5, Xbox Series X, and Series S.
Yeah GTA 6 launches at 30 FPS, a post-launch update to 60 FPS mode could be on the cards.
Rockstar has yet to reveal the finer details, but GTA 6 Pre-orders have officially started.
The game will be released on November 19 and will cost $79.99 / AU$129.95 / £69.99 for the Standard Edition and $99.99 / AU$159.95 / £89.99 for the Ultimate Edition. Pre-orders begin on November 12.
