Is GTA 6 60 fps?

30

frames each second
on every console

Each bar is one picture. The light runs across all 30 once a second.

No. Rockstar says GTA 6 was built for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S and aims for 30 frames per second on both, so it can keep the world packed with people, traffic and detail. No 60 fps or "performance mode" has been announced. We will test it on launch night and update this page.

The tech words, in plain English

Frames per second (fps)

How many pictures the game draws each second. 30 looks smooth to most people. 60 feels smoother, but costs a lot of the console's power.

PSSR

Sony's upscaling on the PS5 Pro. It draws the game at a lower size, then rebuilds it so it looks sharper on a 4K TV.

Ray-traced shadows

Shadows worked out by following how light really travels, so they look softer and more natural.

Cloud gaming

The game runs on a powerful computer far away and streams to your screen like a video. You need good internet.

Remote Play

Your own console runs the game at home and streams it to another screen, like a phone, tablet or PlayStation Portal.

Age rating: ESRB Mature 17+, with in-game purchases.
