Before its November 19 launch, Rockstar Games\u2019 Grand Theft Auto 6 has turned into one of the PlayStation 5\u2019s biggest marquee releases. Sony is promoting it hard, with branded accessories and a steady stream of marketing, and the hype is obvious online too, where reports say some fans are planning to take time off work and PlayStation 5 Pro restocks are selling out fast.<\/p>\n

Sony is tying Grand Theft Auto 6 closely to PlayStation 5 through PlayStation Blog posts, State of Play promotion, and new DualSense support that includes haptic feedback<\/strong>, adaptive triggers, controller speaker effects, Tempest 3D AudioTech, and fast SSD loading, at least according to Sony. What Rockstar Games hasn\u2019t confirmed is whether Grand Theft Auto 6 will actually run better on PlayStation 5 than it does on Xbox Series X|S, whether that means frame rates, image quality, or overall performance.<\/p>\n\n

Rockstar North co-studio head Rob Nelson has said Grand Theft Auto 6 is currently targeting 30 FPS<\/a><\/strong> on consoles at launch, with its huge world, visual fidelity, dense crowds, and complex physics pushing current hardware hard enough that 60 FPS is still a big ask. There\u2019s also still no official platform-by-platform breakdown covering resolution, loading times, graphics modes, or the trade-offs on Xbox Series S, and Rockstar Games still hasn\u2019t announced a 60 FPS mode for PlayStation 5 Pro, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, or Xbox Series S.<\/p>\n\n

If you\u2019re picking a console for Grand Theft Auto 6, you\u2019re probably better off waiting for Rockstar Games\u2019 final specs than relying on Sony\u2019s marketing push. Grand Theft Auto 6 arrives on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S on November 19<\/strong>, alongside black and white limited-edition DualSense controllers priced at $84.99.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
