GTA 6 targets 30 FPS on every console: PS5, PS5 Pro, Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S. Rockstar confirmed it on November 10, 2026. The PS5 Pro does not get a higher frame rate. It gets sharper image quality through PSSR upscaling and ray-traced shadows that no other console has.
GTA 6 FPS by console
| Console | Frame rate target | What Rockstar says it adds |
|---|---|---|
| PlayStation 5 | 30 FPS | DualSense haptics, Tempest 3D Audio, faster load times |
| PlayStation 5 Pro | 30 FPS | Everything on PS5, plus PSSR upscaling and ray-traced shadows |
| Xbox Series X | 30 FPS | Nothing specific listed |
| Xbox Series S | 30 FPS | Nothing specific listed. Its settings are also used for Xbox Cloud Gaming |
| Xbox One (cloud only) | Depends on your connection | Streams the game using Xbox Series S settings |
Rockstar's exact wording is that the game was built for the current generation of consoles, "targeting 30 frames per second while pushing both platforms to their absolute limits".
Is there a 60 FPS or performance mode?
No. Rockstar's announcement does not mention a performance mode, a 60 FPS option or a 40 FPS option, on launch or in a later update. Claims of a 40 FPS mode on PS5 Pro come from datamined files and are not confirmed.
"Targeting 30 FPS" means the game aims for 30. It does not promise the frame rate never drops in busy scenes. How well it holds will only be known once the game is out on November 19, 2026.
GTA 6 FPS on PS5 Pro
The PS5 Pro runs the game at the same 30 FPS target as the standard PS5. What changes is how it looks:
- PSSR (PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution): Sony's upscaling, which Rockstar says gives improved clarity.
- Ray-traced shadows: Rockstar says these are only available on PS5 Pro.
If you are deciding between a PS5 and a PS5 Pro for GTA VI, the Pro gives a sharper image and better shadows, not smoother motion.
GTA 6 on Xbox Series S
The Series S gets the same 30 FPS target as the Series X. Rockstar has not published the resolution for any console, so the Series S resolution is not known yet.
Storage is the bigger problem on the Series S. The game is about 210 GB on Xbox Series X|S, and the 512 GB Series S has roughly 364 GB of usable space. GTA VI alone fills more than half of it. See the preload page for how much space to free up.
Resolution on each console
Rockstar has not announced the resolution for PS5, PS5 Pro, Series X or Series S. Pages that list exact resolutions are estimates. This page will be updated once the game is out and the real numbers are measured.
