    Is GTA 6 30 or 60 FPS? Frame Rate on PS5, PS5 Pro and Xbox

    Last updated:

    The short answer

    GTA 6 targets 30 frames per second on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, Rockstar confirmed on November 10, 2026. PS5 Pro adds a sharper PSSR image and ray-traced shadows, not a higher frame rate. No 60fps mode or resolution has been announced; Digital Foundry measured An Extended Look at around 1440p on a base PS5.

    Background and full explanationFurther context and details

    Is GTA 6 30fps or 60fps?

    30fps. Rockstar’s November 10, 2026 post Pre-Load Grand Theft Auto VI Now says the game was built for the current generation of consoles, “targeting 30 frames per second” while pushing both platforms to their limits to keep Leonida’s density and visual detail. That covers PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.

    The post does not mention a 60fps or performance mode. It matches what earlier footage showed: Digital Foundry’s analysis of An Extended Look, “captured entirely from in-game footage on PlayStation 5”, found “a relatively stable and well-paced 30fps output, with only very occasional single frame drops”, and concluded: “That makes a 60fps version extremely unlikely on console hardware.”

    What resolution does GTA 6 run at?

    Also not announced. Digital Foundry estimated the internal resolution of the Extended Look on PS5 at around 1440p, upscaled to a 4K output.

    What had Rockstar’s team said before?

    Before the official post, only second-hand reports existed. Kotaku reported, citing content creators who visited Rockstar North, that head of development Rob Nelson told them the game ran at 30fps on console during development. The November 10 post now confirms that target officially.

    Will PS5 Pro run it at 60fps?

    Rockstar has not said so. The PlayStation game page labels GTA VI PS5 Pro Enhanced, and Sony’s PS5 Pro page notes that “PS5 Pro enhanced features will vary by game.” For this game, Rockstar’s post names two: improved clarity through PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR), and ray-traced shadows “only available on PlayStation 5 Pro”. A higher frame rate is not on that list. More in does GTA 6 need a PS5 Pro.

    What about Xbox Series X and Series S?

    The 30fps target covers both Xbox consoles. The Xbox Store listing says “Optimized for Xbox Series X|S” and gives no frame rate or resolution, and Rockstar has not said how Series X and Series S differ. Its post adds that the game will stream through Xbox Cloud Gaming on Series X|S and Xbox One using Series S graphics settings. The platform list is in GTA 6 platforms.

    And on PC?

    There is no PC version to measure. See GTA 6 PC release.

    Not announced

    • Resolution on any console, and whether there are separate graphics modes.
    • The difference between Series X and Series S when playing locally.
    • Whether a performance mode could come in a later update.
