GTA 6 reportedly won't hit 60fps on any PS5 hardware

GTA 6 is not expected to run at 60fps on any PlayStation 5 console — including the PS5 Pro — according to current reporting. That means players on Sony's current-gen hardware are likely looking at a 30fps experience when the game launches.

The source article doesn't provide specific technical details about target resolutions or confirmed performance modes, so the exact tradeoffs Rockstar is making remain unclear. What is clear is that the expectation of a 60fps option — which many PS5 owners assumed would at least be available on PS5 Pro — appears to be off the table for now.

This is a notable point of friction given that the PS5 Pro was marketed heavily on its performance credentials, with Sony positioning it as the console for higher frame rates and improved visual fidelity. GTA 6 is one of the most anticipated releases in years, and Rockstar has historically pushed hardware to its limits — GTA 5 launched on PS3 and Xbox 360 before being remastered for successive console generations. The studio has said very little publicly about GTA 6's technical targets.

Expectations around 60fps have become a baseline demand from console players this generation, so the news is likely to generate significant pushback from the community. Whether Rockstar plans a post-launch performance patch or a future PC version that hits higher frame rates remains to be seen.
