Rockstar confirms GTA 6 will run at 30 FPS, 60 FPS option still undecided

Rockstar North co-studio head Rob Nelson told Portuguese outlet Flow Games that Grand Theft Auto VI will run at 30 frames per second on current-generation consoles. > "According to the director, it is still necessary to consult the technical team to determine if there will be a 60 FPS option at launch (or in the future)," the report said. He added that details on resolution, ray tracing and other technical specifications have not been disclosed.

The comment came after the extended look trailer, captured on a base PlayStation 5, showed noticeable frame-rate dips, prompting questions about performance on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S and the upcoming PlayStation 5 Pro. Rockstar has not commented on how the less powerful Xbox Series S will handle the game.

Industry observers note that offering selectable performance and quality modes has become common, citing recent examples where developers added a 60 fps option after fan feedback. The trailer also revealed new gameplay systems and a larger game world, but no official statements on resolution or ray-tracing support have been released.
