Grand Theft Auto VI launches next week on Thursday, November 19, and you can preload the game on your PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X/S starting today, Rockstar Games has announced. The studio has also revealed what kind of visuals players can expect on their respective consoles, making clear that regardless of where you play, GTA VI targets 30 FPS gameplay.
“Grand Theft Auto VI has been fully developed from the ground up to provide the best possible experience for the current generation of consoles, targeting 30 frames per second while pushing both platforms to their absolute limits to bring the vast and rich world of Leonida to life – while maintaining the density and visual fidelity of all its environments and inhabitants,” Rockstar writes in a blog post.
Rockstar Games also breaks down the different graphical settings available on PlayStation and Xbox consoles. On PS5 Pro, GTA VI will feature “improved clarity through PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) and ray-traced shadows only available on PlayStation 5 Pro.” On PS5 and PS5 Pro, the game will include “high-fidelity haptic feedback” fully integrated into DualSense controllers and adjustable via accessibility settings, improved spatial rendering so all in-game sounds take full advantage of Tempest 3D audio, and improved load times, “making Grand Theft Auto VI play best on PlayStation 5 consoles.”
On Xbox consoles, Rockstar doesn’t dive into performance; instead, it focuses on Xbox Cloud Gaming on Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One consoles, noting this feature will use Xbox Series S graphics settings.
GTA VI will also fully support Remote Play on PlayStation and Xbox.
