Will GTA 6 run at 60fps on PS5 Pro? Not at launch, as things stand. Rockstar has confirmed that GTA 6 is currently targeting 30fps on every console, PS5 Pro included, and it has not promised a 60fps performance mode.
That is a reversal of the leak this article originally covered. In July 2025, a leaker claimed Sony was helping Rockstar hit 60fps on PS5 Pro while Xbox Series X|S players would be stuck at 30. The platforms have not been split that way: all of them share the same 30fps target.
What Rockstar has said about GTA 6 frame rate
In August 2026, co-director Rob Nelson confirmed that GTA 6 is targeting 30fps on all consoles. He left the door open, saying he would need to check with the technical team on whether a 60fps option will arrive at launch or later.
The Extended Look that premiered on Netflix on August 27 was also captured on a base PS5 and ran at 30fps.
Why the PS5 Pro is not the answer
The PS5 Pro’s upgrade is mostly in its GPU: better graphics hardware, better ray tracing and PSSR upscaling. Its CPU is essentially the same as the standard PS5’s. In an open world as busy as Leonida, with dense traffic, crowds and physics, the CPU is what limits frame rate, so extra GPU power is more likely to show up as a sharper image than as double the frames.
GTA 6 is listed as PS5 Pro Enhanced, so Pro owners should expect some improvement, but Rockstar has not said what it is.
PS5 vs PS5 Pro vs Xbox: what we know
| Console | Current frame-rate target | 60fps mode |
|---|---|---|
| PS5 | 30fps | Not confirmed |
| PS5 Pro | 30fps (Pro Enhanced) | Not confirmed |
| Xbox Series X | 30fps | Not confirmed |
| Xbox Series S | 30fps | Not confirmed |
Could a performance mode still happen?
Possibly. Tech analysts have suggested a 40fps mode for 120Hz TVs as a realistic middle ground, and a performance mode could also come in a patch after launch. A leaked list of quality and performance modes has circulated, but Rockstar has not backed it up. Until it does, buy GTA 6 expecting 30fps on every console.
PC players will have to wait: there is still no PC version announced. Console launch is November 19, 2026. See our GTA 6 release date guide for pre-load timing, editions and prices.
