## Key points

- GTA 6 may launch at 30fps, even on PS5 Pro.
- Rockstar has not confirmed a final frame-rate target.
- Its release is scheduled for 19 November.

## Summary

Reports based on an early Rockstar North gameplay viewing suggest Grand Theft Auto 6 may launch capped at 30 frames per second on PlayStation 5, including the PS5 Pro. Rockstar has not confirmed this target, but the prospect matters because many players expect the more powerful Pro console to provide a 60fps performance option.

Brazilian creator DavyJones said he saw the game running at 30fps and asked Rockstar North co-director Rob Nelson about performance. Nelson did not provide a technical commitment, saying the team would need to clarify, but called 30fps suitable for the scale of activity on screen; the approach would match GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2, which initially ran at 30fps on consoles before later receiving 60fps support on newer platforms. GTA 6 is due for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S on 19 November.
