Is GTA 6 30 FPS or 60 FPS on PS5 and Xbox?
Short answer
GTA 6 targets 30 frames per second on PS5 and Xbox. That is Rockstar Games' stated target from November 10, 2026, not a measured result. Rockstar has not announced a 60 FPS or performance mode for Grand Theft Auto VI, and has not named a resolution. Real frame rates can only be measured after release on November 19.
Verified
Confirmed: Rockstar's stated target of 30 frames per second on current-generation consoles.
Not confirmed: whether any 60 FPS or performance mode exists, the resolution, and the frame rate the game actually holds.
What Rockstar said
On November 10, 2026, in the Newswire post that announced the start of pre-loading, Rockstar Games wrote that 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”.
Two things about that sentence matter:
- “Targeting” is a goal, not a measurement. It is the frame rate the studio aimed for. Independent frame-rate tests are only possible once the game is out.
- It speaks about “the current generation of consoles” as a group. The post gives one frame-rate figure and does not split it by console.
Is there a 60 FPS mode?
None has been announced. The post does not mention 60 FPS, a performance mode or a choice of graphics modes. We also found no such mode on the PlayStation and Xbox store pages for the game, both read on November 13, 2026.
That is the absence of an announcement. Rockstar has not said that a higher frame-rate mode exists, and it has not said that one will never come.
PS5 Pro and Xbox Series S
- PS5 Pro. Rockstar lists two additions for PS5 Pro, PSSR and ray-traced shadows, and no separate frame-rate figure. See What does GTA 6 add on PS5 Pro?.
- Xbox Series S. The post names no separate target for Series S. It mentions Series S only in the sentence about Xbox Cloud Gaming, where streams are said to use “XBOX Series S graphics settings”.
What is not known
- The resolution on any console.
- Whether the frame rate is locked at 30 or can drop below it in busy scenes.
- Whether a later update will add other modes.
Claims we do not repeat
This page does not repeat claims about other frame-rate modes, or about settings said to be found in the game’s files. We have no statement from Rockstar Games for any of them.
When this answer will change
After release on November 19, 2026, when the in-game settings can be checked and frame-rate measurements are published, or earlier if Rockstar announces more.
