FAQ: GTA 6 Will Decide Whether the PS5 Pro Is Worth the Price — and Sony Cannot Afford the Wrong Answer

What are the PS5 Pro's hardware advantages over the base PS5 for GTA 6?

The PS5 Pro has roughly 60 GPU compute units versus 36 on the base PS5, approximately 28% more memory bandwidth, faster ray tracing capabilities, PSSR (PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution) upscaling, and 2 TB of storage — enough for a game Rockstar says requires over 100 GB.

Will GTA 6 run at 60fps on PS5 Pro?

Rockstar has not confirmed any frame rate targets for PS5 Pro. The article argues the PS5 Pro's hardware advantages could deliver 60fps in a performance mode, but this remains unconfirmed. The base PS5 will almost certainly target 30fps in quality mode.

Is the PS5 Pro worth buying specifically for GTA 6?

The analysis suggests that for those who don't already own a base PS5 and are buying new hardware, the PS5 Pro is worth considering if 60fps is important. However, base PS5 owners should wait — the extra $250 is too much for an unconfirmed performance improvement Rockstar has not confirmed.

When will GTA 6 launch on PC?

Rockstar has not announced a PC release date. The PC port is expected to come after the console launch on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, with late 2027 or 2028 being the most common industry speculation.
