Fans of the highly anticipated game, GTA 6, may be disappointed to hear that it may not run at 60 frames per second (fps) on the new PS5 Pro console. Sony recently announced the release date for the upgraded console, set for November 7, along with a higher price tag than expected, which sparked criticism on social media.
While Sony has not officially released the technical specifications for the PS5 Pro, experts like Richard Leadbetter from Digital Foundry are confident that GTA 6 will not be able to reach 60fps on the upgraded console. In an interview with IGN, Leadbetter explained that GTA games have always pushed the CPU to its limits, making it challenging to achieve a higher frame rate. He also mentioned that the trailer for GTA 6, released last December, was most likely running on the PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X.
Although the PS5 Pro boasts upgraded technology, such as enhanced graphics and AI-driven upscaling, it may not be enough to achieve 60fps for all games. According to Tom Warren from The Verge, some games will still only reach 30fps on the PS5 Pro, even with its enhancements.
When it comes to the technical specifications of the PS5 Pro, Sony has not released all the details yet. However, rumors suggest that it will have a CPU with 8x Zen 2 Cores at 3.5GHz, an unknown GPU, and 2TB of internal storage. It will also have Wi-Fi 7, expandable storage via an NVMe SSD slot, and an optional 4K UHD Blu-ray drive.
For those unfamiliar with frame rates, below 30fps can result in choppy visuals and unresponsive controls, while above 60fps is generally not noticeable. Some games offer frame rates of 120fps or above, but they are not common. With the impressive visuals of the GTA 6 trailer and the fact that the PlayStation 5 and its CPU will be five years old by the time the game is released, it is unlikely that it will run at 60fps.
GTA 6 is scheduled to be released in autumn 2025, and fans can stay updated by following the game's social media accounts or signing up for newsletters. While some may be disappointed that it may not run at 60fps, the game is still highly anticipated, and many are eagerly awaiting its release.
