Will there be an option to toggle the resolution down in exchange for a higher framerate? According to Rockstar Games, not at launch.<\/p>\n<p>Head of development Rob Nelson reportedly told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Q3UCebTDBy8\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">YouTuber Davy Jones<\/a>, one of the content creators who recently visited Rockstar North to get a closer look at the game, that GTA 6 is currently only running at 30fps on console during development. <a href=\"https:\/\/flowgames.gg\/exclusivo-vimos-gta-6-de-perto-salto-maior-ja-visto\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Flow Games reports<\/a> that the performance range could change in the future, including after launch, and Nelson said he couldn\u2019t commit to any other specifics on resolution yet.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s the full excerpt from Flow Games, machine-translated from the Portuguese:<\/p>\n<p>According to Rob Nelson, Lead Developer and Co-director at Rockstar North, during this development period, the consoles are running the game at 30 frames per second.<\/p>\n<p>According to the director, it is still necessary to consult the technical team to determine if there will be a 60 FPS option at launch (or in the future). He also emphasizes that he does not currently have details on resolution and other technical qualities, such as the use of Ray Tracing, but the performance, for now, is 30 FPS.<\/p>\n<p>GTA 6\u00a0only having a 30FPS mode at launch would be in keeping with Rockstar\u2019s past open-world games. GTA 5 didn\u2019t get the 60FPS option until the next-gen upgrade for PS5 and Xbox Series X\/S. Red Dead Redemption 2 still doesn\u2019t have an official 60FPS upgrade for modern consoles.<\/p>\n<p>We also don\u2019t have any sense of whether GTA 6 might have more options on the PS5 Pro. Even if 60FPS remains out of the question, maybe owners of Sony\u2019s premium $900 hardware can squeak out 40FPS mode for 120hz TVs? If not, there\u2019s always the PS6 and Xbox Project Helix coming in just a couple of years.<\/p>\n<p>A 30FPS cap wouldn\u2019t <a href=\"https:\/\/kotaku.com\/the-3-big-reasons-why-gta-6-isnt-coming-to-pc-at-launch-and-why-thats-a-good-thing-2000717074\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">apply to a PC version of GTA 6<\/a>, but that port, still unannounced, isn\u2019t coming until later down the road. PC owners had to wait nearly 18 months for GTA 5 to hit Steam. Hopefully, the port arrives quicker this time around.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Today\u2019s Grand Theft Auto 6 deep dive looked incredible, showing off gameplay captured on a base PlayStation 5.&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":828115,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[31],"tags":[350771,266486,29611,74],"class_list":["post-828114","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-framerate","tag-grand-theft-auto-vi","tag-rockstar-games","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/828114","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=828114"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/828114\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/828115"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=828114"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=828114"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=828114"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
