It has been claimed that GTA 6 may underperform on Xbox Series X and PS5. This performance issue may even occur on PS5 Pro.
Recent leaks on social media suggest that GTA 6 may not deliver the expected performance on Xbox Series X and PS5 Pro consoles.
GTA 6 Performance May Also Drop on PS5 Pro Consoles
GTA 6 was announced to be released in the fall of 2025 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S consoles. However, according to technology experts at Digital Foundry, GTA 6 allegedly runs at 720p resolution on Xbox Series X and this performance has been tested on various consoles. “The first official trailer of GTA 6 is a reflection of the fps target for the two consoles PlayStation 5 and Xbox X,” say experts.
The GTA series has a large fan base, and those fans have been voicing their concerns about the game’s performance on social media. Xbox Series X/S users in particular are struggling to understand why the powerful console would have trouble running GTA 6 at 1080p. Fans are unhappy with the company’s decision to release the game on the Xbox Series X, and are demanding a better solution.
These performance issues, which have been a hot topic on social media, also extend to the PS5 Pro consoles. New theories suggest that GTA 6 won’t run at 60 FPS on the PS5 and Xbox Series X consoles, and may not even run at 60 FPS on the PS5 Pro. The main reason behind this assumption is the fact that the PS5 Pro’s CPU won’t be a major upgrade over the PS5. “GTA 6 is a technically demanding game, and running it at 60 FPS on both consoles is a huge challenge,” experts say.

According to a post by ‘RedGamingTech’ on ‘X’, “The CPU could be a major issue with the PS5 Pro Console.” RedGamingTech also noted that the PS5 is designed to make good use of ray tracing, and for gamers who prioritize graphics over performance, the PS5 Pro could be a good option. However, for gamers who prioritize performance, the PS5 Pro could be a disappointment.
So now we know that the PS5 Pro’s CPU clocks, basically if GTA6 cannot hit 60 on the ‘base’ console due to CPU bottleneck, it ain’t happening on the Pro.
