'GTA 6' on PS5 vs Xbox: Key differences to consider
Key Points:
- Grand Theft Auto VI launches on November 19 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series consoles, with no confirmed PC version release date yet.
- Pre-orders indicate a strong preference for the PS5 version, with IGN reporting an eight-to-one sales ratio favoring PlayStation, though Microsoft has disputed these figures.
- Sony claims GTA VI "plays best on PS5," highlighting a close partnership with Rockstar Games and the use of PS5’s immersive features, but specific technical advantages remain undisclosed.
- Digital Foundry praises GTA VI's graphics as a real-time rendering milestone, and performance differences between PS5 and Xbox Series X are expected to be minimal; however, the game will likely run at 30 FPS without a 60 FPS mode.
- The Xbox Series S version is expected to have downgraded resolution and settings due to hardware limitations, but details are currently unknown and more technical information is anticipated before launch.
