Speaking on Kiwi Talkz, Mike York sets his expectations after being asked if Rockstar will shoot for 30fps or 60fps for GTA6. "I don't know if they'll be able to pull off 60fps," York says. "I don't think so. I think they're gonna be shooting for 30fps – and a locked 30fps, meaning it never dips below that. They're gonna try to optimize as much as they can to where it never goes below 30. But it can be bumped up to 40, 41, 52, whatever, and I bet you, like, later, once it's on PC, it'll probably get super optimized and changed and new graphics cards that come out and you'll be able to run it at 60fps probably at that time."

"I don't think [the] initial release it'll come out at 60fps unless it's getting those 60fps by [using] an AI upscaler thing like the PlayStation is doing, unless something is coming in and helping it get those 60fps," York explains. "I don't think it'll get the 60fps raw out the gate on a base console. PS5, for instance. Maybe PS5 Pro, or whatever, but I still don't think so."

"I don't know what they're doing over there," York says. "I don't know how massive this is going to be. But from my experience, they're going to squeeze every little freaking thing they can out of it and then optimize later for 60 frames because it's not as important as just making the game amazing at 30 frames."

GTA 6 will run at 30fps on console, former GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2 animator expects, and your best shot at 60fps may be hoping for PC

Just be grateful the game is finally coming out

So the article is about a guy that doesn't know shit. Amazing.

 

[Cakeboxer]

No thanks, not playing anything where i drive cars and flight stuff with 30fps. It's fucking 2025.

 

[Mister Wolf]

We all expected this. Game will likely be CPU heavy and RTGI is already confirmed.

 

[Giallo Corsa]

lol, LMAO even at those that were expecting it to run at 60fps

Wait till the PS6 and next Xbox for the "remaster"/next-gen edition

 

[ZehDon]

There are few games released today were strictly 30FPS on consoles is justified. However, with their work on GTAV for the PS360 generation, and Red Dead Redemption 2 on the Xbone/PS4 generation, Rockstar have proven time and again that they really do put out games were 30FPS makes sense for how hard they push the hardware. The sheer scale and fidelity that they put on screen makes even 30FPS seem like a miracle.

 

[SmokedMeat]

Beta testers as always.

 

[b0uncyfr0]

Unacceptable. We have upscaling and frame gen tech - at least use them and give us more options!!

30 fps needs to die.

 

[DirtyBast8rd]

Unsurprised.

 

[DirtInUrEye]

Not surprising in the slightest for real people but a big wake up call for the PS people.

 

[kikkis]

If it's 40 i will take it. 30 is hard to swallow

 

[skneogaf]

I'm curious what the difference between the ps5 version and the ps5 pro version will be, hopefully pssr will be used, maybe even a frame generation too. 60fps would be soo nice!

 

[Z O N E]

Honestly, I won't be surprised.

Xbox Series S/X and PS5/PS5 Pro will be 30 FPS.
Next-gen they sell you a next-gen version with "improved" graphics and "higher" frame-rate.

They know people will double dip so it's quite literally the easiest way to make a lot of money for them.

 

[kazuyamishima]

45-60 fps for the Pro would be ideal.

 

[Moses85]

 

[DirtInUrEye]

Blame the cut down R5 3600 in the consoles.

 

[Edgelord79]

PC it is then.

 

[Mr Moose]

And when did this guy leave Rockstar?

 

[Holammer]

The real surprise would be if they managed to get it running comfortably at 40fps.

 

[SweetTooth]

No thanks, not playing anything where i drive cars and flight stuff with 30fps. It's fucking 2025.

So..you are not buying Switch 2? Interesting

 

[Rudius]

A 40 fps mode would suffice for me. It's not 60, but much better than 30, and for a game of that scope it's acceptable.

 

[PendekarRajawali]

People will blame Series S for this.

 

[Madserb2023]

It's as expected. The PS5 Pro will likely just run it at a higher resolution due to the same CPU. It's probably possible with some sacrifices to run it at 40 but it is still strangely rare for 40 fps support in games. Something like Silent Hill 2 could run at 40. Developers just don't seem to do it so expect 30.

 

[Mr Moose]

People will blame Series S for this.

For what? Some guys opinion? He doesn't know shit.
He left Rockstar in 2017.

 

[Calverz]

30 fps on an £800 console is not acceptable. 40fps mode would help significantly if you have 120hz vrr capable display though

 

[rm082e]

If anyone was expecting 60fps on base PS5, that's real funny. I'd expect them to have a performance mode for Pro that achieves 60 at some significant sacrifice, but not the base PS5.

 

[Thief1987]

"I don't know" the article

 

[KloetenQuetsche]

Shock!

My hope that we can play GTA with 120fps is now gone! Fuck!

 

[Digital-Aftertaste]

 

[DirtInUrEye]

30 fps on an £800 console is not acceptable. 40fps mode would help significantly if you have 120hz vrr capable display though

You could email them and ask for an 1152x648 upscaled to 1080p mode.

 

[Bartski]

I call VRR in the 40s on the Pro.

 

[Scrawnton]

Series that always launches at sub 30fps continues to launch at sub 30fps. Why anyone expected 60fps on console is beyond me. GTAV being 60fps on PS5 is not a reason to have ever expected GTA6 to be 60fps.

 

[YeulEmeralda]

I don't give a flying fuck about GTA6 but aren't Rockstar games always 30fps on consoles?

 

[Kokoloko85]

Fingers crossed PS5 Pro will do it fine

 

[Lucifers Beard]

With that CPU, I absolutely cannot see 60fps being a thing in GTAVI. I imagine that there will be way too much going on under the hood for it to be possible.

 

[DinoD]

if I don't get at least 40fps on PS5Pro. I will end the universe,

 

[winjer]

With those graphics, only delusional people were expecting it to run at 60 fps con consoles.

 

[Big Al]

While the ps brethren are swinging from the chandeliers and playing from day 1, and exclusive for 10 years, you hang your hat on your fake frames in 10 years time.

This going to be salty.

 

[Kvally]

45-60 fps for the Pro would be ideal.

We be getting 30 on our Pro. Go PC for the juice!

 

[Ozriel]

So the article is about a guy that doesn't know shit. Amazing.

To be fair, I’d expect him to say he doesn’t know shit even if he knew shit.

You don’t work there for over a decade without having buddies you speak to.

 

[Skifi28]

Maybe it will, but I don't see anything in the article as proof. Someone that hasn't really worked on the game and is not an engineer. All I read is "maybe" and "I don't know" yet it's being taken for granted by some posters.

 

[ReyBrujo]

In line with what everyone but PS fans knew somehow.

Maybe it will, but I don't see anything in the article as proof.

Only proof is that the trailer is 30fps, I think it's just cinematic but if people think it's gameplay then it's 30fps.

DF thinks there's a chance for 60fps on Pro but on stock PS5, nah. Maybe 720p 60fps native with upscaler.

 

[MaKTaiL]

All this tells me is that their engine is sh*t.

 

[HRK69]

Even at 25 fps I would play the hell out of it

 

[Embearded]

"...an AI upscaler thing like the PlayStation is doing..."

The guy is an animator, how trustworthy is he when he speaks like that about technical topics?

 

[lh032]

"former"
"expects"

lets assume this ends up true, do you think PC version will run any better?

Just take a look at dragon dogma 2 and monster hunter wild PC ver.

if the console ver is shit, PC ver most probably is shit as well (not up to PCMR standard)

 

[MakeMudosGreatAgain]

'Former'.

 

[Unknown?]

No thanks, not playing anything where i drive cars and flight stuff with 30fps. It's fucking 2025.

Your TV has Nvidia frame gen tech called motion interpolation. Thank me later!

 

[Schachtier]

Is GTA6 even real?

 

[adamsapple]

The least surprising thing, honestly.
