30 FPS on PS5 feels heavy when you aim. On PC you can go higher.
According to Digital Foundry and VGC, GTA 6 runs at 30 FPS on PS5 and Xbox Series X. If you have lived in mouse aim, that pace feels heavy. ConsoleMouse runs on Windows, Mac, Linux and Raspberry Pi, works with PS5 and Xbox, and puts 4K upscaling on the picture Remote Play sends to your monitor. GTA 6 is supported on day one, and ConsoleMouse is coming soon to Steam.

What the reports actually say
Digital Foundry and VGC both land on 30 FPS for PS5 and Xbox Series X. VGC, on 28 August 2026, carried a machine-translated account from Davy Jones at Flow Games of Rob Nelson at Rockstar North: the console builds are at 30 FPS in this stage of development, and a 60 FPS option still needs the tech team. That is not a Rockstar press release. GTA BOOM and Tom’s Hardware repeat the same account.
Digital Foundry measured something narrower. They looked at the Extended Look video Rockstar supplied, captured on a base PS5, not a shipped build. They read a fixed 30 FPS target, an internal picture around 1440p scaled toward 4K, and a mostly stable rate with the odd dropped frame. In the follow-up they call a 60 FPS console version extremely unlikely, because the GPU and especially the CPU would have to draw the same world in half the time.
PS5 Pro and Xbox Series
The PlayStation store lists Grand Theft Auto VI for PS5 and as PS5 Pro Enhanced, with the game releasing on 19 November 2026, and it lists Remote Play. It does not list a frame rate. A hoped-for 40 FPS mode on PS5 Pro is not confirmed, and nothing here is Rockstar locking the Pro at 30.
The Xbox store lists the game for 19 November 2026 on Xbox Series X|S, again with no frame rate. GamesRadar extends the same 30 FPS remark to Series X. Series S has not been shown, so this page does not give it a resolution or a frame rate.

| Rate | What it is | Where it stands |
|---|---|---|
| 30 FPS | What Digital Foundry and VGC describe for PS5 and Xbox Series X. | Reported. Rockstar has not published a frame rate. |
| 60 FPS | A mode that would have to draw the same world in half the time. | Not announced. Digital Foundry calls it extremely unlikely on console. |
| 120 FPS | Frames ConsoleMouse adds on the PC picture. | Frame generation on your monitor. |
- The 120 FPS come from frame generation on the PC picture.
What you can do on the monitor
ConsoleMouse runs on Windows, Mac, Linux and Raspberry Pi and works with your own PS5 or Xbox. You aim with mouse and keyboard on the PC. GTA 6 is in on day one. Coming soon to Steam.
In single player the ban risk is practically zero. ConsoleMouse is not a Rockstar, Take-Two, Sony or Microsoft product. The 4K upscaling here is applied to the Remote Play picture, which is separate from the scaling Digital Foundry described in the video.
What stays the same
The console still runs the game. You need your own PS5 or Xbox, a computer or a Raspberry Pi, and a home network. ConsoleMouse does not replace a Rockstar patch, and it does not set its own calendar date.
