FAQ
Does GTA 6 look better on PS5 Pro?
Rockstar hasn't confirmed any platform-specific technical details. As soon as official information or reliable analysis exists, you'll find it here.
Which platform has more players?
Reports suggest PS5 pre-orders are running well ahead of Xbox. If your friend group is split across platforms: crossplay details for GTA Online haven't been confirmed.
Can I carry my save between PS5 and Xbox?
Cross-progression hasn't been confirmed for GTA 6. For now, plan as if your progress stays tied to whichever platform you start on.
Is it worth buying a PS5 Pro just for GTA 6?
There's no solid basis for that yet — Pro-specific improvements haven't been confirmed. If you already own a PS5 or Series X, it's worth waiting for official technical details before spending more.
