After GTA 6: Extended Look Showed Rockstar’s Game Running at 30FPS, Tech Experts Say a 60FPS Console Version Is ‘Extremely Unlikely’ and ‘Genuinely Challenging’ Even on PC

Digital Foundry has analyzed the recent 27-minute reveal of Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto 6, which showcased gameplay at 30 frames per second (fps). The game is set to launch on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S this November, with a focus on maximizing visual detail at the fixed frame rate. Significant advancements in character rendering, including skin shading and hair simulation, have been noted. The internal rendering on the PS5 is speculated to operate at 1440p without dynamic resolution scaling, although this may result in some softness and aliasing. Digital Foundry expresses skepticism about the feasibility of a 60fps mode on current consoles, citing the game's design balance and the complex CPU demands of its detailed world. Future console iterations and a PC release may support higher resolutions and features like DLSS, but achieving 60fps could still be challenging. IGN has provided exclusive insights into various aspects of the game, including its romance system and expansive map.

Microsoft is reportedly losing 0 per console sold, and the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 is expected to see a price increase. A shortage of memory and storage, driven by AI demands, has made essential gaming hardware more expensive. Mobile gaming and PC gaming are also affected, with graphics card prices projected to rise by 20% to 30%. The term “RAMageddon” has emerged to describe the doubling of memory prices since late 2025.

Игру Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy слили на торренты за неделю до выхода

A copy of Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy has leaked on torrent trackers one week before its official release on August 27 for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series. The game lacks the anti-piracy protection Denuvo, which may have contributed to the leak.
