3 articles · Updated · Mashable · Sep 2

Nov. 19 is the release date for Grand Theft Auto VI on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series consoles, with no PC launch window announced.
Sony is pushing a PS5 edge, saying GTA VI "plays best on PS5" and noting the only official gameplay shown so far—the 26-minute August footage—was captured on PS5.
Digital Foundry called the game a standout in real-time rendering, but said current consoles will almost certainly ship without a 60-frames-per-second mode, leaving 30 FPS as the likely standard.
Xbox Series X is still expected to be broadly comparable because its power gap with PS5 is small, while the cheaper $500 Series S may need lower resolution or other visual compromises.
Pre-orders have added to the platform debate after IGN reported PS5 versions outselling Xbox by 8-to-1, a figure Microsoft disputed as buyers weigh which console version to choose.
