Players Are Canceling Pre-Orders for GTA 6 Due to the 30 FPS Limit

Pre-loading for the most anticipated game of the year, GTA 6, has officially started this week, and to mark the occasion, Rockstar decided to treat players to a new short trailer. The developers also confirmed the game will run at 30 FPS on all consoles, including PlayStation 5 Pro. And it seems that not all players were happy with this news.

So much so that some players have started canceling their pre-orders for GTA 6. A user going named Nick_Marseil posted a photo of his refund on his X page; he explained his decision by saying he had been counting on 60 FPS support, and now he’ll wait until the game is released on PlayStation 6, where that feature will be available. Push Square launched a poll that showed 23% of players are willing to cancel their GTA 6 pre-orders due to the 30 FPS cap. It remains unknown how many players have actually requested refunds.

Despite players' disappointment, yesterday it became known that GTA 6 has already sold 10 million copies and generated over $1 billion in revenue. You can also purchase your copy of the game on Eneba at a great price. Use the promo code EGW5 to get an additional 5% off, and Eneba will also give you 14% cashback. And don’t forget to check out the Black Friday section.

Several users also pointed out that Red Dead Redemption 2, released in 2018, also ran at 30 FPS, and that didn’t stop the game from becoming one of the best in its generation. Speaking of the new GTA 6 trailer, it showed that Rockstar has significantly improved the backflip animation compared to how it looked this summer during the first official gameplay trailer. Additionally, fans believe that Gay Tony—a character from GTA 4 who also appeared in GTA Online— is featured in the trailer.

Rockstar also showed a snippet of new GTA 6 gameplay yesterday. The clip looks so realistic that people thought it was real-life footage. It uses an in-game cell phone camera and features footage from multiple angles, including those from Jason and Lucia's perspectives.

Grand Theft Auto VI launches on November 19 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S.
