There have been rumors about a leak that has sparked excitement in the gaming community. A leaker named Detective Seeds on X claims that GTA 6 will run at a smooth 60 FPS on the upcoming PS5 Pro console.
According to this leak, Rockstar Games and Sony's PlayStation engineers are working very closely together to make this possible, and fans can't stop their enthusiasm.
What the Sources Say
Tom's Guide reports that the PS5 Pro is set for a major May 2026 software update, which will enable 60 FPS in GTA 6 through advanced upscaling and engine-level optimizations.
There have been reports from trusted sites like Notebookcheck, Tom's Guide, and TweakTown that support the idea that the PS5 Pro will receive a major update around that time to make sure that it can run GTA 6 at 60 FPS.
This performance boost is expected to be ready by May 2026, which is in line with the rumored release date of GTA 6, which is also in May 2026.
Reasons for Smoother Performance
There could be a new tech upgrade inside the PS5 Pro. Advanced upscaling technology like PSSR 2 (PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution) and AMD's FSR 4 (FidelityFX Super Resolution) could help deliver this higher frame rate without losing the image quality.
These improvements are expected to help the game look better and feel smoother, especially during action-packed moments.
Caution & Community Feedback
This leak is primarily originated from one single source, Detective Seeds, who has a mixed track record. Various communities on Reddit have brought to our attention that the leaker has been banned from several forums and not to believe everything just yet.
Also, a few gamers have raised technical concerns. one Reddit user pointed out that the PS5 Pro still uses the same CPU as the regular PS5, which limits how much better the performance can really get.
Even though the GPU is much more powerful, the CPU can hold it back in some situations.
Official Response?
Although, in between all of these leaks, Rockstar and Sony haven't confirmed anything about this leak. That is not surprising, as big companies do not entertain rumors.
But in a previous statement made by Sony, they said that while the PS5 Pro won't have games that are fully exclusive, it will still offer better performance, like smoother frame rates for upcoming games like GTA 6.
For now, all we know is that the 60 FPS rumor is intriguing and potentially a game-changing update for console gamers, but it remains in the dark until claimed. If the leak is proved to be right in the near future, GTA 6 on PS5 Pro could offer a butter-smooth, next-generation experience.
