Some players have started canceling GTA VI pre-orders following the 30 FPS cap announcement
Translated with AI from the Russian original.
However, it has not yet escalated into a mass cancellation campaign.
Recently, Rockstar Games confirmed what some players had feared. Grand Theft Auto VI (at least at launch) will not get a 60 FPS mode — the game “targets 30 frames per second” on all target platforms, including PlayStation 5 Pro.
This announcement came shortly before the game's release, while pre-orders opened back in the summer. Now players like @Nick_Marseil are announcing that they are canceling their Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders.
Some commenters suggested that people who are canceling their pre-orders now will see a Metacritic score around 95 and gameplay at launch, and will then return to buy GTA VI.
Nevertheless, “30 frames” has its defenders as well. Players believe that for a game of GTA VI's caliber, it is entirely possible to tolerate the lack of 60 FPS — in return, the developers will offer an engaging story and a huge amount of high-quality content.
The release of Grand Theft Auto VI is scheduled for November 19, 2026, on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S consoles. According to analyst data, players are actively placing pre-orders, and posts about “cancellations” are isolated cases.
