GTA 6 on Xbox Series S
It runs. Storage is the hard part
GTA 6 answers › Xbox Series S
Yes. GTA 6 runs on Xbox Series S and targets 30 fps, the same as every other console. Confirmed
The Series S is the cheapest way to play GTA 6 at launch. Rockstar has not published its resolution, and the catch is drive space.
Performance on Series S
Rockstar said on November 10 that GTA 6 targets 30 frames per second on every console at launch: PS5, PS5 Pro, Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S. No resolution figures have been published for any of them, and there is no 60 fps mode at launch. Confirmed
The Series S settings are also what Xbox Cloud Gaming uses for GTA 6, which tells you Rockstar treats it as the baseline version of the game. Confirmed
Will GTA 6 fit on a Series S?
| Console | Usable space | After a 212 GB install |
|---|---|---|
| Series S, 512 GB | About 364 GB | About 150 GB left |
| Series S, 1 TB | About 800 GB | About 590 GB left |
On the 512 GB model the game takes nearly 60 percent of the drive, and the console needs working room while it installs and patches. Plan to delete most other large games, or add a storage expansion card. The full maths is in our Series S story.
What you get either way
The Series S plays the same game as the Series X: same story, same map, same price. One purchase covers both consoles, so a copy bought for a Series S works on a Series X later. Confirmed
Quick answers
Can the Xbox Series S run GTA 6?
Yes. Rockstar lists Xbox Series X|S as a launch platform, and the game targets 30 fps on both.
Is GTA 6 worse on Series S than Series X?
Rockstar has not published resolution figures for either. The frame-rate target is the same. Expect a lower resolution on the Series S.
How much space does GTA 6 need on Series S?
Up to 212 GB for the download. Clear about 260 GB to leave room for installing and a day-one patch.
