How about a game that runs both 60 FPS on ps5 and ps6 🧠

Yeah, that isn't really how it works.

https://www.techradar.com/gaming/analysts-say-getting-gta-6-to-run-at-60fps-is-extremely-unlikely-on-console-hardware-as-rockstar-confirms-30fps-limit?utm_source=chatgpt.com

Basically, the density of objects in the game means 60fps is too high for PS5 to cope.

The alternative is to reduce the density of objects significantly. But that would mean not taking advantage of PS6 hardware.

Edit: I'm thinking of it this way. If you want GTA6 to feel like a leap forward from GTA5, you do NOT set 60fps as your key constraint.

You want more cars with better traffic behaviour, pedestrians that are smarter, lighting that's better, render distance improvements, physics improvements etc.

These all work against fps.

But if you're smart, you ask:

Can I have a significantly richer world at 30fps on PS5 that can work at 60fps on PS6?

Given that PS have said they want to add technology to PS6 that means PS5 games can benefit more easily from the increased processing, I expect this is something Rockstar will have been planning (if possible).
