Grand Theft Auto 6, a.k.a. GTA 6, hype is never-ending. Amid other news, leaks, and rumours, there's a fresh wave of buzz around the game, and this time, it's not the characters or the gameplay; it is how smoothly the game might run on Sony's upcoming PS5 Pro. According to a popular X (formerly called Twitter) user, Detective Seeds, Rockstar is reportedly working closely with PlayStation engineers to optimise GTA 6 for the PS5 Pro. The game is already running at a stable 60 frames per second (fps) across multiple graphics setups. Rockstar and PlayStation team up to showcase GTA 6 on Sony hardware The claims don't stop there. As per Seeds, who is also known for his leaks and predictions, the collaboration is actually a part of a broader marketing partnership between Rockstar and PlayStation. The deal is apparently what's making such deep technical cooperation possible, aiming to highlight GTA 6's complete potential on Sony's hardware. Seeds wrote, 'As of right now, 60 fps is being achieved on the PS5 Pro only.' It is predicted that GTA 6 will have multiple graphical options on the PS5 Pro on release. GTA6 has been, and continues to hit 60fps while being optimized for the PS5 Pro on multiple graphical settings. PS engineers are assisting with the optimization due to the new tech being implemented and rolled out with a current target date of May 2026. They are also assisting… PS5 Pro + GTA 6 bundle promotions Apart from the collaboration, the X user also hinted at an upcoming PS5 Pro + GTA 6 bundle promotion that is expected to be a part of Sony's next big marketing game. However, none of this is confirmed officially by either Rockstar or Sony yet. But Sony and Rockstar have always had a pretty solid working relationship. Interestingly, the rumoured technical assistance from PlayStation may go beyond GTA 6. According to Seeds, Sony engineers are also reportedly involved in other titles of Rockstar Games, potentially working on a next-gen upgrade for Red Dead Redemption 2 and a GTA 4 port. Both projects might be released ahead of a major PS5 Pro update expected in May 2026.

Is there going to be a GTA 6 trailer 3? Viral Reddit post claims possible release after doing the math
Is there a third trailer for GTA 6? Well, the long wait for Grand Theft Auto VI has left fans speculating about the game, its new features, characters, map, and more. But amid this, the GTA 6 trailer 3 is causing fans to lose their heads. Let's find out what the reality is. Amid the swirling speculations about the game and after fans went gaga over the first two trailers for the game, now they anticipate that Rockstar Games may have worked on the GTA 6 Trailer 3. The first two trailers for Grand Theft Auto 6 were released over a year ago, but there are still 11 months left for the game to officially release. Is there a Trailer 3 for GTA 6? According to Gaming Bible, as fans eagerly await the third trailer of the game, Rockstar Games may be cooking up a third trailer for all. The report notes that hopefully, this trailer will have actual gameplay to see rather than just the in-engine footage. A Reddit post under the user name @r EinfachBlueG recently went viral after predicting a window for when they believe Rockstar will release the third trailer for GTA 6. In the post, the user calculated the math on how soon before the launch of Rockstar Games released a third trailer for its previous games, GTA 5, GTA 4, Red Dead Redemption, and Red Dead Redemption 2; they used an average date of 17th January, 2026. But it clearly can't be the date, but it can be somewhere around in the winter. Netizens react to the viral GTA 6 Trailer 3 post As soon as the post surfaced on social media, it quickly grabbed the attention of fans and netizens. One said, "They've already shown they're not following any previous patterns; these posts are meaningless." While another added, "The only pattern I see repeating itself is the delays, there is no way the game will launch in May of 2026 , probably delayed one more time to November or December. That date of May is to make the investors happy and to evade the loss of hype for the gam." "No, Rockstar doesn't talk about release dates for their games when they are confident they will be able to reach them, if they weren't confident they would have given a release window," one said.

GTA 6 companion app in the works? Rockstar Games job post raises questions
Rockstar Games may be planning to release a mobile companion app alongside the upcoming Grand Theft Auto 6 (GTA 6). The speculation comes after fans observed a job listing on the company's careers page, which suggests that the studio is seeking mobile app developers with expertise in iOS or Android platforms. Rockstar Games may develop a GTA 6 companion app, as hinted by a new job listing.(Rockstar Games) The job posting, which appears on Rockstar North's career page, calls for candidates with experience in mobile application development. Although the description does not directly reference GTA 6, the timing and location of the listing have led fans to connect it to the much-anticipated game. Rockstar North is believed to be at the centre of GTA 6's development, which makes it unlikely the position is related to a different project. Rockstar Games has previously released mobile companion apps for earlier titles like GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2. Those apps allowed players to access maps, track stats, and manage in-game items. However, critics noted that the features were somewhat limited and missed opportunities for deeper integration. Shifts in Mobile App Strategy Among Developers In recent years, several game companies have stepped back from companion apps. Blizzard, for example, discontinued its World of Warcraft app. Despite this, some developers are still finding ways to include companion features. Nintendo recently integrated Zelda Notes into its Switch app, which shows that interest in mobile add-ons persists. Also read: Mafia: The Old Country releasing on 8 August, 2025: Here's everything you need to know The possible move by Rockstar indicates a carry on interest in enhancing the gameplay experience beyond the main console or PC interface. The studio could be exploring new ways for players to stay connected with the game world through their smartphones or tablets. Fan Theories on Possible Features On the other hand, the gaming community on Reddit has proposed several ideas about how a GTA 6 companion app might function. One common theory suggests the app could simulate the in-game smartphone seen in trailers. This feature might allow players to receive non-player character (NPC) messages and calls on their real devices. Others speculate that the app could support the fictional social media platform featured in GTA 6, which lets users post and engage with content related to their in-game activities. Also read: Microsoft launches Xbox Copilot beta on Android app to assist gamers with real-time support Although these ideas have generated discussion, the practicality of implementing such features remains uncertain. Developing a companion app with real-time integration could require additional resources and may not align with the game's primary production goals. No Official Confirmation Yet At present, Rockstar Games has not made any announcements regarding a companion app for GTA 6. While the job listing hints at possible developments, no direct link has been confirmed. Until official details emerge, speculation about the companion app remains based on interpretation and prior patterns. As the release of GTA 6 draws closer, fans are eagerly monitoring every Rockstar's updates and job postings for any indication of new features. Whether the companion app becomes a reality or not, the possibility has added another layer of interest around one of the gaming industry's most closely followed titles.
