With Grand Theft Auto VI already available to preload on PS5, you might be wondering if you and a friend need to buy two copies to play at launch. PlayStation has addressed game sharing in its GTA 6 support guide, and it even covers the physical code-in-box edition.

Can You Game Share GTA 6 on PS5?

Yes, you should be able to game share GTA 6 on PS5 using Console Sharing and Offline Play. In its Grand Theft Auto VI code support guide, Sony says that if you’re using a profile that doesn’t own the game, the account that does own it needs to enable Console Sharing and Offline Play on that PS5.

That also answers the question if you bought the GTA 6 physical box copy. The physical Standard Edition comes with a download code. Once you redeem it, the game is tied to the PlayStation account that claimed it.

Other profiles on the PS5 where that account has sharing enabled can play the downloaded copy. The same PS5 sharing settings apply if you bought GTA 6 directly from the PlayStation Store.

How to Game Share GTA 6 on PS5

If you’re sharing your copy with someone who has their own PS5, enable the setting on their console using the PlayStation account that owns GTA 6.

1. Sign in to the account that owns GTA 6 on the PS5 where you want to share it.
2. Go to Settings → Users and Accounts → Other → Console Sharing and Offline Play.
3. Select Enable and download GTA 6 from the owner’s game library.
4. Switch back to the profile you want to play on and launch the game once it unlocks.

You can only enable Console Sharing and Offline Play on one PS5 at a time per account. If the owner already has it enabled on another PS5, they’ll need to disable it there first.

Is GTA 6 Game Sharing Blocked on PS5?

Sony lists Console Sharing and Offline Play as a standard PS5 feature for purchased digital games, and its GTA 6 support page points players to that exact setting. If you’re seeing a padlock while preloading, keep in mind that Grand Theft Auto VI unlocks at midnight local time on November 19 on PS5.

If the game is still locked after launch, check that sharing is enabled on the right console and that the account that bought or redeemed the game is the one you used to set it up. For those wanting to play the game the second it unlocks, make sure to use GTA 6 preload option to download it now.

Nearly three decades after its original PlayStation and PC launch, this Japanese tactical simulation RPG is making a comeback on modern consoles this week.

Nobunaga Oda den Is Now Playable on Modern Consoles

Experience historically accurate battle scenes, including the Battle of Okehazama, the Siege of Inabayama, and the Battle of Nagashino.

With Grand Theft Auto VI launching on November 19, you might be wondering which console you should buy it on. Sony has revealed what the PS5 Pro does differently, and Microsoft has confirmed a way to play on Xbox One. So, what’s the best console for GTA 6? Here’s what each version offers and which one I’d pick.

What Is the Best Console for GTA 6?

The PS5 Pro is my pick for the best console to play GTA 6 if you care most about graphics. Rockstar has confirmed that ray-traced shadows are exclusive to Sony’s upgraded console. The PS5 Pro version also uses PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) to make the image look clearer. Those are the two upgrades that would make me buy the PlayStation version if I had both consoles.

If you care more about being able to stream the game, Xbox is the way to go. Microsoft is bringing GTA 6 to Xbox Cloud Gaming at launch, including on Xbox One. That’s a pretty big deal if you’ve been holding off on buying a new console just to play Grand Theft Auto VI.

GTA 6 PS5 and PS5 Pro Features Explained

The regular PS5 still gets a handful of features many players will appreciate. Sony says GTA 6 uses the DualSense controller’s haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and built-in speaker throughout the game, with accessibility settings to adjust them. It also supports Tempest 3D Audio, which helps you hear where sounds are coming from, and uses the PS5’s SSD for faster loading.

On PS5 Pro, PSSR is a major feature that helps clean up the image, while ray tracing is used to render shadows. I’m particularly interested in seeing how those shadows look in the middle of Vice City, where you’ve got traffic, pedestrians, and tall buildings all in the same scene.

Regardless, which console you choose, Rockstar has announced GTA 6 will run 30 FPS for launch. However, the reason I’d go with the PS5 Pro is for those visual upgrades.

GTA 6 Xbox Series X|S and Cloud Gaming Features Explained

Xbox Series X is Microsoft’s best option for playing GTA 6 locally, and Series S is its more affordable console that can install and run the game. Both consoles can also stream it through Xbox Cloud Gaming. If you’re on Xbox One, streaming is how you’ll be able to play.

Xbox Cloud Gaming access starts at 10 PM PT on November 18 / 1 AM ET on November 19. The streamed version uses Xbox Series S graphics settings, even if you’re streaming on a Series X. How well it plays will also depend on your internet connection. You’ll need to buy GTA 6 separately, and Microsoft says players in supported markets can buy cloud playtime without a Game Pass subscription.

Both platforms also support Remote Play, which streams the game from your own console. Xbox Cloud Gaming runs the game on Microsoft’s servers, which is what makes the Xbox One option possible.

GTA 6 PS5 vs. Xbox Features at a Glance

Console	How you can play	Standout features
PS5 Pro	Local install and Remote Play	PSSR, exclusive ray-traced shadows, DualSense features, and Tempest 3D Audio
PS5	Local install and Remote Play	DualSense features and Tempest 3D Audio
Xbox Series X	Local install, Remote Play, and Xbox Cloud Gaming	Microsoft’s best local Xbox experience
Xbox Series S	Local install, Remote Play, and Xbox Cloud Gaming	Most affordable Xbox console that runs the game locally
Xbox One	Xbox Cloud Gaming	Stream the game on the Xbox One you already own

At the end of the day, GTA 6 is shaping up to be one the most impressive game’s technically. So whichever console you choose, will likely be a fantastic experience. It just comes down to whether you value the best visual fidelity, vs cloud streaming and platform accessibility.

One of the quality-of-life improvements that is available in World of Warcraft: Forever from the start is the existence of Dual Specializations. That said, players will have to do some work before they unlock this option.

Dual Spec In WoW: Forever Unlocks at Level 40 and Is Expensive

One of the many painful trademarks of the original era of World of Warcraft was the great expense that reseting talents (or re-spec’ing) would cost. The stacking respec fee is still expensive in World of Warcraft: Forever, but luckily higher level players can unlock the ability to have a secondary specialization that they can switch to.

In order to gain access to the secondary specialization feature, players first need to reach level 40. Although there are some level 60s running around the world, the average player likely still hasn’t hit those high level milestones quite yet.

In addition to reaching the minimum level requirement, unlocking the secondary specialization will cost players 50 gold. That may not sound like anything to the average retail WoW player, but in the early days of the WoW: Forever economy that is a big chunk of change. Also keep in mind that right at level 40 most players will be scraping together silver and gold to save up for their first mounts.

Although the feature is expensive and many players will decide to wait to unlock it when they first hit level 40, it is a great quality of life inclusion and offers players the ability to swap specs to fulfill different roles in dungeons, PvP matches, or even while solo questing.

Once the game has been around longer and players have mains with extra money to spare, this 50 gold cost won’t feel quite as restrictive, but it is definitely going to force players to face a tough decision with their first characters.

Be sure to check back soon for lots more World of Warcraft: Forever news, updates, and guides as the game’s early days continue to play out.

World of Warcraft: Forever and World of Warcraft: Midnight are both available now on PC.

New Fortnite Sprite Powers and Rarities Explained

The November 12 Captain’s Day update added four new base Sprites to the game, including Mini Miku. That also means players have access to new Fortnite Sprite powers. Here’s what each one does.

• Mini Miku Sprite (Mythic) grants a Friendship Bubble when you emote with other players. The cooldown decreases with each level-up.
• Squiplash Sprite (Epic) deploys a Healing Smoke Bomb when your health is low. Each level-up decreases the cooldown and increases the duration and healing.
• Sir Oscar the Second Sprite (Legendary) increases your Pickaxe damage and gives you a temporary speed boost when your Shield breaks. Both bonuses increase with each level-up.
• Zee Sprite (Mythic) grants regenerating Zero Point dash charges. Each level-up increases the maximum number of charges and decreases the recharge time.

What Do Gold Sprites Do in Fortnite?

Finally, the new Gold Sprite variants grant 3× bonus XP from eliminations. It’s the same power the Gold Sprites had in Chapter 7 Season 3, and the new variants have a “Liquid Gold” texture.

If you’re trying to complete your Treasure Hunters Sprite collection, you can start hunting for 11 new Sprites today. The rest arrive on November 22, when all 14 Gold Sprite variants become available. In the meantime, I’m going after Zee. I missed those Zero Point dashes.

Playstation is releasing an updated version of its Playstation Portal, a handheld console that was first launched in 2023. This updated version, set to release December 10, already offers significant improvements over its predecessor – but with one serious catch, at least for some international players. 

The new PlayStation Portal will only release in Japan – for now

As disappointing as it may be for players outside Japan, the updated PlayStation Portal will be released only in Japan, at least for now. But it still paints an encouraging picture for fans worldwide. For one thing, it looks like it will address many of the issues gamers had with the original PS Portal, suggesting PlayStation is making changes based on community feedback. 

The first Portal was essentially a tool that let gamers play their PlayStation games without sitting in front of the console. However, unlike the Nintendo Switch or the Steam Deck, which don’t require any other equipment, players still needed a PS5 to use the PlayStation Portal. Not only that, but the PlayStation actually needed to be on while the Portal was in use, or gamers needed an active PlayStation Plus account to take advantage of Cloud streaming.  

The PlayStation Portal also lacked internal storage, so there was no way to download games directly to the console, and no way to play via the Portal without WiFi. That said, the original Portal still had positives. 

Sony’s New PlayStation Portal Is Almost Here. Here’s What’s Different and Who Can Buy It.

In addition to holding their Playstation library in the palms of their hands, freeing up a TV, gamers may also have been drawn to the price point. At the time of launch, it was $199.99, which made it more affordable than its competitors. It also boasted an 8-inch LCD screen featuring 1080p resolution for image clarity, and DualSense controllers, meaning the same interactive vibrations players enjoyed with their main console were transferred to the Portal. 

The upcoming Portal model addresses much of what players may have missed in the original, including actually having internal storage. On top of that, the new Portal includes a free one-month PlayStation Plus Premium subscription. And, perhaps most interestingly, this December 2026 model won’t require gamers to already own a PlayStation 5. It will also still be relatively budget-friendly, coming in at roughly $253 USD, or 40,000 yen. 

While it may be a little disappointing to hear that the new PlayStation Portal will only be released in Japan, Sony did mention the internal storage component was included with “future functionality” in mind. It’s not clear whether that means the updated Portal will receive a wider release, or if Sony is teasing upcoming hardware like the PlayStation 6.

It’s definitely something to keep an eye on.

While Assassin’s Creed fans might be anticipating further updates on the upcoming Assassin’s Creed: Hexe, recent online leaks could point toward two new games. One game could take players to a time and place they have long been hoping Assassin’s Creed would go, while the other could fit right into a player’s pocket. 

What could be coming next for Assassin’s Creed?

According to @xj0nathan on X, a YouTuber and streamer who posts about Assassin’s Creed and Resident Evil, he recently unearthed the codenames for two future Assassin’s Creed titles: “Mars” and “Pocket.” 

Ca aurait pris le temps mais ça y est, il est temps de vous dévoiler un nouvel Assassin's Creed normalement en développement chez Ubisoft : CODENAME MARS !

Je vous en dis + dans ma dernière vidéo : https://t.co/lyVUcgPP7I

Au fait, vous préférez la miniature de jour ou de nuit ? https://t.co/EoucstZSAO pic.twitter.com/pj5jDxIL64

— j0nathan (@xj0nathan) November 6, 2026

Evidently, “Mars” could be set in Ancient Rome, which would be the first time Assassin’s Creed has visited this particular time period, although Rome and its environs have been featured in the franchise before. In Assassin’s Creed II and its direct sequel, Brotherhood, players can visit Renaissance Rome, including the Vatican itself. Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla gets a little closer to ancient Rome, with Eivor exploring the ruins of Roman cities in 9th-century Britannia. 

And as the reported name suggests, “Pocket” would be a game geared toward mobile devices, which seems like it would offer a different play style than typical Assassin’s Creed games. Per xj0nathan, it would offer gameplay centered on individual challenges, like skill-based trials featured in Valhalla. They also shared hints about the potential art style, saying it could be less realistic-looking than previous franchise entries. 

Where ‘Assassin’s Creed’ Could Finally Be Heading Next, According to a New Leak

Remember, Ubisoft hasn’t confirmed this yet, so Assassin’s Creed fans shouldn’t get their hopes up. On the bright side, plenty is ironclad official. For one thing, fans can expect Hexe updates next year, with Ubisoft affirming the game is making “steady progress”. Although information like a release window is still in the future, Assassin’s Creed players can at least be fairly certain it’s on the way. 

But that’s not all. Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla just received an update that includes New Game+ content. The developer calls it “The Most Requested Update,” and the patch includes bug fixes and updates to inventory, weapon balance, and more. And, of course, it also offers a New Game+ playthrough, where gamers can carry over progress on weapons, runes, and codex entries. There’s also a reference to Assassin’s Creed: Shadows, with Eivor able to wear an outfit inspired by Naoe. 

So, whether “Mars” and “Pocket” prove to be accurate predictions, it’s clear Assassin’s Creed fans should be excited about what is to come.

After releasing Resident Evil: Requiem earlier this year, Capcom also announced that a Resident Evil: Code Veronica remake was in the works. Very little information has been released since then, and although Capcom recently changed the banner on their Resident Evil YouTube channel to a Veronica-related image, fans are hoping for a little more. Online speculation, though, suggests Resident Evil: Veronica could be pushed back to fall 2027. 

If recognizable online source @AestheticGamer1, also known as Dusk Golem, is anything to go by, it’s possible – but that doesn’t mean gamers will get their hands on Veronica early next year. They shared that Capcom initially hoped to release the game in Q1 of next year, which would fall between January 1 and the end of March. Now it looks like that potential release window has been pushed back at least once, if not twice. 

Another X user initially shared their frustration over the Game Awards receiving all the Resident Evil reveals, and Dusk Golem responded, shifting the focus away from the upcoming awards show. “The lack of Resident Evil marketing haven’t been because of that,” they wrote. 

Dusk Golem went on to say it seems Capcom is listening to feedback on Requiem and deciding to slow down development to “take their time for quality”. In that case, they said, Capcom would rather take the time now to fix “medium to medium-small issues” while the game was still in development. When asked by another X user what they meant by Requiem feedback, Dusk Golem referenced complaints that centered on the open-world aspect of the game, along with sections that were simply termed “alright”. 

‘Resident Evil: Code Veronica’ Remake May Have Been Delayed. Here’s Why.

These same considerations also seem to apply to any Requiem DLC, which the developer confirmed not long after the game’s release. Fans recently received an update from Requiem writer Haris Orkin. According to Orkin, the DLC could focus on Oswell E. Spencer, who has played an important role in Resident Evil from the very beginning and is heavily featured in Requiem itself. But Dusk Golem shared that the Requiem DLC is under the same internal scrutiny as Veronica, meaning Capcom is taking RE9 feedback into account as it develops its extra content. 

Still, all this doesn’t mean that fans won’t get a new glimpse of Resident Evil: Veronica at the Game Awards, which take place on December 10. When another X user commented, “So no RE: Veronica’s trailer on TGA 2026?”, Dusk Golem simply replied, “That’s not what I said.” 

So it seems that RE fans can still be hopeful that a new Veronica trailer might premiere at the Game Awards next month, but as for the game itself, it’s likely they may have to wait quite a while longer.

We are still a week away from launch, and there is already a GTA 6 mystery that players are trying to solve. One aspect of Grand Theft Auto VI’s marketing has sparked speculation among fans. From a possible nod to GTA V to theories about a hidden third protagonist, players have plenty of ideas about what Rockstar could be teasing.

Players Think There Is a GTA 6 Three-Bird Mystery

When Rockstar released the first GTA 6 trailer in 2023, we also got key art featuring Jason and Lucia. At the time, the image largely flew under the radar as just an official poster for the game. However, in September, a new fan theory began to pop up about Grand Theft Auto VI’s marketing potentially teasing in-game lore by featuring three birds in its promotional images.

The theory first surfaced on forums such as Reddit, when users began to point out that several pieces of Grand Theft Auto VI artwork specifically feature three birds. “Rockstar keeps slipping exactly three birds into GTA 6 artwork. That same detail has been there since the first reveal,” a user wrote in a now-viral thread on the GTA subreddit.

Do the three birds actually mean anything? Is it just a coincidence, or a random number of birds used in marketing material? Well, the GTA 6 three-bird conspiracy has now become one of the game’s first mysteries. It could mean absolutely nothing. However, that hasn’t stopped fans from speculating and sharing their wild theories about it.

GTA 6 Marketing Sparks Fan Theories

Since fans first noticed the three birds in the GTA 6 artwork, players have speculated about what they could mean. One of the more popular theories is that they’re a nod to GTA V’s trio of protagonists: Michael, Trevor, and Franklin.

However, here are some of the more interesting theories:

A Hidden Third Protagonist

Another theory is that the birds hint at a third playable character who hasn’t been revealed alongside Jason and Lucia. Some fans think this could tie into an epilogue or a surprise story twist.

Part of the Scenery

Other players think the explanation is much simpler. Birds are a natural fit for Vice City’s tropical setting, so their inclusion could just be a background detail.

A Goodbye to GTA V

Some fans think the birds symbolize Michael, Franklin, and Trevor heading off into the sunset as Rockstar moves on from the GTA V era. Others have compared this to older promotional art featuring Niko Bellic alongside a lone bird.

A Betrayal

My personal favorite, is a fan theory that believes two of the birds represent Jason and Lucia, and the third if the person who will betray them. I will admit this is a pretty big leap, seeing as we know little about the story itself. But this is a pretty fun nod to previous Rockstar Games which feature betrayals.

However, it should be pointed out that not all of the GTA 6 artwork features these three birds. In fact, there are only three examples of it including the: Grand Theft Auto VI vinyl artwork, Game Informer Magazine cover, and the first trailer’s key art.

Interestingly, the GTA 6 Extended Look artwork features six birds, although they are grouped in threes on either side of the image. All this to say, we could have a GTA 6 mystery on our hands. But it also might not mean anything at all!

Given how incredibly excited players are about the release of Grand Theft Auto VI on November 19, we can’t blame them for letting their imaginations run wild. Plus, Rockstar Games has a history of inserting crazy mysteries into its games. From Grand Theft Auto’s Bigfoot to Red Dead Redemption 2’s Easter eggs, there is a lot to uncover.

World of Warcraft: Forever has been live for almost a full week and Blizzard rolled out the first set of hotfixes during the the Tuesday server maintenance window.

Every Class Change in the November 10 WoW: Forever Hotfix

World of Warcraft: Forever has had a record-breaking launch for the WoW franchise. In addition to crushing concurrent player count goals, the game also boasted a pretty smooth launch window without major balance, performance, or server issues.

Although the launch has gone well, there are still some tweaks to be made with a weekly patch to apply some hotfixes. Most of the the changes impact seven of the game’s classes, but there are some other updates to the Auction House, Items, and Professions, as well.

Here is a full breakdown of all the class changes included in the November 10 update:

• Druid
  • Fixed an issue where Omen of Clarity could not activate after swapping specializations.
  • Restoration
    • Nature’s Swiftness now also makes Wild Growth instant.
• Hunter
  • Fixed a bug where Pets erroneously had 150% of their normal health. This is now corrected to 115% of their normal health.
  • Arcane Shot mana cost changed to 11% of base Mana for all ranks of Arcane Shot.
    • Developers’ notes: This means the Mana cost on all ranks will always be the same and rise gradually with level. Overall Mana cost at levels 6 and 60 are nearly identical to before this change, and slightly lower for levels in-between.
  • Beast Mastery
    • Summon Hawk Mana cost changed to 11% of base Mana for all ranks of Summon Hawk, same as Arcane Shot.
    • Melee damage dealt by the Hawk pet increased by about 80%.
• Paladin
  • Redoubt can now be tracked in the Cooldown Manager.
• Priest
  • Fixed an issue where the Revelation enchant was activated by Vampiric Embrace healing.
  • Holy
    • Fixed an issue where Holy Nova was not correctly unlearend when untalenting from the spell.
• Shaman
  • Maelstrom Weapon can now be tracked in the Cooldown Manager.
  • Weapon imbues and Weapon totems can now be used at the same time.
    • Developers’ notes: For example, this means the Shaman can benefit from Windfury Weapon and Windfury Totem at the same time, granting their attacks a chance to activate both.
  • Enhancement
    • Stormstrike damage reduced to 100% weapon damage (was 150%), and cooldown increased to 8 seconds (was 6 seconds).
    • Mental Dexterity: Intellect to Attack Power conversion ratio reduced to 33/66/100% (was 50/100/150%).
    • Maelstrom Weapon now grants 20% reduced cast time and Mana cost per application at all ranks (was 4/8/12/16/20% reduced cast time and Mana cost), and chance to activate now increases with rank and activates 6/7/8/9/10 times per minute (was 20 times per minute regardless of rank).
    • Maelstrom Weapon tooltip updated to display the Shaman’s % chance to activate it based on their Main Hand Weapon’s speed. For example, if the Shaman has the 5 points into Maelstrom Weapon and has a 3.6 speed weapon it will display a 60% chance to activate on swing, compared to if the Shaman is wielding a 2.0 speed weapon it will display a 33% chance to activate on swing.
    • Developers’ notes: Beta changes to Enhancement Shaman, alongside the Shock and Lightning Bolt changes aimed at Elemental Shaman, caused Enhancement to favor Spell Power and Intellect gear too heavily. While that gearing direction is not inherently a problem, it also pushed Enhancement away from Windfury, which we believe should remain at the heart of the specialization’s fantasy and gameplay. We want to make this adjustment now because it has significant implications for gearing in the upcoming raid. Addressing it before the raid opens will help prevent players from pursuing and winning highly contested items that could become much less valuable after a later change. With that in mind, many of these changes reverse the Beta adjustments aimed specifically at Enhancement and move the specialization in a more Windfury-friendly direction. We believe this better serves both Enhancement’s core fantasy and its intended gearing.
• Warlock
  • Fixed a bug causing the Succubus whip sound to play much too often.
  • Imp base damage of the first 4 Ranks of Imp’s Firebolt increased, and base Imp Health increased by ~15%.
  • Voidwalker base Health increased by ~15%.
  • Incubus base Health increased by ~15%.
  • Succubus base Health increased by ~15%.
  • Affliction
    • Soul Siphon now grants increased effect to your Drain Life, Drain Soul, and Wrack spells by 4/8/12% per each of your Corruption, Siphon Life, and Bane of Agony spells active on the target, up to a maximum of 36% (was any Affliction spell).
    • Wrack damage reduced by 30%.
    • Wrack no longer increases the damage of the Warlock’s periodic effects on the target.
    • Wrack tears the target apart from within for 6 seconds, inflicting Shadow damage every 1 second. While channeling, your Siphon Life, Corruption, and Bane of Agony effects on the target deal their periodic damage 100% faster.
    • Developers’ notes: Wrack speeds up how often your periodic effects deal damage, not how long they last. Bane of Agony still lasts its full 24 seconds, but while Wrack is channeled on the target, it deals damage twice as often. Why this change? Besides being unique, interesting, and more viscerally satisfying to see numbers pop up more often as Affliction – it fixes an issue that the previous design of Wrack had. Previously, Wrack increased periodic damage by a percentage, so if you stopped channeling just before a periodic effect dealt damage, that effect gained 0 benefit from the Wrack you just ended. Now Wrack speeds up your periodic effects while channeled, and the time it skips is kept after Wrack’s channel ends or is interrupted. For example, if you channel Wrack for 1 second during a 3-second Corruption tick, Corruption advances 2 seconds instead of 1, so its next tick lands 1 second later instead of 2, even if you stopped channeling Wrack.
  • Destruction
    • Bane of Havoc – fixed a bug where this ability was not incurring a global cooldown.
• Warrior
  • Arms
    • Sweeping Strikes no longer loses charges if no second target is hit.

As players continue leveling and giving Blizzard a lot more data to work with on the endgame experience, there are sure to be plenty of other balance tweaks and fixes along the way.

A screenshot circulating ahead of the Grand Theft Auto VI launch has revealed a part of a Guardian interview with Rockstar North’s Rob Nelson. The excerpt reveals new GTA 6 features that gives us a better idea of what Jason can do while exploring Vice City. Here’s when you can read the full interview.

When Is The Guardian’s GTA 6 Interview Coming Out?

The Guardian’s full GTA 6 interview with Rockstar comes out on Saturday, November 14, 2026. At the time of writing, it’s unclear if the Saturday issue will be behind a paywall, so players may have to subscribe to read the full conversation.

However an excerpt of the Guardian interview was released early in the outlet’s “Pushing Buttons” newsletter which previews the upcoming Grand Theft Auto VI edition. Here is everything that was revealed so far:

GTA 6 Lets Jason Eat and Drink at the Same Time

According to the Guardian excerpt, Jason can take bites of a donut with one hand while sipping a beer with the other as he walks around a gas station. Rockstar’s Rob Nelson also showed off how Jason eats a hot dog during a demo he gave to the Guardian.

“[Rob Nelson] takes huge delight in showing me tiny details, such as the way that Jason eats a hot dog or how, as he walks around a gas station, he can take bites of a donut with one hand while sipping a beer with the other. When Jason starts running, he hikes the six-pack of beers he’s carrying into the crook of his arm, the liquid inside the bottles sloshing around.”

The Guardian goes on to describe the details in GTA 6 as impressive and unprecedented for most AAA games. “The level of detail in this game is simply out of reach for any other game developer thanks to Rockstar’s abundance of money and time, and the patience from its parent company, 2K Games.”

The GTA 6 Demo Also Showed a Jewelry Store Robbery

Finally, the excerpt also describes a jewelry store stickup during the Vice City demo. According to the writer, Rob Nelson was briefly bothered by how one of the security guards’ feet were positioned.

This gives you insight into the level of detail Rockstar are paying attrition to in order to make Grand Theft Auto VI a polished experience when it launches on November 19.

Rockstar Games has finally revealed what frame rate Grand Theft Auto VI will run at launch on PS5 and Xbox. So why did Rockstar settle on 30 FPS for GTA 6, even on PS5 Pro? Here is what you need to know about the GTA 6 PS5 Pro Framerate.

Why Is GTA 6 30 FPS?

Rockstar has confirmed it chose 30 FPS for GTA 6 so it could preserve the density and visual detail of Leonida. The studio explained that it wanted to keep the game’s map and overworld as detailed and densely populated as possible.

Here is what Rockstar recently said about choosing 30FPS for GTA 6 at launch:

“Grand Theft Auto VI has been fully developed from the ground up to provide the best possible experience for the current generation of consoles, targeting 30 frames per second while pushing both platforms to their absolute limits to bring the vast and rich world of Leonida to life — while maintaining the density and visual fidelity of all its environments and inhabitants.”

At 30 FPS, the console also has twice as much time to produce each frame as it does at 60 FPS. That gives Rockstar more room to maintain the level of detail it wants across Leonida, from the streets of Vice City to the people who fill them. While some may have hoped for the GTA 6 PS5 Pro Framerate to be 60 FPS, we’ll have to wait as the game instead focuses on visual fidelity.

What Does GTA 6 Get on PS5 Pro?

The PS5 Pro upgrades Rockstar announced are focused on how the game looks. GTA 6 uses PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) to sharpen the image on PS5 Pro. The Pro also gets ray-traced shadows, which use the scene’s lighting and geometry to render how objects cast shadows.

If you’re picking which console to play on for November 19, you can expect 30 FPS on both PS5 models, with a sharper picture and ray-traced shadows on PS5 Pro. Rockstar has yet to announce a GTA 6 PS5 Pro Framerate 40 FPS or 60 FPS mode.

The GTA 6 preload is now live on PS5 and Xbox. If you pre-ordered digitally, you can start downloading Grand Theft Auto VI ahead of its November 19 release. Here’s how big the download is and how much room you’ll need to free up on your console.

How Many GB Is GTA 6 on PS5?

The GTA 6 download size on PS5 is 210 GB, and PlayStation says you’ll need at least 212 GB of free storage to preload it. Players who have pre-ordered the game on the PlayStation or Xbox store digitally, can now download Grand Theft Auto VI in full on their console.

However, how many GB GTA 6 is depends on the region, and console platform. While most versions of the game hover around the same overall size, there are some slight differences we’ll break down below:

GTA 6 Download Size by Region

The GTA 6 download size varies by region, as there are separate PS5 builds for Japan, Australia and New Zealand. Dataminers found that the Australia and New Zealand build is missing a file under 1 MB. Japan may be missing a larger file, though its exact PS5 download size is still unverified.

PS5 region	Reported preload download	Free space PlayStation lists
Global build	About 210 GB	212 GB
Australia and New Zealand	209.913 GB	212 GB
Japan	Exact size unverified	212 GB

How to Check if You Have Enough Space for GTA 6

From your PS5 home screen, go to Settings > Storage to see how much room you have. If you’re short, select Console Storage > Games and Apps to see what’s taking up space. You can delete a game you aren’t playing or move it to USB extended storage to make room. If you have a compatible M.2 SSD installed, you can download GTA 6 directly to it by changing your Installation Location in the Storage menu.

If you’re waiting for the physical edition, you’ll still need room for the full download. The PS5 box comes with a PlayStation Store code, and photos of the German packaging list 230 GB of storage. PlayStation’s online guidance for the digital preload lists 212 GB.

Battlefield 6 has just received a community update, with Season 5 Phase 2 arriving on November 10. The update covers a new event, which includes its own map, along with changes to hardware, weapons, and gameplay. 

To start with, there is a new map to explore. Geared toward infantry-only, the map consists of a “large, European-style resort”, according to the article on the EA website. Complete with both narrow hallways and packed gaming floors, along with open courtyards, the European Casino is designed to remind players of the Operation Metro map. And interacting with the map is more than just finding a way through hallways or courtyards. Players can smash through walls to create flank paths, and the tower at the center of the map can come crashing down at any time, forcing players to find a new way forward. 

There’s even a lazy river that winds its way through the property, although considering the map also comes with a new event, players might not have time to relax. The Casino Heist event also launches on November 10. Available for both Battlefield 6 itself and the battle royale REDSEC, the heist event offers the opportunity to defeat enemies and pick up more contracts, which then provide further objectives to complete. 

Completed objectives allow participants to earn DOUGH, a special currency for the event that can be swapped for a wide range of cosmetics, from vehicle skins to new Heist Mask soldier skins and weapon packages. Speaking of weapons, players can look forward to more updates on that front. The developers listened to what their community had to say, and weapons were high on the list of changes players were looking for, according to community surveys. 

‘Battlefield 6’ Players Have a Lot to Look Forward to in Today’s Major Update

Among other changes, players will see improvements in magazines, including more magazine capacities across a wide range of weapons, like shotguns and light machine guns. And for those who are looking for “a side of flair with their sidearms”, developers are also working on custom attachments for the M44 hand-cannon. 

Upgraded weapons aren’t the only new gear Battlefield 6 gamers can anticipate with this patch. Season 5 Phase 2 introduces not one, not two, but three new tools. First, there’s the NSW4 Carbine, which comes equipped with subsonic rounds. There’s also a signal jammer, the ADS-17 6GHz, a gadget that allows players to sabotage their opponents by taking down enemy radars and communication devices. And to get from one place to another, there’s the M142 MRAS truck, whose mobile platform offers players the perfect opportunity to pull the trigger on the go. 

This is just some of what the new Battlefield 6 patch has to offer, so it’s clear that next time gamers log on, they will have a lot to dig into.

Following the success of the Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake, recently released for the Nintendo Switch 2, it’s not surprising to consider that Nintendo would remake another Zelda title – and soon. But could “soon” already be on its way? According to online speculation, hints of the next Legend of Zelda remake could be right fans’ fingertips. 

Dataminers delving into the Ocarina of Time code discovered two interesting tidbits about what might come next for the iconic Nintendo franchise, although it’s important to note that nothing has been officially announced yet. One piece of information comes from AustinJohnPlays, a YouTuber who posts tips, tutorials, and updates for Nintendo Switch 2 games. According to a recent video on his channel, as he was exploring the data centered around two upcoming Amiibo figurines of Link and Zelda, he discovered something more. 

It all centers around dialogue. Evidently, when Link is wearing a certain mask, the NPCs he encounters are rather put off by it, if not downright alarmed. Some characters refer to the mask as “otherworldly” and “strange”, while Kakariko Village gravekeeper Dampé says looking at the mask makes him “feel weird”. Although there are no hints as to what the mask looks like, or what these dialogue options actually point toward, it’s definitely intriguing. 

It’s possible that these hidden dialogue options point toward a Majora’s Mask remake. The direct sequel to the original Ocarina of Time, the game follows a young Link as he explores the realm of Termina, where he is tasked with the child-friendly mission of preventing the moon from crashing into the earth. Link collects a variety of masks throughout the game, which enable him to transform into creatures like a Deku or a Goron. He also encounters a Skull Kid wearing the titular mask, which is a little – well, otherworldly and strange. 

Nintendo’s Next ‘Zelda’ Remake Might Be Hiding in ‘Ocarina of Time’

Now, all this could mean is simply that Nintendo is also planning on releasing a Skull Kid Amiibo to join the Link and Zelda already on the way by late 2027, without releasing any further Majora’s Mask content. But it could also mean that a remake of the game could be on the way sometime in the next two years. 

But that’s not all. Dataminers have also potentially uncovered a DLC for Ocarina of Time, per @OatmealDome on X. They posted a series of tweets that indicated there is data in the game for Master Quest, which could refer to the additional content for the original. Master Quest for the Ocarina of Time 1998 gave players a remixed version of the game that presented a greater challenge. 

Again, nothing has been officially confirmed by Nintendo, but considering the success of the remake, more Legend of Zelda content is far more likely than otherwise.
