Rockstar documents suggest GTA VI could get the Ballad of Gay Tony episode treatment

I’m curious about why you are so certain that it will have it. Granted, its in no way impossible for it to happen, but so many things point to it not being the case that it just feels like you (and many other people) are setting yourselves up for disappointment when I’d personally just rather have more grounded expectations and be pleasantly surprised if I’m wrong.

1. Most (if not all) Rockstar games have targeted 30fps upon release. Higher FPS versions have happened years later when an enhanced version comes out.
2. GTA games are very simulation/physics/cpu heavy. Not saying this prevents a 60fps mode entirely. But if base console is targeting 30fps only, the work to get to 60 won’t just be lowering resolution or using PSSR instead of FSR or whatever internal solution they have.
3. What exactly would be Rockstar’s purpose for diverting resources before release in order to develop the Pro port that reaches 60fps? They DONT need a Pro port AT ALL to sell the simply stupid amount of copies they will undoubtedly sell.
4. It makes waaaay more sense for T2 and Rockstar to provide visual and resolution increases and just do a remaster with even better visuals and 60fps when PS6 and the next Xbox come out some 2 years later… because we all know without a doubt that a Remastered version will be coming to next gen

I just really can’t see it happening unless they were already targeting a 60fps mode on the base consoles. There is no reason whatsoever for Take Two or Rockstar to be worrying about a Pro port unless Sony makes a deal with them.

But as I said, I rather think it won’t happen and pleasantly surprised if I’m wrong, than expecting it will happen and be bitter/annoyed if it doesn’t
