'Rockstar literally just spent over a billion dollars': Ori studio founder wants you to stop demanding 60 FPS on Xbox Se

Rockstar Games’ parent company has reportedly invested over $1 billion into GTA 6’s development, according to remarks by Microsoft-owned studio Moon Studios’ founder. In a recent statement, Moon Studios co-founder Gears of War alum Tim Handley urged fans to reconsider expectations for the game running at 60 frames per second on Xbox Series S. He argued that demanding such performance overlooks the technical challenges of porting a high-budget, graphically intensive title like GTA 6 to lower-tier hardware. While Rockstar has confirmed the game will be compatible with Xbox Series S, Handley suggested that optimizing frame rates on budget consoles may require trade-offs in visual fidelity or world scale. This comes as fans debate whether the game’s hardware demands will prioritize power over accessibility. With GTA 6 set to launch on Nov 19, 2026, the discussion highlights the tension between pushing technical boundaries and ensuring broader player access.
