GTA 6 preload files point to a newer PSSR 2 build and a possible 40fps mode on PS5 Pro

Digging through the GTA 6 pre-load has turned up the first clues about how the game will run on PlayStation 5 Pro. Dataminer Tex2, reading the build’s metadata on GTAForums, reports a 120Hz high-frame-rate flag with no variable refresh rate, and a PSSR version value of 13.60 — newer than the 13.00A build used by Cyberpunk 2077 and Assassin’s Creed Shadows. That combination has fuelled talk of a possible 40fps mode, since 40 divides evenly into a 120Hz signal, but Tex2 stresses that offering such a mode is entirely up to Rockstar. The files also point to support for the Pro’s high CPU frequency mode, while the base PlayStation 5 shows no sign of Sony’s QSSR upscaler. Rockstar has announced no performance modes for the game, so all of this stays unconfirmed until launch on 19 November.
