GTA 5 made it to the PS5 and Xbox Series X, but one version clearly outperforms the other.
The new and improved GTA 5 is here, and boasts a lot of technical advantages: Increased framerates, 4K, more population density, faster loading times... the list goes on and on, and this really is the definitive GTA 5 version... on PS5.
GTA 5 Runs Better On PS5 Than On Xbox Series X
No, the reason is not those overhyped DualSense features... gtfo with that. That stuff is so annoying, and most people turn it off anyway. Instead, the differences are visual, and also very obvious. YouTuber ElAnalistaDeBits ran a side-by-side comparison that clearly shows the game running better on the PS5: The game is more detailed on the PS5, and it looks sharper, while maintaining a better framerate throughout, even in the most demanding and explosive situations. On the Xbox Series X, the game regularly drops from 60FPS to 40FPS, while the PlayStation 5 keeps its framerate at 60.
That's another huge advantage for the PS5, which also currently allows you to get GTA Online for free. Another small win for Sony, who recently announced they're bringing one of its exclusive games to the Nintendo Switch, suggesting that a collaboration between Sony and Nintendo might be in the works. Microsoft shaking in its boots?
