Yes, the Xbox Series S will run GTA 6. Rockstar and Microsoft have confirmed the game for Xbox Series X|S at launch on November 19, 2026. The Series S version is a digital-only release, matching the game’s lack of a physical disc across all platforms.
Performance expectations
No official frame rate, resolution, or performance mode details have been announced for any console, including the Series S. The community expects 30 fps at 1080p or 1440p on the Series S, given its hardware compared to the Series X and PS5, but this is not confirmed by Rockstar.
- The Series S has a less powerful GPU and less RAM than the Series X or PS5, so expect lower resolution or visual settings.
- Rockstar has not said whether there will be a 60 fps mode on any console at launch.
- Pre-orders opened on June 25, 2026, and the Standard Edition costs $79.99 on Xbox Store.
If you own a Series S, you will be able to play GTA 6 on day one. Just temper expectations on visual fidelity until Rockstar releases specific specs, which they haven’t done yet.
