GTA VI: Xbox Cloud Gaming versus Remote Play

Rockstar announces GTA VI through Xbox Cloud Gaming on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One, using Xbox Series S graphics settings. The Xbox One mention therefore concerns a remote stream; it does not announce a native Xbox One version of the game.

With cloud gaming, the game runs on remote infrastructure and its image is sent to the player. Rockstar notes that the connection and other technical factors may affect this experience differently from local play. The statement guarantees no universal latency figure.

The same announcement confirms Remote Play support on PlayStation and Xbox. Its principle is different: a console runs the game and sends its image to another device. Remote Play support does not establish a PlayStation cloud-gaming offer for this title.

Before choosing this option, check supported devices, your region, provider account and subscription requirements, and connection quality. Rockstar’s statement cannot be used to promise free access or inclusion in every subscription. ViceRepère has not yet measured this functionality with the released game.
