As the launch of GTA 6 inches closer, the PS5 Pro is being hyped as THE console for the job. But does it really live up to that? With the 2TB Xbox Series X on the horizon, PlayStation may face stiff competition. Here’s a closer look at what each console has to offer and whether the PS5 Pro truly deserves its GTA 6 crown.
Performance
The PS5 Pro is billed as a performance boost over the base PS5, but in practice, the differences might be subtler than you’d expect. Sony’s showcase (which you can catch on YouTube) highlighted the new console’s enhancements, but seeing a significant difference from the original PS5 requires a keen eye. The Series X is already more powerful than the regular PS5, so while the Pro could eke out a few more frames, don’t expect it to be a game-changer. Both consoles will deliver GTA 6 in stunning 4K, making every high-speed chase and car explosion look great regardless of your pick.
Storage Capacity
If there’s one thing we know, it’s that GTA 6 will be massive. And while the base PS5’s 1TB might seem adequate, that’s before factoring in that GTA 6 alone could eat up a significant portion of it. Enter the PS5 Pro and the Xbox Series X, each with a roomy 2TB. This extra space is a game-saver if you’re juggling multiple games in your library. Xbox has a slight advantage here, as it’s also known for better storage flexibility—ideal for anyone who’s serious about keeping a larger game collection.
Price and Physical Media
When it comes to price, the PS5 Pro is set to cost over $100 more than the 2TB Xbox Series X. For fans who like owning physical games, the PS5 Pro adds another catch: it’s digital-only. That means an extra cost if you want an external disc drive and another fee for a stand. Meanwhile, the Xbox Series X comes with its built-in drive, offering a more affordable and versatile option.

While the PS5 Pro’s “new and improved” branding might make it sound like the ultimate GTA 6 console, the Xbox Series X has plenty to say in that arena too. Which one are you going for?
