GTA VI cloud streaming will be limited to Xbox consoles at launch
Xbox One owners will be able to play Grand Theft Auto VI through Xbox Cloud Gaming without upgrading to a newer console. But despite the service’s broader reach, Rockstar Games says streaming will be limited to Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One consoles when the game launches next week.
Rockstar says the cloud version will use Xbox Series S graphics settings. The announcement means Xbox One players can stream the game, while cloud access on PCs, the web and TVs will not be available at launch.
The arrangement gives Microsoft the only announced cloud-streaming option for GTA VI at launch, though the source does not establish that its contract explicitly grants exclusive rights. Xbox chief strategy officer Matthew Ball said on X that Microsoft would not stream the game exclusively. Sony could announce its own cloud plans later, but Rockstar says the game will support Remote Play on both PlayStation and Xbox. Remote Play is not cloud streaming.
