With the brand new Grand Theft Auto 6 around the corner, more knows has been coming out about the game.
From a new trailer showcasing PlayStation exclusive features to brand new screenshots, one of the bigger surprises being announced was from Xbox.
All about that, and even more important how to do it, we’ve got you covered in this article!
GTA 6 Announced on Last Gen
Xbox has officially announced that Grand Theft Auto 6 will be fully playable on Xbox One, with only one catch.
That catch being that the game does not run natively on the Xbox One, but through Xbox Cloud Gaming.
That service lets you stream the game to your own console whilst the game runs on one of their own devices connected to a server, resulting in no install and overall smooth gameplay if your internet connection can handle it.
Grand Theft Auto 6 can also be streamed through Xbox Cloud Gaming to the current-gen consoles Series X/S, however also is capable of running the game natively and is suggested to do so for the highest fidelity experience.
That means for the best visuals and smoother gameplay, with less input lag, the way to go is to play it natively.
Xbox Cloud Gaming currently lets you play free-to-play titles and Xbox games that you digitally own without having the game physically installed on your console.
The only downside to it is the reduced visual quality as it is being streamed to your console rather than being played natively, and a increase in input lag. Not to mention a loss of internet connection can disrupt gameplay.
The Cloud streaming service also only has two plans available, those being a free tier with advertisements and limited playtime, or a paid ad-free tier that can be purchased separately, as the ad-free tier is also included in Game Pass. Keep in mind that the different tiers within the Game Pass subscription also have different amounts of playtime for Xbox Cloud Gaming.
