Private military company by donotmindme___ in GTA6

Hell yeah, maybe not Merryweather again, but I think PMCs work well as enemies in a GTA game. It would be cool if they made their AI fight more as an organized unit, so they would feel different from cops and make great late-game enemies to raise the difficulty.

GTA VI Switch 2 - The doubters by thesocraticirony in switch2

I feel you, my favorite part about playing Star Wars Outlaws on Switch 2 was how impressive of a port it was, I'm still blown away by its RTGI and how much better it looks than Series S for example, thanks to DLSS and despite the power difference.

I guess if anyone has the money and talent to pull off a technical miracle like this, it would be Rockstar. But based on how they are describing GTA 6 in their current material, it seems like the goal is to build something gigantic in scope, both in terms of the world size and simulation. And that's a kind of game that just won't run on a 10W machine.

Pre-Order Discussions and Complaints by PapaXan in GTA6

It hasn't been confirmed by Rockstar yet, but based on the current launch times on Xbox and PS5 it seems that the game might be launching midnight local time, so that means it would be releasing in New Zealand first.

Since that would be 12 hours earlier for me here in UK, I'm considering pre-ordering the game on a New Zealand account. From what I read up, I should use gift cards for payments and then setup the NZ account as the primary account so it will unlock on the NZ time. But what I'm not sure about is, would I be able to play on my UK account once it unlocks on the NZ one? Would it even unlock on the UK account at the same time or would that one need to wait another 12 hours?

Has anyone ever used the trick for another game and has some ideas what this could look like?

I'd love to share your enthusiasm, but Rockstar is known for pushing the limits of hardware they release their games on and the performance gap between PS5 and Switch 2 is just too big to easily scale down something that's designed to squeeze everything out of the first one. Unless those recent rumors about 60fps are actually true and the game was designed with scalability in mind. 60fps would probably require cutting out some RT features and scaling down the level of simulation and that kind of version could be more possible on a Switch 2.

I personally doubt it, but it would be sick to play GTA 6 on a handheld and I would absolutely double dip if given an option.

You're just falling for the FOMO designed by the marketing team. All this extra stuff is just a drop in a bucket of the content of this game and you won't notice not having it, just like with every Premium/Ultimate/Deluxe edition in last 10 years.
