GTA 6 PS5 Pro Files Reveal Ray-Tracing Differences<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Rockstar community dataminer Lucas7yoshi<\/a> reported differences in files associated with ray tracing between the standard PS5 and PS5 Pro versions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The findings reference BVH4 and BVH8<\/strong>, data structures used to organize 3D geometry for ray-tracing calculations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the dataminer, one Story-related data set is approximately 64 KB on the standard PS5 but reaches 223.5 MB on PS5 Pro<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This suggests that the upgraded console may use additional geometry-related data for certain rendering operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the files do not confirm higher-resolution character models, exclusive ray-tracing effects, or improved frame rates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PS5 Pro Enhancements Remain Unconfirmed<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Although the discovery points to technical differences between the two PlayStation versions, Rockstar Games has not explained what these files represent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Xbox Series X version has also not been examined in the same way, meaning comparisons between the consoles remain premature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For now, the findings provide an early indication of potential PS5 Pro-specific optimizations rather than confirmation of a particular graphical upgrade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
