A new 60 fps trailer for "Grand Theft Auto V" is helping tide fans over as they eagerly await the popular open-world title's appearance on the PC. Upon first glance, the trailer immediately shows the drastic improvement in the graphics department when compared to the console versions of the game.
The graphical difference should be expected, especially since the versions of the game meant for the Playstation 4 and Xbox One run at 30 fps, according to IGN. Differences between the two versions of "Grand Theft Auto V" become even more obvious once both are set alongside each other.
The release of the new trailer comes weeks after Rockstar Games hyped the game via a steady stream of screenshots showcasing its stunning visuals, according to PC Gamer. Improved frame rate is more than just an aesthetic upgrade.
When it comes to a game such as "Grand Theft Auto V," which also features multiplayer mode, the enhancement of frame rate helps facilitate a more responsive frame rate. A responsive frame rate is crucial since even a slight hint of lag when it comes to this aspect of any game can have a huge impact on mutiplayer interactions, according to Cinema Blend.
The PC version of the game will also feature new additions to its soundtrack. A new album from The Alchemist and Oh No is set to debut along with the PC version of the game, according to IGN. The album, entitled "Welcome to Los Santos," will be played on The Lab in the game and available in the real world via digital, CD, or vinyl format on April 21.
Whether or not the new music will also be featured on the older versions of the game is still unknown. The PC version of "Grand Theft Auto V" will be released on April 14, after being delayed in January and March.
