Probably yes if GTA 6 is your main reason to upgrade and you already have a 4K/120Hz VRR TV — but don’t buy a PS5 Pro only for GTA 6 until Rockstar confirms the final console performance modes.

Typical price ranges (USD):

  • PS5 Pro: about $699–$799 new; used/refurbished should usually land around $620–$720 depending on condition and seller.
  • PS5 (standard): about $449–$499 new for the current model; used/refurbished is often around $320–$420.

What that means for GTA 6:

  • If you don’t own a PS5, the PS5 Pro is the safer premium pick for the best console version of GTA 6, especially on a good 4K TV.
  • If you already own a PS5, it’s usually not worth upgrading yet just for GTA 6, since the game will be built to run on the base console.
  • If you play on a 1080p TV or mostly care about value, the standard PS5 is likely the better buy.
  • If you want the best PlayStation setup at launch, the Pro is the one to lean toward — but only after confirmed GTA 6 enhancements are announced.

Price caveat: launch pricing and resale values can move quickly, so check recent sold/completed listings before buying.

Bottom line: PS5 Pro is worth considering for GTA 6 if you want the best PlayStation experience and have the display to show it. It is not worth a blind upgrade yet if your current PS5 is working fine.
