GTA 6 will be playable on Xbox One, but not locally: Rockstar says on its site that the game will be available through Xbox Cloud Gaming on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One, "using Xbox Series S graphics settings", reports IGN France. The 2013 console executes nothing, it displays a stream sent from Microsoft's servers.
Yes, with clear limits. The Hollywood Reporter says the game will be playable on day one through the cloud at 1 a.m. ET, and that Xbox calls GTA 6 "the most pre-ordered title of all time on the Microsoft Store". You still have to buy the game: it is not in Game Pass, according to MacGeneration, which relies on Rockstar's page.
Only an Xbox Series console or an Xbox One. MacGeneration insists: no smart TV, no browser, no Mac, no PC, no iPhone. The Hollywood Reporter adds that streaming sticks such as Fire TV are out "for now". Even a machine sold as an "Xbox" but running Windows, like some handhelds, is not covered. Remote play from your own console remains possible, per the same source, which technically opens the door to a PC or phone if you have the console on hand.
Another limit is quality. The cloud uses Series S settings, the weakest Xbox, and GTA 6 already targets 30 frames per second on consoles, as we explain in our 30 fps article. Rockstar has given no resolution.

It is still not announced. The cloud changes nothing there, and Take-Two's chief sent announcements back to Rockstar, as we read in this article. A player who wants to skip the 212 GB download can stream, but only on an Xbox console.
Xbox One owners are not left out, provided they accept a Series S image and a stable connection. For prices and editions, see the price page.
