GTA 6 Second Trailer Information

Captured Entirely Using PS5

The gaming world has been buzzing with anticipation since the reveal of GTA 6's second trailer, which showcased stunning realism and quality. Rockstar Games took to Twitter (X) on May 8 to clarify that the footage was "captured entirely in-game from a PlayStation 5, composed of equal parts gameplay and cutscenes." This revelation left fans in awe, as the trailer's seamless visuals made it challenging to distinguish between gameplay and cinematic sequences. One fan noted that all cutscenes in Rockstar's titles run in-game, though some remain skeptical about the footage being entirely in-game rather than purely cutscenes.

Curiosity also surrounds whether the trailer was captured on a standard PS5 or the speculated PS5 Pro, given the significant performance and graphical differences between them. Rockstar has yet to address these queries, leaving fans to speculate.

Things You Might Have Missed: GTA 6 Second Trailer

The trailer is packed with details, some more subtle than others. One notable return is Phil Cassidy, a familiar face from the GTA series known for his gun-selling endeavors. While his appearance has been altered, particularly his physique, his involvement with the Ammu-Nation store chain suggests he retains his classic persona.

Eagle-eyed viewers also spotted a PS5 console and controller in the trailer, reinforcing that the footage was captured on this platform. This could be an intentional nod from Rockstar Games to the hardware used.

The trailer hints at the return of the Gym System, first seen in GTA San Andreas, with protagonist Jason Duval seen working out on a beach. This suggests players might once again be able to enhance their character's build through gym activities.

Additionally, the trailer teases a variety of other activities including golf, fishing, scuba diving, hunting, basketball, kayaking, and fight clubs. Although not officially confirmed, these glimpses suggest they could be part of the final game, considering Rockstar's claim that everything shown was captured in-game.

As fans continue to uncover more references and Easter eggs, the excitement for GTA 6 remains palpable despite its recent delay. The game is now slated for release on May 26, 2026, on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Stay tuned for the latest updates by checking out our related articles below!
