"GTA 6 Trailer 2 on PS5 Sets High Expectations"

The excitement surrounding Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6) continues to grow, especially after the release of its second trailer. Rockstar Games confirmed on Twitter (X) on May 8 that this trailer was captured entirely using the PlayStation 5, setting high expectations for the game's visual quality and performance.

Captured Entirely Using PS5

Rockstar Games announced that the second trailer for GTA 6 was "captured entirely in-game from a PlayStation 5, composed of equal parts gameplay and cutscenes." This revelation has sparked discussions among fans, many of whom were initially unsure about distinguishing between gameplay and cutscenes due to the trailer's high-quality visuals. A fan clarified that all cutscenes in Rockstar Games are run in-game, but some viewers still find it hard to believe that what they saw was not purely cutscenes.

The announcement also raised questions about whether the trailer was captured on a standard PS5 or the more powerful PS5 Pro. Given the significant performance and graphical differences between the two, fans are curious about which version was used. Rockstar Games has yet to provide clarity on this matter, leaving fans to speculate.

Things You Might Have Missed: GTA 6 Second Trailer

The second trailer for GTA 6 is packed with details, some of which are easy to miss. One notable return is Phil Cassidy, a beloved character known for selling guns to players. While his appearance has changed, his involvement in the gun business through the Ammu-Nation store chain remains the same. Fans have also spotted a PS5 console and controller in the trailer, reinforcing the claim that it was captured using this system.

Another exciting feature hinted at in the trailer is the return of the Gym System, first seen in GTA San Andreas. The protagonist, Jason Duval, is shown working out on a beach, suggesting that players might be able to customize their character's physique once again. The trailer also teases a variety of activities, including golf, fishing, scuba diving, hunting, basketball, kayaking, and fight clubs. While not officially confirmed, these activities were all captured in-game, according to Rockstar Games.

Fans continue to discover new references and easter eggs in the trailer, keeping the excitement alive despite the game's delay. GTA 6 is now scheduled for release on May 26, 2026, on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Stay tuned for more updates and insights by checking out our article below!
