GTA 6 Second Trailer Details

Captured Entirely Using PS5

The buzz around Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6) has been electric, especially with the release of its second trailer. Fans were astounded by the lifelike visuals and top-notch quality showcased. Rockstar Games took to Twitter (X) on May 8 to confirm that the trailer was "captured entirely in-game from a PlayStation 5, composed of equal parts gameplay and cutscenes."

This revelation sparked discussions among fans about which segments were gameplay, as the entire video appeared seamless, almost like a series of cutscenes. One fan noted that all cutscenes in Rockstar Games are rendered in-game, yet skepticism remains about whether what they saw was purely gameplay or a mix. Additionally, the community speculated whether the footage was from a standard PS5 or the anticipated PS5 Pro, given the significant differences in performance and graphics. As of now, Rockstar Games has not clarified this, leaving fans to ponder.

Hidden Details in GTA 6 Second Trailer

The trailer is packed with details, some of which require a keen eye to spot. One of the exciting returns is Phil Cassidy, a beloved character from previous GTA titles, who appears to be involved in the gun trade once again with his Ammu-Nation store chain. However, his appearance has evolved, leading fans to wonder if this is the same Phil they've come to know.

Despite the changes in his design, Phil's character remains consistent, deeply entrenched in the arms business. Another subtle nod in the trailer is the inclusion of a PS5 console and controller, reaffirming the platform used to capture the footage.

Rockstar Games might be bringing back the Gym System, a feature first introduced in GTA San Andreas, where players could sculpt their character's physique. This is hinted at by scenes of protagonist Jason Duval working out on a beach.

The trailer also teases a variety of activities like golf, fishing, scuba diving, hunting, basketball, kayaking, and fight clubs. Although not officially confirmed, these activities were part of the in-game footage, suggesting they might be included in the final release.

Fans continue to unearth more references and Easter eggs daily. Despite the game's delay to May 26, 2026, on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, the excitement remains palpable. Stay tuned to our updates to catch the latest on GTA 6!
