GTA 6 Trailer 2 Used a PS5, Setting High Expectations

The excitement around Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6) continues to soar, especially with the release of its second trailer, which was captured entirely on the PlayStation 5. According to a tweet from Rockstar Games on May 8, the trailer was "captured entirely in-game from a PlayStation 5, composed of equal parts gameplay and cutscenes." This revelation has left fans in awe of the game's stunning visuals and realism, sparking debates about what parts of the trailer were actual gameplay, as the high quality made everything seem like cutscenes.

Some fans have expressed skepticism, questioning whether the footage was from a standard PS5 or the more powerful PS5 Pro, due to significant differences in performance and graphical capabilities. Rockstar Games has yet to clarify this, leaving fans to speculate.
