"GTA 6 Trailer 2 on PS5 Sets High Expectations"

GTA 6 Second Trailer Details

Captured Entirely Using PS5

Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6) continues to generate excitement with its latest updates and trailers. The second trailer, which dazzled fans with its stunning realism and high-quality visuals, was revealed by Rockstar Games on Twitter (X) on May 8 to have been "captured entirely in-game from a PlayStation 5, composed of equal parts gameplay and cutscenes."

The seamless blend of gameplay and cutscenes led some fans to question which segments were actual gameplay, as the entire video appeared to be of cutscene quality. A fan noted that all cutscenes at Rockstar Games run in-game, yet many remain skeptical about the footage being entirely in-game rather than purely cinematic.

Curiosity also surrounds whether the trailer was captured on a standard PS5 or the anticipated PS5 Pro, due to the significant performance and graphical differences between the two. Rockstar Games has yet to clarify this, leaving fans to speculate.

Things You Might Have Missed: GTA 6 Second Trailer

The trailer is packed with details, some of which are easy to spot while others require a closer look. Notably, it appears that GTA 6 will reintroduce Phil Cassidy, a fan-favorite character known for selling guns. However, fans have noticed a change in his appearance, particularly his physique, suggesting a new take on the beloved character.

Despite the change in appearance, Phil's character remains true to form, still deeply involved in the gun trade with his Ammu-Nation store chain. Additionally, a glimpse of a PS5 console and controller in the trailer serves as a subtle nod to the system used for its capture.

Rockstar Games seems poised to revive the Gym System, first seen in GTA San Andreas, where players could work out and alter their character's physique. This is hinted at by scenes of the protagonist Jason Duval working out on a beach.

The trailer also teases a variety of activities players might engage in, including golf, fishing, scuba diving, hunting, basketball, kayaking, and fight clubs. While not officially confirmed, these scenes suggest that they could be part of the actual gameplay, given that everything shown was captured in-game.

Fans continue to uncover new references and Easter eggs daily. Despite a recent announcement pushing back the release date, anticipation remains high for GTA 6, now slated for release on May 26, 2026, on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Stay tuned to our site for the latest updates on the game!
