Does GTA 6 Trailer 2 seem too impressive to be genuine? Skeptics questioned the fine print stating it was captured on PS5, speculating whether the footage originated from a PS5 Pro or PC. Rockstar has set the record straight.
The developer clarified via social media that GTA 6 Trailer 2 was recorded "entirely in-game" using a PS5, emphasizing it blends gameplay and cinematic sequences equally.
Here’s Rockstar's full statement:
Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer 2 was captured entirely in-game from a PlayStation 5, comprised of equal parts gameplay and cutscenes.
This revelation makes GTA 6 even more remarkable. Trailer 2’s visuals showcase staggering detail—all running on hardware that debuted five years ago. By the game’s May 26, 2026 launch, the PS5 will be five and a half years old.
Rockstar’s developers continue to push boundaries, though their mention of gameplay raises questions about specific moments. Fans have already highlighted Jason entering his apartment as a potential transition from cutscene to gameplay.
Is this where gameplay begins?
