Captured Entirely Using PS5
Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6) continues to generate excitement with its latest reveals, including a stunning second trailer. Fans were captivated by the realism and quality showcased, leading Rockstar Games to announce on X (formerly Twitter) on May 8 that the trailer was "captured entirely in-game from a PlayStation 5, composed of equal parts gameplay and cutscenes."
This revelation left fans debating which segments were gameplay, as the entire video appeared to be of cutscene quality. A fan noted that all cutscenes at Rockstar Games run in-game, yet some remain skeptical, questioning whether the visuals could truly be in-game footage rather than pre-rendered cutscenes.
Additionally, curiosity arose about whether the trailer used a standard PS5 or the rumored PS5 Pro, given the significant performance and graphical differences. Rockstar Games has yet to clarify, leaving fans to speculate.
