GTA 6 Second Trailer: Captured on PS5
The excitement around GTA 6 has reached new heights with its latest trailer, showcasing stunning realism and high-quality visuals. On May 8, Rockstar Games took to Twitter (X) to announce that the trailer was "captured entirely in-game from a PlayStation 5, composed of equal parts gameplay and cutscenes." This statement left fans in awe, questioning which segments were actual gameplay, as the seamless quality made everything appear as if it were a cutscene.
One fan noted that all cutscenes in Rockstar Games are run in-game, yet some remain skeptical about whether the visuals seen are truly in-game footage or just expertly crafted cutscenes. Additionally, the community is curious about whether the trailer utilized a standard PS5 or the upcoming PS5 Pro, given the significant performance and graphical differences. Rockstar Games has yet to clarify, leaving fans to speculate.
Hidden Details in the GTA 6 Second Trailer

The trailer is packed with details, some of which require multiple viewings to spot. A notable return is Phil Cassidy, a familiar face from previous GTA titles, now seen selling guns through his Ammu-Nation store chain. While his physique has changed, his character remains true to form, continuing his involvement in the arms trade.
Eagle-eyed viewers also caught a glimpse of a PS5 console and controller, a subtle nod to the system used for capturing the trailer.

Another exciting feature hinted at in the trailer is the return of the Gym System, first seen in GTA San Andreas. The protagonist, Jason Duval, is shown working out on a beach, suggesting players might once again have the chance to enhance their character's physique.
The trailer also teases a variety of activities, including golf, fishing, scuba diving, hunting, basketball, kayaking, and even fight clubs. Although not confirmed, these glimpses suggest that these activities might be part of the final game, given that Rockstar stated everything shown was captured in-game.
As fans continue to dissect the trailer, new references and Easter eggs are being discovered daily. Despite a recent delay, anticipation remains high for GTA 6, now slated for release on May 26, 2026, on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
