Entirely Captured on PS5

Rockstar Games took to Twitter (now known as X) on May 8 to announce that the second trailer for GTA 6 was "captured entirely in-game from a PlayStation 5, composed of equal parts gameplay and cutscenes." This revelation has sparked both amazement and curiosity among fans. The trailer's stunning realism led many to question which segments were actual gameplay, as everything appeared to be of cutscene quality. A fan clarified that all cutscenes in Rockstar games run in-game, yet skepticism persists about the authenticity of the footage.

Moreover, fans are curious whether the trailer was captured on a standard PS5 or the rumored PS5 Pro, due to the significant differences in performance and graphics. Rockstar Games has not yet clarified this, leaving fans in suspense.

Hidden Details in the GTA 6 Second Trailer

The trailer is packed with both obvious and subtle details. One notable return is Phil Cassidy, a familiar face from the series, seen running an Ammu-Nation gun store. Despite a change in his appearance, his character remains consistent, continuing to supply weapons to players. A keen-eyed viewer also spotted a PS5 console and controller in the trailer, hinting at the system used for capture.

Another exciting feature teased in the trailer is the potential 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 again be able to customize their character's physique. The trailer also showcased a variety of activities, such as golf, fishing, scuba diving, hunting, basketball, kayaking, and fight clubs. Although not officially confirmed, these glimpses suggest they could be part of the final game, especially since Rockstar emphasized that everything shown was captured in-game.

As fans continue to discover new references and Easter eggs, the anticipation for GTA 6 remains high despite its delayed release date. The game is now scheduled to launch on May 26, 2026, for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Stay tuned for more updates by checking out our comprehensive article below!
