Captured Entirely Using PS5

Rockstar Games' announcement that the second trailer for GTA 6 was "captured entirely in-game from a PlayStation 5, composed of equal parts gameplay and cutscenes" has sparked a lot of discussion. The trailer's high quality led many fans to question which segments were actual gameplay, as everything appeared to be cutscene-worthy. A fan noted that all cutscenes in Rockstar Games are run in-game, yet some remain skeptical about the footage being entirely in-game.

Additionally, fans are curious about whether the trailer was captured on a standard PS5 or the more powerful PS5 Pro, given the significant performance and graphical differences between the two. Rockstar Games has not yet clarified 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. One notable return is Phil Cassidy, a familiar face from the GTA series known for selling guns. Fans noticed a change in his design, particularly his physique, suggesting a new take on the character while maintaining his core personality and involvement in the gun trade through the Ammu-Nation store chain. A subtle nod to the PS5 was also included, with a PS5 console and controller visible in the trailer, reinforcing the use of the system for capturing the footage.

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 be able to customize their character's physique. The trailer also teases a variety of activities, including golf, fishing, scuba diving, hunting, basketball, kayaking, and fight clubs. While not officially confirmed, these activities could be part of the final game, given that everything shown was captured in-game.
