GTA 6 Trailer 2 Filmed on Base PS5, Shows Gameplay

Is GTA 6's Second Trailer Too Good to Be True? Skeptics initially questioned the small disclaimer stating the footage was captured on PS5, suggesting it might originate from PS5 Pro or PC hardware. However, Rockstar has officially addressed these concerns.

In a recent social media statement, Rockstar confirmed Trailer #2 was captured entirely using PlayStation 5 hardware, clarifying it contains balanced gameplay and cinematic sequences.

The developer shared this official clarification:

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's technical achievement even more remarkable. The trailer's astonishing visual fidelity - now confirmed to run on current-gen console hardware - demonstrates Rockstar's technical prowess. When GTA 6 launches on May 26, 2026, PlayStation 5 will have been on market for over five years.

The Rockstar development team continues pushing technological boundaries, though their gameplay reference has stirred debate within the community. One notable sequence - Jason entering his apartment - appears to transition seamlessly from cutscene to gameplay.

The GTA community remains divided:

Is this where gameplay begins?

Enthusiasts continue dissecting every trailer frame to distinguish gameplay elements from scripted sequences.

While speculation continues, we've compiled our latest GTA 6 findings including seventy exclusive screenshots and emerging fan theories from Trailer #2.
