GTA 6 Trailer 2 Highlights

Filmed Exclusively on PS5

Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6) continues to captivate with its latest reveals, particularly the stunning second trailer. Fans were blown away by its lifelike visuals and seamless quality. On May 8, Rockstar Games announced via Twitter (X) that the trailer was entirely captured in-game on a PlayStation 5.

The announcement clarified that the footage is "a blend of gameplay and cutscenes, all recorded in-game on a PlayStation 5." This led some fans to question which segments were gameplay, as the trailer's polished visuals resembled cutscenes. One fan noted that Rockstar’s cutscenes typically run in-engine, yet skepticism persists about whether the footage truly reflects gameplay.

Curiosity also surrounds whether the trailer used a standard PS5 or the enhanced PS5 Pro, given the notable performance and graphical differences. Rockstar has not yet clarified, leaving fans speculating for now.

Hidden Details in GTA 6 Trailer 2

The trailer is packed with details, some immediately striking and others requiring closer inspection. Notably, it hints at the return of Phil Cassidy, a fan-favorite character known for supplying weapons in the series. Fans observed a shift in his appearance, particularly his build, raising questions about whether this is the same Phil from past titles.

Despite the redesign, Phil retains his familiar role in the gun trade, tied to the Ammu-Nation store chain. The trailer also subtly features a PS5 console and controller, likely a nod to the system used for capturing the footage.

Another exciting reveal is the potential return of the Gym System, first seen in GTA San Andreas, where players could train to enhance their character’s physique. The trailer shows protagonist Jason Duval exercising on a beach, fueling speculation about this feature’s comeback.

The trailer also teases a range of activities, including golf, fishing, scuba diving, hunting, basketball, kayaking, and fight clubs. While unconfirmed, these elements appear to be in-game, as Rockstar emphasized that all trailer footage was captured in-engine.

Fans continue to uncover new references and easter eggs daily. Despite a recent delay announcement, anticipation remains high for GTA 6’s release on May 26, 2026, for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Stay tuned for the latest updates on the game by checking our detailed article below!
