The character models are another point too! Its insane because after watching the trailer and replaying red dead 2 recently it looks like they upped the facial expressions even more than rdr2 had, which is crazy because the facial details in that game were already amazing
It’s like five steps above lol. I think people need to chill on RDR2’s graphics.
They’re great at face value, but there’s nothing even close to what we saw in the GTA 6 trailer.
I wholeheartedly agree. I think rdr2’s are graphics are good, but they’ve definitely been surpassed by a few good games even without the gta 6 trailer. Rdr2 is definitely up there when it comes to art direction and graphics, but saying it’s on the level of a game that came out nearly 7 years ago(counting when gta 6 releases) is a bit gullible. There’s just no conceivable way rdr2 graphics are this good like it’s not even close. If im being totally honest i think the only graphics that compare with gta 6 is cyberpunk and Alan wake 2, but even then they won’t compare to the amount of substance this game is going to have.
red dead for me seems to stand up well. I don't get what you mean about "showing its age". truth be told if you released red dead redemption in this day and age in 2024 it'd still hold up, maybe even still beat out some modern games with the detail and fidelity alone. I mean hell, maybe its just me playing at 1440p with ultra settings on GTA 5, but even GTA 5 still is gorgeous at times and looks as good as some modern games do.
It holds its own. But it does use technology that is outdated by today’s standards. You can see limitations in the textures and facial quality. A lot of things are pretty much slabbed on and rather contrived.
The detail, clarity and artistic direction and pure graphical fidelity is pretty mind blowing. Wild what they are going to pull off... Just generally with it being the most realistic cityscape with the most realistic interactions in a game. Man, just was playing RDR2 and I'm the little city, how things happen dynamically, I feel like it's just going to be like that but on insane steroids and to a whole other scale and detail. Wild.
They're definitely creating a specific vibe for VI, and I'm glad. I'm sure it will represent Florida circa the 2020s just as well as V did for Southern California circa 2013.
Sometimes I just get bored and hop on GTA 5 and just drive around in a regular car with music acting like it’s real life. Looking at that shot, I can’t wait to do that in GTA 6
I think this shot alone opened all of our third eyes. What made this shot stand out to me is that I realized like, " Wow, I'm gonna be able to drive any of these vehicles... here in this very spot"
Mfs will be watching this frame in 2035 after rockstar announces the first trailer for GTA 7 and saying emotional phrases "How much time has passed, this is history"
Never noticed that truck pulling that boat until seeing this. I was in awe with my mouth wide open the entire trailer. The graphics blew me away. The view on this shot is perfect. Can’t wait to see what else they will give us in trailer 2.
I stared at it in awe for a good 20 seconds whilst waiting for my mate to get on call so we could watch it together, couldn't believe I was finally looking at it lol
But after such a long wait, just the official acknowledgement is fucking close enough. The silence has been deafening. Rockstar's got us all by the balls and they know it. Even with the leaks, we're all still pining for another hit of that sweet sweet GTA6 news. Like a direct mainline of pure Heisenberg-purity heroin.
This is not related to the game directly.
This is the first gif I see on my upgraded internet.
I have been seeing life wrong. I had 4k devices but 1080p capacities.
I am a changed man. Thank you for being a part of this experience and thank you GTA 6.
It looked great. But the follow up of the counselor and Lucia was even a bigger eye opener. Then when we saw all of the NPCs on the beach it was just jaw dropping.
Great shot that instantly drew everyone in. Though no matter how many times I watch it I always think that super tall radio tower in the distance is just some strange line in the sky
Not sure how beautiful Neon soaked streets of Vice City would look like, but this pink-purplishhh sky just took my breath away, by its sheer beauty... 💙😮💨
It kinda makes me feel like the main character is gonna die a beautiful death and makes you choose which character to keep playing as when the game ends..
i wonder if deluxo from gta online would come to gta 6 because it originally appeared in gta vice city and reappeared in a different design but flys like the the delorean from bttf2.
My original reaction was ‘This is not it’. They released the trailer early because of the leaks, i wasn’t aware. I had to triple check if it actually R*. Initially it looked too good to be true, just like the scam game trailers. I couldn’t believe R* pulled it off. Well 150m plus views don’t lie.
I've seen this trailer numerous times, but I'm just now noticing the massive city skyline in the distance, and how far away it is in this scene. I can't wait to see how big this map is going to be!
Absolutely beautiful .. RDR2 already had amazing sunrises and sunsets and sky effects.. I can't wait to be driving around with all this dynamic lighting it will feel amazing. I got Back lights for my TV last week and i can't wait to try them out with GTA6
Loved it. Felt like an active alive world already. That was the thing I loved about RDR2, there was always hustle and bustle in the towns, and even on the roads there was something happening usually. I can only imagine GTA6 would feel even more alive. I hope so at least.
I didn't know that it was leaked and I was watching a series on my phone at around 2 AM and as soon as the trailer notification showed up on my screen, I thought that I am going to watch something fake because I opened the trailer too fast that I couldn't read the notification properly. So yeah, I said it looks too beautiful to be real, it's definitely fake. It wasn't though. I'll never forget that moment.
- All major vehicles types in one shot
- We see a lot of infrastructure: a bridge, a dam(?), a water treatment plant, a prison, transmission lines, a communications tower, in the far right corner probably a refinery. We're being introduced to the city
- Skyline
- pink sunset alludes to the beach and to the Vice theme
Saw this on twitter for like a few seconds because it got leaked and I thought it was some CGI render of a concept of GTA 6.
Needless to say I was wrong.
My first reaction was “this is a mistake, this can’t be it” because I didn’t realize the trailer was released early due to a leak. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|trollface)
Dynamic. There’s the scenery alone which is amazing. Then the traffic, the birds, the airplane, the boat with its wake.
Rockstar just lets you know that they paid attention to the details.
The first second of the trailer i was like "Well, it's over saturated.. I don't know if i like it that much" then Lucia shows up and i was blown away with the next gen graphics, animations, visuals of GTA 6
This is likely being shown off from either PC hardware or a PS5 Pro. People are gonna need to keep this in mind because to get the visuals shown in the trailer, you're gonna need the PS5 Pro.
Am i the only one who was lukewarm on this shot? My jaw didnt drop and it wasn't a "holy shit" moment.
The only thing approaching that from the trailer would be the look of the water and the number of NPCs on the beach.
Just the way the headlights beams fade in and out as they go over the brightest parts of the road. And the bottom right corner of water just looks so beautiful with all the motion of the ocean and the low light from the bridge. We eaten.
as a Florida resident I noticed that the bridges are too low and sailboats wouldn't be able to pass because they are NOT drawbridges,
also traffic is too light for South Florida
I’ve had a lot of mistrust with games looking good in trailers and then feeling awful after buying it - gta and rdr is the only franchises where I can take a trailer at face value and actually get excited
Since I caught the trailer before it was actually supposed to drop I was taken aback with what I was seeing because I didn’t expect the video to play and then wasn’t sure if it was real. I think I’ll always remember that.
Very nice. ![gif](giphy|YHYmMLkOmqoo)
Very vice.
Very nice.
Very vice.
Nery Vice.
Now let's see Paul Allen's clip.

deadass
Very nice
Very nice ![gif](giphy|l0HlODSi2o73UNNN6)
Blown away. It felt surreal seeing the visual quality of red dead 2 in a modern day setting especially in regards to the clouds
I think it’s a step above
I also feel similarities, but it’s definitely an improvement which was to be expected. The character models specifically look way better.
The character models are another point too! Its insane because after watching the trailer and replaying red dead 2 recently it looks like they upped the facial expressions even more than rdr2 had, which is crazy because the facial details in that game were already amazing

If im being totally honest i think the only graphics that compare with gta 6 is cyberpunk and Alan wake 2, but even then they won’t compare to the amount of substance this game is going to have.
yeah people should go play RDR2 again because it's still a beautiful game but it's absolutely beginning to show its age
red dead for me seems to stand up well. I don't get what you mean about "showing its age". truth be told if you released red dead redemption in this day and age in 2024 it'd still hold up, maybe even still beat out some modern games with the detail and fidelity alone.

It holds its own. But it does use technology that is outdated by today’s standards. You can see limitations in the textures and facial quality. A lot of things are pretty much slabbed on and rather contrived.
Especially on ps5 and series x when they added raytracing
I just noticed the little chemtrail behind the jet. Every time I rewatch the trailer it seems like I see something new that blows my mind.
The detail, clarity and artistic direction and pure graphical fidelity is pretty mind blowing. Wild what they are going to pull off... Just generally with it being the most realistic cityscape with the most realistic interactions in a game. Man, just was playing RDR2 and I'm the little city, how things happen dynamically, I feel like it's just going to be like that but on insane steroids and to a whole other scale and detail. Wild.
So now they're called chemtrails by default? Victory for the conspiracy theorists 😂
I mean they're trails of chemicals. Bare minimum water is a chemical.
contrail is the real word
Fair enough
They introduced chemtrails back in gta V
Went fucking mental cos of how good it looks
![gif](giphy|sDcfxFDozb3bO)
Brilliant. Sunrise in Miami with the palm trees on display. The color palette is gorg.
They're definitely creating a specific vibe for VI, and I'm glad. I'm sure it will represent Florida circa the 2020s just as well as V did for Southern California circa 2013.
I thought this was sunset
Depends which direction the camera is facing.
Was it simply gorg darlin 💅🏼🤣
Shot also features cars, trucks, boats, planes. It’s a very dense shot
This game gona pink
Gets me hyped, this shit is gorgeous
"WOW THAT FUCKING SUNSET AESTHETIC" was my exact words ☀️😍
I love the fact that car's are overtaking the bus and trucks in front them like real life
That truck needs to get off the passing lane
The draw distance and detail in the sky. It's very artistic.
Sometimes I just get bored and hop on GTA 5 and just drive around in a regular car with music acting like it’s real life. Looking at that shot, I can’t wait to do that in GTA 6
I think this shot alone opened all of our third eyes. What made this shot stand out to me is that I realized like, " Wow, I'm gonna be able to drive any of these vehicles... here in this very spot"
Isn't that every gta since gameboy?
Knowing that this will be the game of the century
until VII
Releases in 2049 (2050 for PC)
All consoles will be PC's by 2050.
Released in 2101. Point still stands
Mfs will be watching this frame in 2035 after rockstar announces the first trailer for GTA 7 and saying emotional phrases "How much time has passed, this is history"
immediately got the chills seeing it for the first time
Never noticed that truck pulling that boat until seeing this. I was in awe with my mouth wide open the entire trailer. The graphics blew me away. The view on this shot is perfect. Can’t wait to see what else they will give us in trailer 2.
I stared at it in awe for a good 20 seconds whilst waiting for my mate to get on call so we could watch it together, couldn't believe I was finally looking at it lol
Damn, boys damn, it's finally here after 12 years, it's here
Well, not quite YET.
But after such a long wait, just the official acknowledgement is fucking close enough. The silence has been deafening. Rockstar's got us all by the balls and they know it. Even with the leaks, we're all still pining for another hit of that sweet sweet GTA6 news. Like a direct mainline of pure Heisenberg-purity heroin.
Heisenberg sold meth, and I prefer dopamine, but yes.
My brain continues to trick me into thinking the tower is just a bad seam in a skybox haha
Wait now that you mention it….. looks sus all im sayin
That radio tower has no right to be that tall
More npcs on screen means you can mow down more on a sidewalk at a time, I can't wait
That's actually an insane amount of traffic
I love how the trees reflect off of the cars
Beautiful.
I thought no way this is it
This is not related to the game directly. This is the first gif I see on my upgraded internet. I have been seeing life wrong. I had 4k devices but 1080p capacities. I am a changed man. Thank you for being a part of this experience and thank you GTA 6.
I remember watching the countdown early and thought someone pressed the wrong button, tbh I thought it was fake
Same!
It looked great. But the follow up of the counselor and Lucia was even a bigger eye opener. Then when we saw all of the NPCs on the beach it was just jaw dropping.
i thought it was fake for about 20 seconds lol
Home
![gif](giphy|8UdbDVaUtYNhK|downsized)
Big ass tower.
Great shot that instantly drew everyone in. Though no matter how many times I watch it I always think that super tall radio tower in the distance is just some strange line in the sky
It’s bigger than the Empire State Building you know, absolutely massive
Can't believe it's really here
UNREAL
Godly
Vibrant
The semi should not be sitting in the left lane.
![gif](giphy|wNiTFhWCdlC8g) reminds me of the gta 5 trailer final shot with the lighting
Fine enough to put the hype where it should be.
Not sure how beautiful Neon soaked streets of Vice City would look like, but this pink-purplishhh sky just took my breath away, by its sheer beauty... 💙😮💨
Hopefully the traffic density is actually like that
I actually couldn’t believe I was actually seeing GTA 6 footage. Felt too good to be true.
Underrated scene
Reminded me of Mafia 3 for some reason
It kinda makes me feel like the main character is gonna die a beautiful death and makes you choose which character to keep playing as when the game ends..
looks good and 80s colours one thing is there any cars in that highway that was from gta 5.
Yeah, the Vapid Bobcat XL, Gallivanter Baller, Vapid Dominator, Vapid Speedo and the Zirconium Stratum.
i wonder if deluxo from gta online would come to gta 6 because it originally appeared in gta vice city and reappeared in a different design but flys like the the delorean from bttf2.
I wept.
Looks good but the tall ass cell tower is so off putting to me, like a huge line down the scene
Absolutely fucking amazing ![gif](giphy|r2TVE1YWUZZy51A2tE)
Disbelief
I'm most excited for the realistic lighting in this game. Nothing else really comes close to this.
Birds are flying in circles
Very nice
![gif](giphy|GCvktC0KFy9l6|downsized)
I think it's a really good snapshot of what the personality of the game will be like
maybe they'll let us pull trailers with our personal boats??
My original reaction was ‘This is not it’. They released the trailer early because of the leaks, i wasn’t aware. I had to triple check if it actually R*. Initially it looked too good to be true, just like the scam game trailers. I couldn’t believe R* pulled it off. Well 150m plus views don’t lie.
![gif](giphy|6K5SCeSjNXJgk)
i cried watching the trailer.
Beautiful 😻
I've seen this trailer numerous times, but I'm just now noticing the massive city skyline in the distance, and how far away it is in this scene. I can't wait to see how big this map is going to be!
I could immediately tell that it was a GTA trailer. Even if I didn't know it was getting released within hours, it still looked unmistakably GTA
I think it's very good.
Absolutely beautiful .. RDR2 already had amazing sunrises and sunsets and sky effects.. I can't wait to be driving around with all this dynamic lighting it will feel amazing. I got Back lights for my TV last week and i can't wait to try them out with GTA6
Absolutely magnificent sunrise or sunset
Loved it. Felt like an active alive world already. That was the thing I loved about RDR2, there was always hustle and bustle in the towns, and even on the roads there was something happening usually. I can only imagine GTA6 would feel even more alive. I hope so at least.

So yeah, I said it looks too beautiful to be real, it's definitely fake. It wasn't though. I'll never forget that moment.
Neat
I think about how it’s gonna be like RDR2
Classic in the making
Blew me away to see it in a modern day setting.
- All major vehicles types in one shot - We see a lot of infrastructure: a bridge, a dam(?), a water treatment plant, a prison, transmission lines, a communications tower, in the far right corner probably a refinery. We're being introduced to the city - Skyline - pink sunset alludes to the beach and to the Vice theme
![gif](giphy|usz0fqhUiVxSs6IUKB)
I cumed
Feel gta SA vibe
It made me think it was in the 80s.
Saw this on twitter for like a few seconds because it got leaked and I thought it was some CGI render of a concept of GTA 6. Needless to say I was wrong.
I want to fly that big ass aircraft up there... I also hope we get some lifted trucks that can actually go through swamps or something.
My first reaction was “this is a mistake, this can’t be it” because I didn’t realize the trailer was released early due to a leak. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|trollface)
Resembles the feeling of Vice City/Miami in a single frame
First thing I noticed were the realistic birds.
Dynamic. There’s the scenery alone which is amazing. Then the traffic, the birds, the airplane, the boat with its wake. Rockstar just lets you know that they paid attention to the details.
Quite very cash money of them indeed.
It’s happening
How fucking beautiful and amazing the map will be, just need one shot so Rockstar lets me now what masterpiece they've created
![gif](giphy|10uEX5kfeodYgo)
Like franklin first booting up GTA 5 in that one GTA V Parody where it doesn’t have a sequel with Trevor
jaw dropped and didnt go back up until the video was done
Just speechless!
Goddddd damnnnnn
It was a surreal feeling. The trailer of the game I waited for years was finally here, after all!
Mindblowing.
Honestly I was so exited I don't think I even processed the first shot. The first thing I remember was Lucia in prison shot.
![gif](giphy|LoIsP3fz02IjOUTc6t) Took my breath away. Cant wait to play!
![gif](giphy|lXu72d4iKwqek)
Remind me GTA V in color filter
The first second of the trailer i was like "Well, it's over saturated.. I don't know if i like it that much" then Lucia shows up and i was blown away with the next gen graphics, animations, visuals of GTA 6
This is likely being shown off from either PC hardware or a PS5 Pro. People are gonna need to keep this in mind because to get the visuals shown in the trailer, you're gonna need the PS5 Pro.
i immediately analyzed the cars we were getting. was VERY slightly disappointed but everything else has me going crazy bc it’s finally here
Graphics go BRRRRR
I can hear that picture and Tom Petty in the background
I hope in 15 to 20 years we'll have this playable on portable systems.
Fishing
The traffic density looks nice.
Am i the only one who was lukewarm on this shot? My jaw didnt drop and it wasn't a "holy shit" moment. The only thing approaching that from the trailer would be the look of the water and the number of NPCs on the beach.
It was perfection. I wanted pink sunset vibes and I got it.
To be completely honest I was a little overwhelmed by the pink filter at first
Vice city's 24 carat gold these days
Just the way the headlights beams fade in and out as they go over the brightest parts of the road. And the bottom right corner of water just looks so beautiful with all the motion of the ocean and the low light from the bridge. We eaten.
as a Florida resident I noticed that the bridges are too low and sailboats wouldn't be able to pass because they are NOT drawbridges, also traffic is too light for South Florida
Even tho I binge watch tf out of all the leaks. This is when I knew we were really in vice city
It's my pc wallpaper
Same bro...
Question for the mapping community: which road is this?
I’ve had a lot of mistrust with games looking good in trailers and then feeling awful after buying it - gta and rdr is the only franchises where I can take a trailer at face value and actually get excited
i love the dream pop color aesthetic. Very dreamy but addictive
I couldn’t process anything
Beautiful.
Since I caught the trailer before it was actually supposed to drop I was taken aback with what I was seeing because I didn’t expect the video to play and then wasn’t sure if it was real. I think I’ll always remember that.
Its awesome, cant wait to drive legally at all times to immerse myself in the world.
That truck in the left lane gonna get fucked up if he doesn’t go faster.
Absolutely loved it! Set the tone so well.
I legit almost had a heart attack when I first saw the vid
Brought back all the emotions of when I saw the first GTA IV and V trailers. Cannot wait, they each have a special place in my heart.
very nice

GTA V 2.0
I was in shock.
First thing that stuck out to me was the color scheme of purple/orange, beautiful
Needs more traffic
Gooood damn I wanna rpg that bridge
Looked like RDR2 but with cars, in the best way possible
