Rockstar Games confirmed GTA 6's second trailer was fully captured using PlayStation 5 hardware. Here's what the trailer reveals about the game's presentation and hidden details fans may have overlooked.

GTA 6 Second Trailer Details

Fully Captured on PS5

Grand Theft Auto VI continues generating excitement with its latest trailer revealing stunning visual fidelity. Rockstar Games clarified via Twitter on May 8th that the entire trailer was recorded directly from PlayStation 5 hardware.

The developer stated it was "captured entirely in-game from a PlayStation 5, composed of equal parts gameplay and cutscenes." The unprecedented visual quality led some fans to question which segments represented actual gameplay. While Rockstar traditionally renders cutscenes in-engine, the graphical fidelity makes distinguishing between gameplay and scripted sequences challenging.

Speculation continues whether this footage represents standard PS5 or enhanced PS5 Pro performance. Rockstar has yet to clarify which hardware version was used, leaving this question unanswered for now.

Hidden Details in the Trailer

The trailer contains numerous details requiring careful observation. Longtime fans spotted the return of Phil Cassidy, the series' recurring arms dealer, though his character model appears significantly updated from previous appearances.

While his physical appearance has evolved, Phil retains his signature personality and continues running the Ammu-Nation firearm stores. Eagle-eyed viewers also spotted a PS5 console and controller in one scene - likely confirming the system used for trailer capture.

The trailer potentially confirms the return of the Gym System last seen in GTA: San Andreas. Protagonist Jason Duval appears working out on a beach, suggesting possible character customization through physical training.

Additional activities shown include golf, fishing, scuba diving, hunting, basketball, kayaking, and fight clubs. Rockstar's confirmation that all trailer content represents in-game footage suggests these features may all be playable.

As fans continue uncovering more Easter eggs and references daily, anticipation builds despite the recent delay announcement. GTA 6 is now scheduled for release on May 26, 2026, for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. For ongoing coverage, check our related articles below.
