Rockstar confirms the GTA VI trailer comprised of equal parts gameplay and cutscenes

Rockstar Games : Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer 2 was captured entirely in-game from a PlayStation 5, comprised of equal parts gameplay and cutscenes.

italiangamer2d ago

PlayStation 5 directly mentioned on the official Rockstar's Twitter account, and people still questioning if Sony has the marketing rights or not 😂.
By the way when GTA 6 comes out in 1 year the PS5 will have reached the 100 million units mark 🤯.

Scissorman1d 17h ago

And its release is going to be a system seller for Sony. I wouldn't be surprised if it pushes the PS5 passed the PS4 total of 118 million units next year.

Aloymetal1d 15h ago

No doubt about that, another gen with 100+ mil in the bag. This game is gonna sell like crazy just like the PS5.

1nsomniac1d 8h ago

Just listen to the state of you losers.

That’s not me trying to bash you, that’s genuine pity for you.

neutralgamer19921d 12h ago

I think this is the first GTA where Sony doesn't have to pay at all or a lot for exclusive marketing. What choice does R* have for partners? One console sells all the games while other console has gamers who consume their content through a subscription service (not hating on either just stating facts)

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 sold more than 90% on PS5. The sales breakdown just gives Sony a huge advantage when negotiating deals. Their platform sell games.

Eonjay20h ago

Well it is known that R* is adamantly against putting their day one releases on a subscription service... this makes sense though given their expected volume.

InUrFoxHole1d 1h ago

Wow console sales... Fascinating!

Eonjay19h ago

While Xboxs sales have been poor, it's good to see consumer interest in consoles can still be very high.

High PS5/Switch sales is a good thing and it really should be celebrated.

thorstein2d ago

Of course it did. Who says it didn't?

Grilla1d 18h ago

Digital Foundry. Said it was all cutscenes.

tombfan1d 14h ago

They just analyze from what they see... Rockstar in the other hand well... Erm... They are making the game and all the content for it. So I guess they're more trustworthy.

TheKingKratos1d 14h ago

DF said it ... It must be true then

I mean who in their right mind would trust Rockstar who never released a trailer for a game and didn't exceeded it on release /s

thorstein1d 14h ago

DF isn't what they used to be.

repsahj1d 14h ago

DF is always guessing nowadays. Look what they did to Switch 2. All guessing, and they all guess it wrong.

Ashunderfire861d 7h ago

Digital Foundry are not the end all be all. They are definitely not the game developers, I trust more than YouTubers trying to get views. Digital Foundry was called out back when they defended the first Halo Infinite trailer, blaming the bad graphics on lighting🤣

They were very wrong about the power of the Switch 2 as well. No I stick with what the developers say thank you very much.

Tacoboto1d 7h ago

Did you actually watch DF?

It was a long 40+ minute video, of them showing how it is real rendering. Reducing that to them having "Said it was all cutscenes" is a flat out lie.

Bathyj19h ago

Digital foundry make educated guesses. They don't know as much as people give them credit for. They are not the end all and be all. There are definately moments of gameplay in the trailer. You can tell from the transitions.

I mean you can tell if you’ve played GTA games, like the walking into the home is a cutscene to gameplay transition, the weight lifting is gameplay, the first person driving view is, and the riding the motorcycle while a plane is behind you is as well. There’s probably more, but it’s impressive that it’s difficult to tell.

The other thing I noticed is in previous GTA trailers they’ve shown missions but used cinematic camera angles on them for the trailer. So maybe the swamp chase is gameplay.

Man, this game… my hype is through the roof. I’m just hoping what we see isn’t going to be massively downgraded. The fact that it’s shown on PS5 makes me think this is really it.

fr0sty1d 15h ago

GTA has always used in-engine cutscenes, so there isn't any difference in quality between the cutscenes and gameplay to begin with.

Cockney1d 12h ago (Edited 1d 12h ago )

Of course there is, cutscenes always outshine gameplay simply because they have more power to play with, no ai just scripted, yeah they always whack up the quality for cutscenes

Terry_B1d 10h ago

GTA 2 had movie cutscenes.

MatrixxGT1d 15h ago

I know it’s just a trailer but I think this is the first game that feels “next gen” since the whole ps5 era began 5yrs ago.

LarVanian1d 15h ago

Spider-man 2 (excluding the launch glitches and bugs) gave me somewhat of a next gen feel.
I get what you mean however. It's a pity we are only getting that feeling in what is most likely the final stage of this gen.

anast1d 15h ago

Demon Souls, Spiderman 2, Ratchet and Clank, Astrobot, Returnal...all feel this gen. This is 1 game a year.

MatrixxGT1d 12h ago

1 game a year is pathetic compared to Sonys track record though. Really feels as if I could have kept my ps4 pro all this time and not miss much outside the benefits of a SSD.
Hopefully with this and intergalactic the next few years can really start cooking.

anast1d 12h ago

@Matrix

Anyone the uses the word 'pathetic' in a discussion like this should take a break to realign those chakras. Then did through some history and comeback with an actual response.

anast1d 1h ago

I can't even call that naive ignorance at this point. Laziness perhaps.

PanicMechanic23h ago(Edited 23h ago)

Yea Spiderman 2… game blew me away with the sandman fight on ps5… at 360p resolution🤣 it was more of an iteration on Spiderman ps4. Nothing about it is all that amazing. Plus looking back, that game actually sucked balls and was a huge disappointment for me after falling in love with Spiderman 1 and MM

Returnal for sound design. Other than that, it runs at 1080p on ps5.

Astrobot? Yes ratchet? Definitely yes. Demons souls? Hellllll yes

That's because most games released till very recently was mostly cross gen and most major 1st party developers didn't release a true ps5 game that was build from the ground up

this gen sucks

InUrFoxHole1d 1h ago

Yeah but this game is gonna sell consoles.

italiangamer1d 14h ago

This gen is going to last a long time, look at the PS4, it's 12 years old and games are still announced every week for it.
The same will happen with the PS5 so I'm not worried at all.

MatrixxGT1d 12h ago

Yeah I think we have just hit the point of diminishing returns as far as hardware goes. Growing up through all the gens it was super cool seeing the new generation games and how much of a generational leap games became and with this transition it’s been pretty blah outside SSDs reducing load times.

repsahj1d 14h ago

Demons Souls remake looks next gen to me during it's launch.

anast1d 12h ago

They ignore anything that doesn't align with stupidity.

Another year of this...Why couldn't they just release the game on time?

chicken_in_the_corn3h ago

Because the gaming community didn't want it to release this year. It was only delayed because of the massive amounts of pressure they were under to do so. It's been happening for years.

I mean, considering the amount of time between the two. It better be a massive upgrade. Especially with the amount of money Rockstar raked in from GTA Online.

MDTunkown17h ago

Most of scenes are pre rendered

andy8516h ago

Literally none are. If you know anything about rockstar they don't do that. Confirmed by themselves that this is all in-game

MDTunkown15h ago

Is that why first gta5 trailer looked better than the final product? Or is that why same happened with rdr2 ?
Rockstar told 50% are cutscenes and rockstars always used better models during cutscenes than in game.
You legit seems to know rockstar very well.

andy853h ago(Edited 3h ago)

It didn't though? And neither did RDR2. In fact it was actually the opposite. What's with the hate boner? If you don't like it just avoid the topic

generic-user-name14h ago

You're either lying or just don't know what pre rendered means. Pre rendered means that if you change the character's appearance (clothes, accessories etc) they wouldn't show up in the cutscenes because they were already made and aren't being rendered in real time. This is something that doesn't happen in Rockstar games.

"Is that why first gta5 trailer looked better than the final product? Or is that why same happened with rdr2 ?"

In fact some of the scenes in RDR2 looked better in the retail version than at launched.

anast1h ago

The OP is taking the shot-gun approach: say a bunch of random tripe and see if something sticks.

repsahj3h ago

Damn! GTAV graphics are still awesome! But, I am so excited to play GTA6!!!
