The release of the second *Grand Theft Auto VI* trailer has left fans buzzing, not only for its cinematic quality and expansive glimpse into the game world but also due to some skepticism surrounding its technical presentation. One detail in particular—the small print at the end stating that the footage was captured on a PlayStation 5—has sparked debate among players who wonder whether it might have actually been running on more powerful hardware like the upcoming PS5 Pro or a high-end PC.

However, Rockstar Games has now officially addressed the speculation head-on. In a clear and direct social media statement, the developer confirmed that *GTA 6* Trailer 2 was captured “entirely in-game” from a standard PlayStation 5 console. More impressively, the trailer is composed of “equal parts gameplay and cutscenes,” further fueling excitement about what the final product could deliver.

Rockstar's official statement:

“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 the visual fidelity and complexity of the trailer even more astounding. The level of detail showcased—ranging from dynamic weather effects to realistic character animations—raises the bar significantly, especially considering it’s running on a console that will be over five years old by the time *GTA 6* launches on May 26, 2026.

Naturally, this has led to deeper analysis from the community, particularly around which segments of the trailer are actual gameplay. One moment that stands out is when Jason enters his apartment—an action that appears seamless enough to suggest a live gameplay sequence rather than a scripted cutscene.
