GTA VI finally got a second trailer, and with it 50-60 screenshots. Here is the trailer:



And some incredible screenshots here too:

I am way too hyped. What's another year?

The trailer looks as solid as it gets. I'll be patient though and happily wait even beyond next years' May, as it usually pays to play games a few months after the actual release, having a pack of patches already applied.

I think Rockstar releases overall are the exception to that rule. I was a day one player of GTA IV, Red Dead Redemption, GTA V, and RDR 2. They all ran perfectly well. The 2026 release date, and the way this game already looks, I think this game will come across as quite solid as well. There may be some Online issues, but I am not that keen on that mode anyway.

I'm a little apprehensive. It looks a little close to GTA V in graphics. I think they've gone back to the GTA III/VC/SA/LCS/VCS method of simply hacking the previous game into a new form.
III/VC/SA hid it well, but that came with drawbacks. SA especially is a bit of a trainwreck, but it manages to hide it well.

It looks a very large endeavour, even for Playstation 5 & Xbox Series X and if Rockstar thinks I am paying around what is suspected to be upwards of $100 at present for anything less than a stable 50 fps, they've got it wrong.
From the trailer quality it may be a sign they're not backporting this one to PS4/XboxOne or making a Series S version. At least not for a while and lots of tearing it apart.

Plus heavens knows how long it'll be before they around to a PC port, and hopefully it won't be as disastrous as the LCS PS2 port was, or the GTA IV port on PC... or the Definitive Edition. People are quick to forget Rockstars failures, or at least for Definitive Edition, failures that happened on their watch and what they (you would hope...) knew of and took care of the IP enough to double check before OKing that for release.

I am almost offended.

The step I see from GTA V to this is akin to the step from San Andreas to IV, the two generations they called 3D Universe and HD Universe. This game looks photorealistic in some instances, and I struggle to think of a single AAA game ever looking remotely as good. I'll share one screenshot in particular that caught my eye. This is in-game, taken with a standard PlayStation 5. There are many more on the website, showing very realistic lighting, shadows, impressive draw distances, and busy traffic and attention to detail even in the background.

I dunno, it just aint ticking any boxes for me. Maybe i am just gutted it appears to be multiple protagonists again like V instead of a single one. Maybe i am left with a sour taste of 13 years and -this- is what we get? Is it because of Rockstars repeated failures to correct issues, there's errors in (PC) GTA IV, & never releasing an updated version of LCS for PS2 and left us with a barely 12fps at times experience. It is also almost a guarantee they will do the same in VI as they did in V, and develop a GTA online that immediately drops the single player experience, and all the extra updates/dlcs are online only, and ignore single player experiences again.

Rockstar is dangerously close to falling into the list of "never buy" where Electronic Arts, Bethesda & Ubisoft have found themselves, because of Rockstars repeated errors & not fixing. These trailers for GTA VI? Ain't ticking no boxes to say "yeah, this is worth 13 years, and them ignoring all their other games with known glaring errors, and spending (reportedly) $2bn on, this is worth them forgetting to check in on how the Definitive Edition was going and letting it be a car crash"

That's just my two cents, Rockstar ain't winning me over until they fix their operations. Glitzy trailers might work on others, but my memory isn't wiped as soon as I see a trailer.

I think the game looks amazing and I'm very excited for it! Finally seeing a more modern version of Vice City will be fun, having visited Florida in reallife will also effect me when I play this I suspect...
I will however agree somewhat with GTA V being way too focused on the Online mode these days, and I hope they don't do that to VI.

GTA VI looks pretty impressive to my eyes, though I’m going to need to buy a new Xbox before it comes out!

In other news, I’m posting this from a plane above Canada. Isn’t technology amazing?

EDIT: Foiled by the nightly backup page, I’d forgotten about that…

I must say, my last distant holiday (assumption being anything outside of Europe is distant) involved a trip to Florida, in part due to the hype of GTA VI release having been commenced

EDIT: Removed the Pictures...

This is the result of a balloonflight I made, above the east of the Netherlands.
My mother had it on her bucketlist. So we went. Nowhere.
We were heading nowhere. It was a balloontrip, we were heading wherever the wind took us.

Unforgettable. Amazing, forever in my memory and on pictures, as you can see above.

This post has no reason, neither there was a route to follow.
It's a balloontrip.

That was naive of you! With the rise of nationalism, there's also a rise in anti-LGBT movements and anti-females rights. That's why even countries like the "super progressive" Sweden is now talking about abortions which have been a fundamental right for 50 years.

it's interesting feeling to read that in 2025, with all the cargo of later years on our neck/shoulders
