Rockstar has released yet another in-game clip from GTA 6, and like yesterday’s footage, fans can’t quite believe it’s real.
This morning, the Instagram account “Only in Dade” (which posts real videos from around Miami, Florida) shared a video of several flashy cars driving around. However, this footage isn’t real life; it’s actually GTA 6 footage.
The page posted footage of these cars sitting on GTA 6’s version of Ocean Drive yesterday while a group of NPCs observed them. Yesterday’s footage was actually an in-game recreation of a real video that was posted in October, showing Rockstar’s real-life marketing efforts in Miami. Presumably, the new video posted today is also a recreation of a real video from when the real versions of these cars were zooming around the city.
Although the footage doesn’t show much, it is an extremely impressive showcase of GTA 6’s graphical fidelity. When the first clip dropped yesterday, many thought it was AI or some kind of render. However, it has since been confirmed as authentic gameplay and was reposted by Rockstar itself on Instagram. Fans have reacted to both clips in awe of the visuals, noting that the game has really outdone itself.
“Absolutely insane this is in-game,” said one fan in response to the new footage. “This game isn’t real, bro; there HAS to be a trap somewhere. There is no f**king way,” said another fan in disbelief.
Some have even joked that if this is really how the final game looks, they’re more than happy to play it at 30fps. It’s clear that Rockstar traded higher performance in favor of visual fidelity, and while that may not be what some fans want, it is inevitably going to result in one of the most graphically advanced games we have ever seen.
Today officially marks exactly one week until GTA 6’s release. The game is available to preload right now and it is tracking to have one of the biggest launches in entertainment history. Xbox and PlayStation both confirmed that the game is the most preordered title in the history of their respective stores, and analysts have estimated that the game has already surpassed $1 billion in sales ahead of launch.
Speaking of launch, some game developers are giving their staff the week off to play the game. Palworld developer Pocketpair is one such studio happy to provide extra holiday for the occasion. IGN’s latest coverage includes speculation about a potential beloved legacy character from a previous game hiding in the latest GTA 6 trailer.
