Of course, the whole trailer couldn’t possibly be remade in GTA: Vice City as it’s full of original cutscenes, but the video does include shot-for-shot comparisons for a bunch of the main locations, including the beach, jail, ships, nightclub, apartment building, gas station, and rooftop hangout. As you might expect, there are a lot less hard lines in the new footage, but what really struck me was just how much more detailed everything is.
Due to the processing power ofconfirmed GTA 6 release platforms PS5 and Xbox Series X, Rockstar is able to populate Vice City with more of literally everything. In every scene, the new game has way more people, cars, trees, buildings, lights, shadows, clouds - you name it. Not to dog on a bonafide classic, but there’s no doubt Vice City will not only look better than it ever has, but alsofeelmore alive due to simply having more going on at once.
Not excited enough?Rockstar says GTA 6 will “push the limits of what’s possible” in open-world games.
