This week saw Rockstar release the long-awaited second official trailer for Grand Theft Auto VI, giving fans just under three-minutes of brand-new content to get stuck into.
Giving us a look at what the developers have been up to since the first trailer was released back in December 2023, it is clear to see that Grand Theft Auto VI will be revolutionary when it comes to graphics and details.
Check out the brand-new trailer for GTA VI below!
Viewers got to see the state of Leonida in all its glory - and the trailer gave us the opportunity to learn more about the new protagonist duo, Jason and Lucia, as well as the widee cast of eccentric characters who we will meet alongside them.

As you can probably already imagine, hardcore fans are already diving into this new trailer frame-by-frame to see the details that Rockstar have added to GTA VI.
As a result, one fan over on r/GTA6 has an interesting bit of information surrounding the game’s expansive open-world map.
“The draw distance is insane,” they posted, alongside a screenshot taken from the trailer.
“Usually far away models are reduced to low polygon and no shadows, but here we can see a fairly detailed object like cars, traffic signs, and lamp poles so far away and even their shadows. This is somewhat accurate to gameplay because you can see that the far away trees are low quality.”

Put simply, this suggests the true scale of GTA VI’s open-world as, despite no confirmation from Rockstar as of yet, it looks to be the biggest Grand Theft Auto map of all time.
This would make sense based on what Rockstar did confirm yesterday thanks to its brand-new GTA VI web page.
It reveals that the game will include multiple ‘main map’ locations such as Vice City, Leonida Keys, Grassrivers, Port Gellhorn, Ambrosia, and Mount Kalaga National Park.
Not only that but another eagle-eyed fan noticed a license plate that could hint that Leonida may not be the only state we get to visit.

Grand Theft Auto VI will be released on 26 May, 2026 for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S.
