Fans are already picking apart the GTA VI trailer, specifically how enormous the open world looks.
Rockstar Games did the unthinkable and released the trailer for GTA VI a day early. It was supposed to be shared today, 5 December, but was leaked beforehand, forcing the developer’s hand.

We’re not complaining though, considering this has been arguably the most heavily anticipated video game trailer of all time, expected to break all the records in a similar fashion to GTA V’s trailer debut.
After picking through the trailer for all the details, it’s safe to say it looks absolutely fantastic and while that 2025 release date inevitably stings a bit, you can tell it’ll be worth the wait. Unfortunately, PC players will be waiting a bit longer than Xbox and PlayStation owners, as the trailer makes no mention of PC being a supported platform at launch.
Arguably the trailer’s standout moments were the aerial shots of the open world. GTA V, and later Red Dead Redemption 2, pushed the boundaries of open-world gaming prompting big expectations for GTA VI since it’ll be able to take full advantage of new-gen hardware.
It doesn’t look like it’s going to disappoint either, as the sheer amount of different areas and biomes is astounding. Vice City is the confirmed destination for the next Grand Theft Auto game, but it’s obviously changed a lot since we last saw it and mostly in scale. It’s seemingly expanded to the size of a US state, which supports previous gameplay leaks and rumours that there’d be near-endless amounts of terrain to explore.
What makes it even more impressive is the expressive of the world and its inhabitants, as the trailer showcased hyper-realistic NPC behaviour with what looks like hundreds of people going about their daily lives, which you’ll likely be able to interact with.
GTA VI is set to blow us all away sometime in 2025, though a specific release date hasn’t been shared as of yet.
