Trailer Comparison: GTA 5 vs GTA 6

Over the 12-year gap since its release, it’s clear that the visuals and graphics displayed in the GTA 6 trailer surpass those of GTA 5.

Notably, while the first GTA 5 trailer only supported 720p resolution, the latest trailer from Rockstar Games can run in stunning 4k resolution.

In the world Rockstar creates for each game, there are notable differences in their trailers. GTA 6 trailer introduces animals like dogs, alligators, and flamingos, something that GTA 5 didn’t feature.
