- Brand new GTA 6 footage has been released
- The footage shows Vice City at sunset, and fans think it looks "glorious"
- One fan says it "almost looks like real footage"
Rockstar Games has released a brand new look at Vice City in Grand Theft Auto 6.
In case you weren't around when the internet exploded yesterday, the studio finally announced that GTA 6 pre-orders will officially begin on June 25, although we still don't have a price.
The news arrived alongside the official cover art reveal trailer and an updated website featuring new artwork of GTA 6 protagonists Lucia and Jason, as well as a dynamic image on the landing page showcasing Vice City at sunset.
It looks pretty impressive, and the sprawling city looks highly detailed, with helicopters flying overhead and boats sailing across the waterfront.
While the footage is quite literally seconds long, it offers a sneak peek at what players will be able to freely explore when the game arrives later this year, and fans are eating up every single crumb.
"IT LOOKS GLORIOUS!!" said one fan on Reddit. "This is the most realistic and beautiful night shot of VC we have gotten so far. I swear it didn't look this good in previous media."
"Holy s***, this almost looks like real footage," another said.

Meanwhile, some fans are suggesting that the footage doesn't look "polished", with one user pointing out the missing ferris wheel reflection in the background.
"Damnit OP JUST DELAYED THE GAME," one fan joked in response, while another said, "Yep game is unplayable."
"It just shows the limitations still with this generation," a fan suggested, "maybe the next gen version will be able to have the reflections in the distance as well."
Others are concerned about how the game will perform on current-gen consoles, considering the graphical fidelity.
"Looks like the raytraced water cuts off at a distance. The pop will be disgusting," one user said.
Following the pre-order and cover reveal announcements, Rockstar also updated its icon and banner on social media to match the game's theme. Now it's pink and purple, instead of the classic yellow fans are familiar with.
GTA 6 will officially launch on November 19, 2026, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and Series S. A PC release has not yet been announced.
