Rockstar Games has just released the first trailer for the new Grand Theft Auto VI. Thanks to it, we can see with our own eyes how the game looks in terms of technical aspects. It is important because it answers our concerns about the performance of previous parts of the game series, which we have been worried about for years. Thanks to it, each of us, the players and fans of the title, can now see if the developers have fixed technical problems with the engine in previous installments before the release of the game.
Digital Foundry confirms stable animation and 4K upscaled visuals
The new game from Rockstar Games is created with the current generation of stationary game consoles in mind. That's the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. The developers created the title on their own RAGE engine, which has its own graphical problems in past games. They will try to ensure that the game is as stable as possible in the case of these two powerful platforms.
What experts at Digital Foundry noticed after looking at the trailer is that there is no trace of a particular problem with jerking animation. This problem has so far been responsible for stuttering in games such as GTA IV, GTA V and Red Dead Redemption. This shows us that character motion in the engine now works much more stably than before.
The trailer shows that visually it all works in 1440p resolution and then gets upscaled to 4K. Experts at Digital Foundry have also noticed realistic lighting and high details in the environment in the scenes in the trailer. This means that the technical aspects focus on providing us with as high visual quality as possible while maintaining the correct number of frames in these two platforms.
The release date for the new Grand Theft Auto VI is November 19, 2026. The title will be available in this date worldwide on the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. This makes it clear when you can expect the game on these platforms.
