And every screenshot and trailer we\u2019ve seen of it has only reinforced that idea. And yet, when I scrolled the newly updated official GTA 6 website today, I was stunned by the sheer scope of the world of Vice City. And I wasn\u2019t alone.<\/p>\n<p>On June 18, Rockstar Games revealed the official cover art for GTA 6 (don\u2019t worry, <a href=\"https:\/\/kotaku.com\/gta-6s-cover-continues-the-weird-rule-rockstar-has-followed-for-25-years-2000708095\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">it has a helicopter on it<\/a>) and also announced that pre-orders for the highly anticipated game would go live on June 25 on console storefronts and at \u201cselect retailers.\u201d It also quietly updated the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rockstargames.com\/VI\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">official Grand Theft Auto 6 website<\/a> a bit, adding the game\u2019s cover artwork. And more excitingly, Rockstar added a new eight-second clip of Vice City to the site as you scroll down.<\/p>\n<p>Thankfully, if you dig into the site\u2019s code, you can pluck out the full, high-res video to gawk at. <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/TexFunz2\/status\/2067606995230769392\" rel=\"nofollow\">This is what longtime GTA leaker and dataminer TexFunz2 did<\/a>, as you can see below:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">A new look at Vice City<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/6RyGImp23Q\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/t.co\/6RyGImp23Q<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/hashtag\/GTAVI?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow\">#GTAVI<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/4WxuckIHUF\" rel=\"nofollow\">pic.twitter.com\/4WxuckIHUF<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Tex2 (@TexFunz2) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/TexFunz2\/status\/2067606995230769392?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow\">June 18, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>And just\u2026wow. I have a full-resolution version of the video on my PC, and I can\u2019t stop looking at it. The city looks incredibly detailed and dense. You can look far off into the distance and see lights and buildings that look miles and miles away. It\u2019s truly impressive. And keep in mind that Rockstar Games has historically used in-engine footage and real gameplay for all of their trailers. So this isn\u2019t some pre-rendered nonsense, but instead a genuine look at what Vice City will look like in GTA 6. Wowza.<\/p>\n<p>Reactions online were mostly positive, with some trolls claiming it looked bad, which is just sort of a wild thing to post online, but okay.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe attention to detail in this city is insane,\u201d posted one user about the new clip.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat\u2019s so beautiful about this is how the lights look at night time especially on the street. I just came back from Miami and the accuracy is literally insane,\u201d said another person.<\/p>\n<p>Another user shared a comparison of Vice City at night as it looked in the PS2 game compared to GTA 6\u2018s version of the city. It really sums up how far things have come in the 20+ years since Rockstar developed that game.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"qme\" dir=\"ltr\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/jcIILijL4h\" rel=\"nofollow\">pic.twitter.com\/jcIILijL4h<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 BigBossSnakeWolfCorn (@BBSnakeCorn) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/BBSnakeCorn\/status\/2067628302278275213?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow\">June 18, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Grand Theft Auto 6 launches on November 19 on PS5 and Xbox Series X\/S.
