Rockstar Games has once again captivated the gaming world with the release of exclusive new clips for Grand Theft Auto 6 (GTA 6), shared directly on their official website. The footage, which isn’t available for download, offers a breathtaking glimpse into the highly anticipated open-world title, further building anticipation for its release next year. X user @GTAVI_Countdown shared a compilation of the new GTA 6 clips, which you can watch in the tweet below:
The new clips showcase a sprawling urban landscape at dusk, likely set in the reimagined Vice City—a fictional take on South Florida that has been a focal point of the GTA 6 buzz. The scene captures a moody atmosphere with dramatic, storm-laden clouds looming over a bustling cityscape. Illuminated by streetlights, a train snakes through the heart of the city, while cars navigate the roads below. The level of detail is staggering, from the distant cranes dotting the skyline to the faint glow of lights in the foggy horizon, hinting at the immersive world Rockstar is crafting.
These clips follow the recent release of the second GTA 6 trailer, which dropped earlier this week and revealed additional details about the game’s setting and characters. That trailer included Easter eggs like a Liberty City license plate on a truck, sparking speculation about whether the iconic GTA IV setting might make an appearance in GTA 6. While some have pointed to potential connections to New York (Liberty City’s real-world inspiration), others remain skeptical of how expansive the game’s map will truly be.
What to Expect from Leonida in GTA 6
The fictional state of Leonida, inspired by Florida, promises to be a vibrant and diverse setting for GTA 6, extending far beyond the neon-soaked streets of Vice City. Based on promotional materials, players can anticipate a mix of urban sprawl, coastal beauty, and rural wilderness, with locations like the Leonida Keys and Mount Kalaga offering a range of environments to explore. Expect a criminal underbelly teeming with depravity, as well as a modern-day take on the glamour, hustle, and greed that define the GTA experience, all brought to life with unparalleled attention to detail and a dynamic atmosphere that captures the essence of the Sunshine State’s various regions.
Rockstar has confirmed that GTA 6 will launch on May 26, 2026, for Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5, with a PC release expected to follow later. This date marks a delay from the initially teased Fall 2025 window, leaving fans eager for more content to analyze in the meantime.
Rockstar’s latest reveal continues to build on the legacy of the Grand Theft Auto series, which has consistently set the standard for open-world experiences. With GTA 6, the studio appears to be doubling down on realism and immersion, drawing on years of development to create what many hope will be a groundbreaking title. As the countdown to 2026 continues, these clips are a tantalizing taste of what’s to come, ensuring that GTA 6 remains one of the most talked-about games in the industry.
