And it\u2019s been a decade of significant change in the gaming industry. The PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, for example, have been and gone.<\/p>\n<p>Now that we finally have the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/gta-6-trailer-explained\/\" rel=\"noopener\">trailer<\/a> for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/gta-6-release-date\/\" rel=\"noopener\">GTA 6<\/a>, we know for sure that the series has completely skipped the eighth generation of consoles (barring ports).<\/p>\n<p>That surely means a huge graphical leap between Grand Theft Auto 5 and 6, then?<\/p>\n<p>Well, not necessarily. There are a few things we need to take into account (including the aforementioned ports). Read on for how the GTA 6 graphics compare to GTA 5.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>GTA 6 graphics: How do they compare to GTA 5?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Let\u2019s not forget that while Grand Theft Auto has technically skipped the eighth generation of consoles, this only applies when we look at GTA 5 at launch. The fifth in the series has since been ported to PS4 and Xbox One, and has been given the remaster treatment.<\/p>\n<p>So, GTA 5 running on previous-gen hardware looks far more polished than it did back in 2013.<\/p>\n<p>YouTuber GRIZZLY BEAR has made a video comparing the San Andreas of GTA 5 with what we saw of Vice City in the GTA 6 trailer. Check out the video below:<\/p>\n<iframe title=\"GTA 6 VS GTA 5 GRAPHICS COMPARISON\" width=\"200\" height=\"113\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/0jiM7foa8rc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\/>\n<p>The video shows, if anything, how well the PS4 port of GTA 5 holds up in 2023. Even with direct comparisons to the GTA 6 trailer, it still looks great.<\/p>\n<p>However, the superiority of the newer game is pretty evident. Whether it\u2019s the details of the people on the beach, or the wildlife in the swamps, Grand Theft Auto 6 looks to take things a lot further with the PS5 and Xbox Series.<\/p> <div class=\"brightcove embed\"> <div class=\"embed__intrinsic\"> <div class=\"brightcove__player vjs-playlist-player-container\"> <video data-video-id=\"6342161071112\" data-account=\"69912529001\" data-player=\"ByeOf0VZEl\" data-embed=\"default\" data-application-id=\"\" controls=\"\" class=\"video-js\"> <\/video> <\/div> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<script src=\"\/\/players.brightcove.net\/69912529001\/ByeOf0VZEl_default\/index.min.js\"\/> <h2><strong>How have people reacted to the GTA 6 graphics?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>As discourse about the new trailer has become ubiquitous across the online sphere, talk about the graphics is bound to be a prominent talking point. And, as we expected, it\u2019s ranging from high praise to jeering derision.<\/p>\n<p>Check out the video from YouTuber Savix Clips below:<\/p>\n<iframe title=\"GTA 6 TRAILER REACTION - NO WAY THIS IS REAL\" width=\"200\" height=\"113\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7RQxBjavCP0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\/>\n<p>He\u2019s so impressed by the visuals, saying \u201cthis is in-game graphics!\u201d in disbelief.<\/p>\n<p>However, there are some complaints from people (especially from users on Reddit) who are less than happy with the trailer.<\/p>\n<p>Take this comment from user Educational_Duck_717, for example, who said: \u201cI\u2019m kind of disappointed. The graphics are very similar to RDR2 and TLOU2 which are old gen games.
