, so it was inevitable that fans would remix the original trailer into a new form. Now, someone has released a remake of the GTA 6 trailer with a PlayStation 2-inspired makeover.

, and there appears to be some subtle humor in this video. There’s clipping when Jason robs the convenience store, which is definitely true to a PS2 experience. Jason also appears to have more trouble lifting weights in this version than he did in the actual trailer.

The Vice City glimpsed in this trailer remake is also noticeably less populated than the one seen in the original trailer. The PS2-era GTA games couldn’t handle subtle expressions and body language in their character models like the new game can. And without those touches, this take on the GTA 6 trailer doesn’t have the same resonance as the original.

Digital Foundry recently shared an in-depth look at the second GTA 6 trailer and concluded that it won’t be able to run on Nintendo Switch 2 despite the new system’s greatly improved hardware. This PS2-style incarnation of the game would probably work for both incarnations of the Switch, but who would want to play this downgraded version after seeing what GTA 6 really looks like?

GTA 6 is coming to Xbox Series X|S and PS5 on May 26, 2026. That delay is estimated to cost the video game industry approximately $2.7 billion in 2025, according to Ampere Analysis.
