A fan has spotted another apparent error in the second GTA 6 trailer.
Another possible mistake has been spotted in the second GTA 6 trailer: during a short chase scene, a street lamp appears to float in mid-air. Rockstar is facing little criticism for this. On the contrary, some fans even see the glitch as a positive sign.
After the Best Buy leaks, the pre-order mishap and Take-Two’s earnings call, things have quieted down a little again around the successor to Grand Theft Auto 5 (currently around $25 on Amazon). The GTA 6 subreddit, however, is still anything but silent. Reddit user u/Bullshit99 has spotted a supposed error in the second trailer. More specifically, it concerns the short chase scene at the 2:29 mark, in which Lucia is behind the wheel of a convertible while Jason jumps onto the vehicle from behind. In the background, a street lamp can be seen that appears to be floating in mid-air.

Rockstar is facing hardly any criticism for the supposed error. It appears to be nothing more than a small graphics glitch that made it into the published footage despite the elaborate trailer production – and it is by no means the first error fans have spotted in the two GTA 6 trailers released so far. In the first trailer, for example, fans noticed a side mirror with no visible reflection. In the second trailer, there is an inconsistent moment in which Jason’s gun briefly lights up the surroundings before the actual gunshot is visible.
Fans are taking these small errors in the GTA trailers in stride. In this particular case, some even interpret the supposed graphics bug as a positive sign. The scene could indicate that Rockstar is showing at least some in-engine material in the trailer rather than relying exclusively on heavily post-processed render sequences. Such inconsistencies would be more plausible in in-engine footage than in fully polished CGI sequences. That, in turn, fuels hopes that the final game will actually come close to the trailers visually.
As a child in the 90s, my Gameboy was my steady companion. After school, the PlayStation was fired up. When I finally got my first PC, I was completely hooked. My passion for gaming has never waned since. For me, writing for Notebookcheck means reporting on topics that are really close to my heart - in addition to gaming, I also like to write about e-mobility, photovoltaics and innovative gadgets. When I'm not sitting at my computer, I'm probably on water rescue duty on the Baltic coast or trying to counteract the downsides of my geek life - namely sitting for long periods - at the local swimming pool.
