A devoted fan has crafted a detailed comparison between scenes from the iconic 2002 GTA: Vice City and the newly released Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer, highlighting remarkable advancements. This visual comparison surfaced following the GTA 6 trailer, which confirmed the game’s return to Vice City and introduced its principal characters and a broader map.
The gaming community has been eagerly anticipating Rockstar’s latest addition to the Grand Theft Auto saga for over a decade.

The highly anticipated trailer, released a day ahead of schedule due to a leak, quickly went viral, racking up over 90 million views within the first 24 hours on YouTube. It introduced the game’s dual protagonists, inspired by the infamous criminal pair Bonnie and Clyde.
On Reddit, user Enough-Engineering41 illustrated the evolution of Vice City by aligning images from the original game with those from the GTA 6 trailer. Landmarks like Vice Beach and the neon-lit streets have been dramatically enhanced, showcasing two decades of technological advancements. Further comparisons with actual Miami locations in the GTA 6 trailer have impressed fans with Rockstar’s attention to detail in recreating the city’s vibe.

Rockstar has announced that GTA 6 will unfold in the expansive state of Leonida, stretching far beyond the familiar confines of Vice City, hinting at a vast and varied game world.
Fans are diligently dissecting the GTA 6 trailer, searching for insights into the plot, characters, and settings. Notably, a fan observed that Lucia, one of the protagonists, is wearing an ankle monitor, suggesting intriguing gameplay mechanics. Another detail that caught fans’ attention is the realistic movement of Lucia’s car seat, showcasing Rockstar’s commitment to detail. Additionally, there’s buzz about a potential Easter egg linking back to Lance Vance from the original Vice City.
