Short GTA 6 clip recreates Miami street scene so faithfully fans mistake it for real footage
A 15-second first-person video shared by Only in Dade and Rockstar shows customized cars and pedestrians in Leonida, sparking disbelief among viewers.
A brief new gameplay clip from Grand Theft Auto VI has circulated online, leaving many viewers unable to distinguish it from genuine street-level photography. The 15-second sequence presents a first-person view of several customized cars parked along a busy sidewalk while pedestrians walk past, recreating an actual video from a West Coast Customs crossover.
The footage was originally posted on November 11 by the Miami-based social media account Only in Dade. Rockstar later shared the same clip on its official Instagram story, and Only in Dade confirmed it was captured from the game itself.
Reactions across social media reflected widespread confusion. Multiple commenters stated they initially believed the scene was real life or generated by artificial intelligence. One reply described watching the clip repeatedly and still struggling to accept it was in-game footage, while others simply wrote that they thought it was real.
The clip also prompted jokes about earlier performance concerns, with one user suggesting that people who had complained about a 30 FPS console cap were reversing their refunds. The game is scheduled for release on November 19, and preloads are available now.
