The user shared the video titled “GTA 6 but in REAL LIFE!,” originally in French. The maker along with his friend reportedly roamed around Miami, Florida, and explored various locations spotted in the trailer. They published the video in French, however, it has auto-generated subtitles in English. Additionally, it also uses the same “Love is a Long Road” song by Tom Petty in the background.
It highlights the locations seen in the video along with the exact real-life cinematic shots of the same colored parasols at the beach, the speed boat with a cargo ship in the background, the graffiti walls, as well as the aerial view of the city during the night. It looks as realistic as it could get compared to the record-breaking trailer.
