So, will GTA 6 look so real you forget it’s a game? Sometimes, yes. In perfect lighting, while standing still, with no explosions. The rest of the time? It will look like the best-looking game you’ve ever played, but still a game. That’s not a disappointment—it’s a testament to how far we’ve come since those pixelated puddles.
And honestly? I don’t want it to look too real. Because if I have to worry about sunburn and mosquito bites in a game, I’m going to need a vacation from my vacation. For now, I’ll settle for a Virtual Vice City that makes me squint and whisper, “Is that… an alligator?”
Roll on, 2026. I’m ready to be fooled.
