GTA 6 Screenshots Recreated in Cyberpunk 2077
There’s no denying that CD Projekt Red’sCyberpunk 2077is already one of the best-looking games around, but new comparison images from Reddit user Party-Scallion-189 show thatGrand Theft Auto 6is going to be leaps and bounds ahead of most other triple-A titles. The images, which can be seen below, useCyberpunk 2077’s Panam as a stand-in for Lucia, recreating some ofGTA 6’s best screenshots. From Lucia being mid-strike to gracefully relaxing in the pool, the Reddit user has spent the time recreating every detail from the screenshots. However, it is worth noting that a handful of mods were used to adjust the lighting, poses, effects, and customization in order to get the perfect shots.
While the user also notes that these images were not created to be a direct graphics comparison, it’s hard not to appreciate just how impressiveGrand Theft Auto 6’s visuals are. As both of the game’s trailers have been created in-engine, the visuals seen are an accurate representation of what will appear in-game. Rockstar has also revealed that there were equal parts cutscenes andgameplay inGrand Theft Auto 6Trailer 2, but did not specify which parts were gameplay. Users then spent the time rewatching the trailer and breaking down what parts could potentially be gameplay.
Unfortunately, it’s going to be quite some time until fans get to check outGrand Theft Auto 6’s graphics in real-time. Shortly before Rockstar released the game’s second trailer, the studio announced that it haddelayedGrand Theft Auto 6from its Fall 2025 release window to Jun 11, 2025. In a statement on its social media channels, Rockstar apologized to fans and noted that the studio’s goal “has always been to try and exceed expectations.” WithGrand Theft Auto 6being no exception to that rule, Rockstar said it needs the extra time to deliver the level of quality that fans have grown to expect from the developer.
