What do the comparisons between GTA 6 and GTA 5 show?

The user took official screenshots from GTA 6 and reproduced them in GTA 5 Legacy Edition, maintaining the same angles, characters, and settings. The result made it clear how much the franchise has evolved.

Although GTA 5 remains visually solid, there is no doubt it was designed for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in 2013. More than a decade later, the new title marks a turning point in visual quality.

The compared screenshots highlight key improvements in dynamic lighting and the level of detail in the environments. The textures, shadows, and reflections of natural light show meticulous work.
