The GTA 6 trailer continues to excite everyone. And now it’s time to make a comparison with good old Vice City. Totally cult episode of the saga.
GTA 6 has been officially announced, and a few days ago we had the opportunity to check out the first trailer. As expected, this revelation shook the internet for many hours. Some fans even took the initiative to compare this new opus with the Vice City episode. Since both games take place in the same city. What better way to do this than to compare the images of the two to see how far you have come?
GTA 6 vs Vice City, the comparison full of nostalgia
Same city, but different era (80s vs 2020s). The official Future Game Show account had fun returning to Vice City to compare the atmosphere and locations shown in the first GTA 6 trailer. Nostalgia, technical gap, but atmosphere remained intact. This comparison clearly shows that if Vice City crosses the ages and eras, its atmosphere will remain largely unchanged. Newcomers will discover the city from a more modern perspective, driven by social networks. Early fans will find iconic places from their youth on PS2, like Ocean View to name just one.
A city of great beauty
Vice City reflects the characteristic architecture and design of the 1980s, notably with its neo Art Deco style and neon signs. The city is therefore decorated with colorful buildings and bright facades, evoking the atmosphere and aesthetic of Miami during this period. The city has vast white sand beaches, lined with palm trees and accompanied by a lively promenade. This part of Vice City is heavily inspired by South Beach in Miami. Offering an ambiance of relaxation and leisure by the sea.
Vice City is divided into several districts, each with its own character and atmosphere. The diversity ranges from wealthy neighborhoods to more deprived areas, including shopping centers and exclusive islands. This helps reflect the socio-economic variety of a large city. In GTA 6, although the action takes place in the current era, these elements seem to be faithfully respected, even if the next game will introduce us to its surroundings for the first time. Plus, the Miami-inspired city appears more splendid than ever.
