Rockstar put 29 GTA 6 screenshots online in 4K, and three had never been seen

Rockstar has quietly published its full Grand Theft Auto 6 screenshot set in 4K. Most of the 29 images went out with the Extended Look preview run, but this is the first time they have been available at native resolution, and three of them are completely new.

The three new shots

The first is filed as Jason and Lucia 3. The pair are mid drive, and the detail is all in the customisation: new haircuts on both of them, piercings, fresh tattoo work down Lucia's arm, a watch on Jason's wrist and a Chancy's cup in his hand. Chancy's has already turned up in an in-game advert, which makes a visitable location look likely.

The second, Jason and Lucia 7, drops them into an industrial freight elevator. Lucia has a shirt tied around her waist and sunglasses pushed up into her hair, both of them are armed, and Jason has an arm around her.

The third is Vice City 10, a clean daylight look at the Pagasi residences. The curved towers have been sitting in the background of other shots for months, and there is a third one going up behind them.

What the rest are worth looking at for

The bank vault shot is the one people will keep zooming into. Tens and twenties hang in the air around Jason and Lucia, and the faces printed on them appear to be Red Dead Redemption 2 presidents, a nod that only becomes readable now the resolution is there.

Lucia's pistol outside a check cashing store is the other standout. It has tape on the grip, a sticker stuck to the body and scuffing across the slide, which is a strong hint that weapon condition is a system rather than set dressing.

Then there is the material work. In one shot Jason stands in the rain and the water is visibly soaking into the fabric of his hood rather than beading on top of it.

The set closes on Jason and Lucia in the Grass Rivers at sunset with three police airboats and a helicopter closing in. It plays like the frame before everything comes apart.
