GTA 6 (Grand Theft Auto 6) - Official PS5 Features Trailer

A diner robbery supplies the tension, literally: GTA 6's PS5 features trailer uses a stick-up to demonstrate the controller's adaptive triggers. Elsewhere, a gym workout and dirt bike racing become demonstrations of spatial sound. Even backyard wrestling has a job, illustrating haptic feedback.

This is a promotional trailer hosted by IGN, not the outlet's review. Its pitch is about how Rockstar's open world will feel through PlayStation hardware, with fast loading and police chatter from the controller speaker rounding out the showcase.

The upload reached roughly 895,000 views in 12 hours, already far beyond IGN's usual first-day audience for Shorts. The comments are unusually busy, too: well over a thousand arrived before the upload was half a day old, compared with the few dozen a typical Short receives on its first day.

Much of that conversation asks what is actually new about the advertised features. Viewers point to their familiarity with controller vibration and spatial audio; some bring up GTA V's PS5 version. The speaker demonstration prompts a more practical debate about whether radio chatter coming from a controller adds atmosphere, particularly for someone wearing headphones.

IGN's separate pre-load trailer also drew a much larger audience than its usual Shorts. Both uploads advertise a November 19 launch on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, though only the features trailer turns a racetrack collision into a demonstration of controller feedback.

Am I the only who thinks the controller speaker audio is annoying and actually does the opposite of immerse you in the game?
