The Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer demonstrated how Rockstar Games prepares for the upcoming gaming period. The highly-anticipated trailer wowed fans with its presentation, and it is still one of the most viral things on the internet.

However, this is not the first time the American gaming studio has tried to push its limits. GTA 4 was also a remarkable name in the Grand Theft Auto series that introduced “new-age realism” in video games.

Although the 2008-released title looks dull in contemporary times, its graphics were groundbreaking during its release period. The community is eagerly waiting for Rockstar Games to release a GTA 4 Remastered version with improved graphics.

Grand Theft Auto 5 also pushed Rockstar’s limits one step further. However, the game still has a cartoonish vibe. However, the Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer showed almost realistic graphics, reducing the difference between video games and real-life visuals.

Grand Theft Auto 4 ruled the franchise for five years and above. The latest game is still popular after over a decade. Many fans believe the upcoming Grand Theft Auto title will dominate the gaming industry for a long time.

One of the most interesting things in GTA 4 was the in-game physics. Rockstar Games implemented Euphoria Engine to create realistic ragdoll animations. Although the current game is a downgrade compared to the 2008 title, the upcoming game’s trailer showed the return of better in-game physics.
