A new Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer debuted today, November 10, and the video showed off a race car driver doing a backflip. The animation looks smoooth.
That's notable because the Extended Look trailer that debuted back in August showed Jason doing a backflip and people online quickly roasted it for looking ... off. Other said it looked totally fine. Whatever the case, some are saying this new backflip animation being featured in the latest trailer is an example of Rockstar taking feedback seriously, but it could be more nuanced than that.
That's because it subsequently came to light that the backflip animation in GTA 6 is controlled by the player and isn't locked to one specific animation. However, we don't know who is doing the backflip in this newest clip.
If the character in the trailer is an NPC, as people on Reddit are surmising, then the animation could have been motion-captured as opposed to being player-controlled, hence why it looks less janky.
In any event, this backflip stuff becoming a "controversy," if you can even call it that, is yet another example of how ramped-up people are for GTA 6. People are so jazzed for the release that they are poring over even the smallest details, which you may never even notice when playing the game for yourself.
GTA 6 releases on November 19 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, and preloading is live now. The game unlocks at midnight local time on November 19, and that means people in the US will be among the last in the world to play .
