GTA 6 screenshots recreated in Cyberpunk 2077 showcase Rockstar's next-gen visual leap
Source: Rockstar Games
A committed Cyberpunk 2077 gamer has remade a number of the biggest Grand Theft Auto 6 screenshots released with Trailer 2 this month. Through the use of mods, they synchronized lighting, poses, and composition to closely replicate Rockstar's initial footage.
The result isn't merely a nod to GTA 6's initial look, it's also an unmistakable demonstration of how much further Rockstar is taking graphical realism compared to other contemporary triple-A games.
Cyberpunk recreations highlight GTA 6's visual transformation

Reddit user Party-Scallion-189 undertook the ambitious task of recreating GTA 6 screenshots within the Cyberpunk 2077 universe. Utilizing character Panam as a proxy for Lucia, they replicated major trailer moments, from Lucia mid-punch to her lounging in a swimming pool.
Multiple mods were employed to tweak character poses, facial expressions, lighting effects, and even camera angles, creating some very detailed side-by-side comparisons.
Even though the creator insisted the intention wasn't to crown a victor in a graphics battle, fans couldn't help but observe vast contrasts. The GTA 6 screenshots, built upon Rockstar's in-game footage, have more realistic skin details, gentler natural lighting, and deeper environmental immersion.
Even with Cyberpunk 2077's reputation for visuals, the comparison only serves to illustrate just how evolved GTA 6's visual fidelity already looks, particularly the fact that the game isn't due for release for another year.
Record-breaking trailer sparks fan imagination through long wait
The timing of this video endeavor could not be more apt. Rockstar's second GTA 6 trailer, which dropped on May 6, set internet records at more than 475 million views in 24 hours, creating unprecedented heat on platforms.
In addition to it, Rockstar dropped more than 70 new images, providing fans with more than ample material to examine, remix, and re-imagine.
With GTA 6 officially pushed back to May 26, 2026, fans are getting creative about what they can do in the meantime. From hunting for easter eggs to photo recreations such as this one, the community is only gaining steam while Rockstar remains silent.
This remake of Cyberpunk 2077 is more than simply a cool-looking visual experiment, it's evidence of GTA 6's high level of production and dedication of its fan base. Even without gameplay, Rockstar has provided fans with enough to dream of the future. If these images are anything to go by, that future is amazing.

Homebound cinematographer Pratik Shah accused of abuse, Karan Johar's Dharma Productions breaks silence
Neeraj Ghaywan's latest film Homebound recently made waves with its screening at the Cannes Film Festival 2025, earning a 9-minute standing ovation and widespread acclaim. The film continues to make news but for the wrong reasons. Its cinematographer Pratik Shah has been accused of 'abuse' and 'inappropriate behaviour' towards multiple women. On Saturday, Karan Johar's production house Dharma Productions issued a statement on the matter, asserting their zero-tolerance policy. Times of India quoted their statement: 'At Dharma Productions, we have a zero tolerance policy against inappropriate behavior and sexual harassment towards any individual working with us in any capacity, and we treat sexual harassment cases very seriously.' 'Mr. Pratik Shah was a freelancer on the project Homebound and was working on it for a limited period. His engagement with us has been completed. During this limited period, our internal committee for POSH didn't receive any complaints against him from any cast or crew on our film Homebound.' Pratik Shah is best known for his work in films Jubilee, CTRL and Homebound. Recently his name cropped up when independent filmmaker Abhinav Singh took to Instagram and accused Pratik of abuse. He also indirectly called him 'highly manipulative' and "emotionally abusive". Without revealing names, Abhinav initially urged his female followers to be careful around a cinematographer. He wrote, 'To my female friends: Please be cautious around a certain cinematographer I've encountered-he's highly manipulative and emotionally abusive based on my personal experience. If you want details, feel free to DM me.' Later, he revealed he was talking about Pratik Shah. He added, 'The number of women who've reached out to me is honestly frightening. I feel like I'm having a Margot Robbie moment from Bombshell. I will not be silenced. And to those who are still employing him – f**k you. His name is Pratik Shah. He's a cinematographer.' He claimed that many women reached out to him regarding Pratik and called him a 'predator.' 'I've spoken out, and now I'm hearing from others — people who've felt silenced or sidelined. It's heartbreaking. The patterns are undeniable. Many have called him a predator," he said. Filmmaker-writer Srishti Riya Jain also amplified several accusations against Pratik on Reddit. She also accused the film industry of a 'selective attention span and gaze' when it comes to acclaimed people. 'To everyone pretending to act shocked, scandalised, and suddenly awoken from their slumber… THIS man worked on one of the 'most empathetic' films of the year — or so the interviews at Cannes claimed,' she wrote. The alleged Reddit post featured someone calling Pratik 'a total sleazeball.' 'He slides into every girl's DMs and talks crap,' someone mentioned. Another said, 'He sent me a follow request last year while I was liking a mutual friend's pictures. I accepted it, and he said it was a mistake. I unfollowed him immediately — it felt off." Reportedly, Pratik has either deactivated or deleted his Instagram account as his social media handles remain unavailable. He is yet to address the allegations against him. As per THR India, four years ago Pratik Shah faced a similar situation but was let go after a warning.

Manushi Chhillar Calls Out Sexist Double Standards In Bollywood: 'Stop Dismissing Women...'
Last Updated: Manushi Chhillar slams misogyny in the film industry, calling herself self-made and financially independent while urging women to ignore sexist judgment. Bollywood actress Manushi Chhillar has spoken out strongly against the misogynistic mindset that often undermines women's success—particularly in the entertainment industry—by attributing it to male support or influence. In a powerful Instagram note, she called out the gender bias that questions women's merit and agency, reinforcing harmful stereotypes. Her statement comes in the wake of a viral Reddit post referencing a blind item that baselessly linked her to elite 'sugar daddy circles" of businessmen and entrepreneurs. Without naming the source, Manushi addressed the narrative head-on. 'A misogynistic mindset finds it easier to attribute a woman's success to a man's patronage than her own merit," she wrote. 'I've ignored such silly comments for the most part, but the pattern of disrespect towards working women—especially in our industry—needs to be addressed." A misogynistic mindset finds it easier to attribute a woman's success to a man's patronage than her own merit.I've always really ignored silly comments which have no consequence in the real world, but I constantly see working women, specially in the entertainment industry being…— Manushi Chhillar (@ManushiChhillar) May 31, 2025 The former Miss World emphasized the values she was raised with, citing her upbringing in a progressive, education-focused environment. 'In my world, being a good doctor mattered—not whether you were a man or a woman. But in the real world, I've seen how men are seen as hardworking and talented, while successful women are often dismissed as opportunists or gold diggers." She went on to reaffirm her own sense of identity and achievement, 'I'm a financially independent, self-made, working woman. I take pride in living life on my own terms, surrounding myself with people who inspire me, and making decisions that align with my dreams—not someone else's expectations." Manushi also left a strong message for women navigating similar scrutiny, 'Dear girls, there is a lot of joy in being independent—and yes, it will make many uncomfortable. The easiest thing they'll do is question your character. Ignore it. Having your own life is worth it." On the work front, Manushi was last seen in Bade Miyan Chote Miyan alongside Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff. She debuted with Samrat Prithviraj in 2022 and is set to headline upcoming films like Maalik and Tehran. First Published: May 31, 2025, 14:14 IST
