Of all the GTA VI trailer remakes, this ad from Hyundai Motorsport that recreates the trailer has to be my absolute favorite. In a stunning show of dedication by staying true to the source material, Hyundai Motorsport has successfully grabbed the attention of both motorsport enthusiasts and gamers. Those two groups aren’t necessarily mutually exclusive. People can have multiple hobbies and interests after all.
But it’s not often that you see companies outside of those more commonly linked to gaming putting out gaming-related ads. Let alone ones of this caliber. Now the ad has nothing to do with GTA VI. In any way. And as far as we can tell, Hyundai Motorsport isn’t linked to Rockstar Games by way of sponsorship or anything like that. This seems to have been just a fun way for Hyundai to get people’s attention. And the carmaker has likely done just that and then some, knowing how popular GTA VI is most certainly going to be. Even for years post-launch.
The Hyundai GTA VI ad is a pretty faithful recreation
There have been some really good GTA VI trailer remakes already. At least two that we’ve written about, including one that was done entirely with LEGOs. And while those have been very well done, what makes this one from Hyundai stand out is that it’s live-action done with real people from the Hyundai Rally team. For the most part, it recreates most scenes very well too. And it’s got a certain level of comedy to it. It’s worth a watch if you haven’t seen it already. And even if you have, it’s still fun to watch a second or even third time. Because it’s that entertaining.
GTA VI is due to release in 2025, so the game is still a pretty long way off. For a game that’s driving so much excitement within the gaming community, a 2025 release is going to leave plenty of time for more cool projects like this one from Hyundai Motorsport. Here’s to hoping they’re all just as good.
