And with the GTA 6 release date being postponed to next year, the game's release will mark a whopping 13 years since GTA 5 first arrived.
GTA 6 vs GTA 5 graphics – How do the visuals compare?
We've put a bunch of screenshots from GTA 6 and GTA 5 side by side to see just how much better GTA 6 looks, going through character models, buildings, vehicles and environments.
Everyone already knew GTA 6 looked incredible anyway, but once you see it right next to its predecessor, it becomes clear just how big an upgrade it's set to be.
While there's certainly a difference in art style at play here too, it's impossible not to acknowledge just how much better the GTA 6 models look.
Taking a closer look, Jason's clothes are much sleeker, and the glisten on his face from sweat is something GTA 5 never even comes close to.
It's when you start looking at the details that the improvement becomes clear. GTA 5 features some slightly clunky modelling on things like signs, windows and traffic lights.
In GTA 6, on the other hand, everything is modelled smoothly – there's nary a polygon out of place.
The vehicles in both screenshots have a slick, shiny finish, but GTA 6 goes one step further, with the reflections in the car's paintwork being much more impressive.
Similarly, the detailing on the car – wheels, licence plate, blemishes etc – are of a much higher quality.
Having gone for a more realistic look in its environments, GTA 5 hasn't aged particularly well. The landscape is lumpy, and the textures certainly look like they're from 2013.
GTA 6's environment, on the other hand, offers up some of the most realistic-looking visuals we've ever seen – you would be hard-pressed to find a better example of how far graphics have progressed in the past 13 years than this.
While the texture quality of the deer and grass in the GTA 5 screenshot is by no means bad, it simply can't compare.
The reflections in the water, the puma's wet fur, the textures of each of the leaves – it's just on another level.
Compared to the barren rocks and cloudy water of GTA 5, the underwater areas of GTA 6 are seemingly teeming with life.
So, there you have it – GTA 6 looks very good, especially when you compare it with a game that came out in 2013. Who knew?
It just goes to show quite how talented the folks at Rockstar are that GTA 5 is still competing visually with some of the games releasing today.
