YouTube channel TeaserPlay has created yet another Unreal Engine 5 concept video, this time imagining a hypothetical sequel to the belovedGrand Theft Auto: San Andreas.Grand Theft Auto: San Andreasoriginally released in 2004 to widespread critical acclaim and is generally considered one of the best video games ever made. Rockstar’s mega hit has since been re-released on numerous platforms, mostly recently brought to modern consoles as part of the controversialGrand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition.
Rockstar Games rarely creates sequels that follow-up on the stories in its games, with mostGrand Theft Autotitles being standalone affairs with a couple of cameos to establish that they exist in the same universe. Despite the game’s immense popularity,Grand Theft Auto: San Andreasis no exception.Fan favorite character CJhasn’t been seen sinceSan Andreas, and while it’s unlikely that Rockstar will ever create a direct sequel to the game, the new TeaserPlay video offers a concept of what it could be like.

The TeaserPlay video is set in 2022, whereas the originalGrand Theft Auto: San Andreaswas set in the 90s. However, it starts out similar to the original game, with CJ returning to San Andreas andGrove Street, where he grew up. This time around, though, CJ is 55 years old and looks his age, though he’s still wearing the exact same wife beater and jeans that he wore in the originalSan Andreas, for whatever reason.
Clips from the originalSan Andreasare interwoven with a scene of CJ taking a taxi to Grove Street. CJ reminisces about theevents ofSan Andreaswith a somber expression. Upon arriving at Grove Street, CJ finds that his childhood home has been neglected, with graffiti covering the exterior. No one else is seen in the video, but there are some vehicles outside the other Grove Street residences, indicating that the neighborhood hasn’t been completely abandoned.
This isn’t the first time that TeaserPlay has made a video dedicated toGrand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Using Unreal Engine 5, the YouTube channel has created multiple tributes to the classic game, like one that recreatedBig Smoke’s fast food order scene.
