Grand Theft Auto 6 is one of the most-anticipated video games in recent years, and its first trailer created quite a commotion on social media. The first promotional video for the sixth installment in the GTA franchise already crossed the 100 million mark on YouTube and set several records in its wake.
Grand Theft Auto 6 takes us to Vice City, modeled after modern-day Miami, and it centers on the franchise’s first female protagonist Lucia. She’s an inmate at a Vice City Prison at the very start of the trailer, but she doesn’t stay there for too long, and we get to watch her flee the police and commit a series of crimes with an unnamed male lead.
The release of the GTA 6 trailer was meant to celebrate the 25th anniversary of this franchise, and it created quite a commotion on social media. It became the most-viewed video game reveal and non-music video on YouTube in its first 24 hours, and the third-most viewed overall with 90 million views.
GTA 6 was a long time coming and fans of this franchise have been patiently waiting for its release since Grand Theft Auto V in 2013. Rockstar Games is yet to officially announce its release date, but it’s expected to arrive in 2025.
