On April 19, 2025, Grand Theft Auto 6’s trailer reached a milestone on YouTube of 250 million views. In addition to being Rockstar’s most-watched video, it’s one of the most-watched video game trailers of all time. This milestone just attests to how the game had been creating hype for years, and now, the hype around this game has reached its peak. The fact that the GTA 6 trailer alone has more views than Rockstar’s next four highest viewed YouTube videos combined is quite impressive. That encompasses everything up and including blockbuster titles such as GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2. That just shows how far ahead even the studio’s largest prior titles, GTA 6, is in terms of buzz. Everything about the trailer was a success: Its outstanding opening of 90 million views in its first 24 hours earned it the tags of the most-viewed and most-liked video game trailer in a single day. This is a clear signal for Rockstar that, from all perspectives, GTA 6 has the potential to be a defining moment for Rockstar, the GTA franchise, and the entire gaming industry. However, ever since the trailer leaked, Rockstar has been tight lipped. Nevertheless, Take-Two says the real marketing push will begin closer to the fall 2025 release of the game. For now, the trailer keeps carrying the load.
