Grand Theft Auto 6 Trailer: Soon after Rockstar Games dropped the trailer of GTA 6, fans have taken the internet by storm. Released on December 5, the 90-second video clip continues to break records on the internet in viewership and reaction metrics. According to Guinness World Records, it is the most watched "videogame reveal" on streaming platform YouTube within the first 24 hours.
The clip clocked 90,421,491 views during this time (126 million views at the time of filing). GTA 6's reveal is also the most liked videogame trailer with 8.9 million likes in 24 hours. The video is also the most viewed content on YouTube (non-music) within the first 24 hours of release. The video surpassed the benchmarks set by Mr Beast's "Every Country On Earth Fights For $250,000", which grabbed 59.4 million views in August.
The sequel to the widely-loved GTA V is set to feature two protagonists with a female lead for the first time. Lucia and her partner Jason (as reports suggest) will be in the lead roles in the much-awaited gaming title set in Vice City. Speaking of the latest GTA V, the gaming title has a massive list of records under its belt during its more than a decade-long journey.
