Grand Theft Auto VI: big numbers but disappointed after the trailer

We had an appointment this afternoon to discover the first trailer for Grand Theft Auto VIbut unfortunately, a leaker obliged Rockstar to bring forward these plans and publish the video 15 hours earlier than planned. This did not stop millions of players from viewing the trailer.

The first Grand Theft Auto VI trailer already has 73 million views on Youtubeslowly but surely approaching the 98 million views of the first trailer for GTA V. This obviously does not take into account people who viewed the video on third-party channels, on Twitch with their favorite content creator or via social networks, the Internet has changed a lot in 12 years.

Anyway, the trailer for Grand Theft Auto VI already does better than the first videos of Cyberpunk 2077, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Red Dead Redemption 2 combinedgames that are highly anticipated before their releases. IGN did the accounts, FPS/RPG of CD Project records 28 million views, the open world adventure game from Nintendo 16 million views and action game with cowboys from Rockstar 23 million views. As saying that GTA VI is already a success, many fans are waiting for it.

However, the hasty reveal of the first trailer for Grand Theft Auto VI was painful for the developers. Even though they have been working on the game for years, they were waiting like the players to discover the video with colleagues at the scheduled time. As reported PC Gaming, employees of Rockstar did not fail to express their disappointment and frustration on social networksfirst with somewhat vulgar messages quickly deleted then with slightly more measured remarks:

  • It really sucks.
  • Seriously? Sorry for the anger, but the trailer leak is so disheartening. I was really looking forward to seeing her watch with everyone. A lot of people were.
  • Sad that it was shown this way, but still very happy to finally be able to show the world what we’ve been working on! Hope you all enjoy.
  • Too bad it had to be released like this, but I’m so excited to finally be able to show off what we’ve been cooking up.
  • It’s sad that it happened this way, but I couldn’t be more excited to work on an incredible project with amazing people.
  • I’m actually not going to watch this until I’m in the office with the people who I did this with and who worked so hard to make this happen.
  • Enjoy, guys. It would have been nice to do this with all of you at the same time.

Several other members of the video game industry also deplored the leak of the trailer, recalling that it is often harmful to the commercial strategy of the game and its development, demoralizing the developers involved in the project. The others disappointed are PC gamersbecause GTA VI is currently only expected on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, not before 2025.

The fans imagine very well Rockstar we do the same thing again as with GTA V : release the game on the current generation of consoles, then port it to computers and next-gen subsequently to restart the hype. While waiting for the release of Grand Theft Auto VI in 2025, you can find GTA V from €14.99 on Amazon And there Fnac.
