Rockstar Games continues to amaze with its highly anticipated addition to the legendary Grand Theft Auto series. The first GTA 6 trailer instantly went viral, setting views and like records for gaming videos. However, the second official trailer surpassed all expectations—it took just 40 minutes to hit 1 million likes on YouTube, breaking a world record. No other gaming or media project has ever attracted this level of attention in such a short time.

And that’s just the data from Rockstar Games’ official channel. Within two hours of its release, the trailer surpassed 10 million views, with likes soaring past 2.2 million. Meanwhile, the number of dislikes remains negligible compared to the overwhelming positive reception.

Grand Theft Auto VI is set to release on May 26, 2026—initially only for PS5 and Xbox Series. As usual, PC fans will have to be patient.
