The YouTube trailer for Grand Theft Auto VI has surpassed 100 million views in just over a day since its initial release at 6 am yesterday. This impressive figure has already outperformed the view count of the GTA 5 trailer, which has been on YouTube for quite some time.
The overwhelming hype surrounding the GTA 6 trailer doesn’t come as a surprise, as fans have been eagerly waiting for this moment. However, one small issue arises when it comes to Rockstar’s choice of platforms for posting news updates about GTA 6. While they have been using X/Twitter to communicate various updates, they opted for YouTube when it came to posting the trailer video.
This decision has caught the attention of Linda Yaccarino, the CEO of X/Twitter, who has called on Rockstar to also post the trailer on X’s video platform. After all, gaming content is a topic of great interest to X’s audience. Responding to the demand, Rockstar has now posted the trailer on X as well, currently amassing 15 million views.
TLDR: The Grand Theft Auto VI trailer has taken the internet by storm, with over 100 million views on YouTube within a day. Rockstar’s decision to post the trailer on YouTube instead of X/Twitter has sparked a request from X’s CEO for the trailer to also be posted on X’s video platform. Rockstar has complied with this demand, resulting in an additional 15 million views on X.
