Rockstar Games has gained over a million YouTube subscribers in the hours leading up and following the first Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer reveal.
After years of hype and 10 years since the release of Grand Theft Auto 5, Rockstar Games has finally shared the first of many trailers for the next title in the series.
The GTA 6 trailer reveal didn’t go off as planned, with Rockstar having to release it early after someone uploaded it to Twitter/X in its entirety.
That didn’t ruin any of the hype, however, as Rockstar Games’ YouTube channel saw massive growth in subscribers with the trailer’s reveal.
