Rockstar Breaks Record for Most-Liked Gaming Tweet with Grand Theft Auto 6 Announcement
A tweet from Rockstar on November 9 has set a new record for the most-liked gaming tweet of all time. The tweet, revealing the upcoming trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6, has already earned 1.2 million likes on Twitter and continues to gain more traction. In just five hours, it surpassed one million likes, according to reports by Okami Games, surpassing a previously record-breaking tweet from Rockstar on September 19, 2022.
The Tweet and Its Impact
In the tweet, the developers of GTA V shared the news that the highly anticipated trailer for GTA 6 will be released in early December. The tweet quickly gained popularity and currently has 111.3 million views. While it is rapidly approaching non-gaming Twitter records, there is still a way to go before it reaches the top tweets of all time, like those from BTS and Joe Biden, which have 1.5 million likes.
Rumors and Confirmation of GTA 6
Rumors about GTA 6 have been circulating within the gaming community for years. However, this tweet from Rockstar is the first official confirmation of the game. Speculations suggest that the game will feature a female protagonist named Lucia and her partner, Jason, in a story set in Vice City. Leaks have also hinted at a significantly larger map compared to the previous GTA game, San Andreas.
The Future of GTA
GTA V was released over 10 years ago, but Rockstar has continued to provide updates and new content for the game throughout its lifespan. The recent San Andreas Mercenaries update introduced new vehicles, missions, and quality-of-life improvements. However, with the impending release of the GTA 6 trailer next month, it is uncertain if GTA V will receive any further DLC.
Fans will have to eagerly wait for the trailer in December and hope that Rockstar shares more information soon. Although the wait may be a few more weeks, it will be worth it for the highly anticipated GTA 6.
