It is a new line which is part of the eventful history of the video game saga Grand Theft Auto (GTA). Put under pressure by a succession of leaks, Rockstar Games ended up revealing the first trailer for the sixth opus of the video game series on the night of Monday to Tuesday, after its distribution by an anonymous X account (ex-Twitter). . Initially, the American publisher had planned to put it online on Tuesday afternoon.

Ten years after the release of GTA V, the wait was too much. In ten hours, the one-minute-and-a-half video had already exceeded 50 million (!) views on YouTube. However, fans will have to wait until 2025 to get their hands on GTA VI. The enthusiasm is as high as the success of the license which has sold more than 410 million copies, including 190 million just for GTA V released in 2012. Which makes it nothing less than the second best-selling game in the history of the video game industry.
