Everybody Wants to be Rockstar? Developers Copy GTA 6 Trailer Announcement
A poster announcing the trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6 inspired several other developers to prepare similar graphics.
Gamers await the release of the first trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6 with bated breath. When announcing this trailer, Rockstar Games published a distinctive poster with the exact date (December 5 at 6 a.m. PST). The tweet has already been viewed more than 143 million times and has inspired other studios to make similar posters, advertising the announcement of various new products for their games. Developers have prepared them with a tongue-in-cheek attitude, but it gives a good indication of how big an event the first trailer of GTA 6 will be.
Developers take inspiration from Rockstar Games marketing
Call of Duty
Raven Software has planned some attractions for Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0 fans for December 6.
Fall Guys
Also on December 6, we will learn about the future of the online arcade game Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout.
Halo Infinite
On December 4, on the other hand, we will see a trailer for new content heading to Halo Infinite.
People are analyzing the GTA 6 trailer poster
Not only other developers have carefully analyzed Rockstar Games' poster. Gamers and journalists have also started looking through every pixel of this image for clues.
- The palm trees visible in the poster may confirm that the game will return to Vice City. This, however, would come as no surprise, as reports of this have been circulating for a long time.
- Some suspect that the three birds on the poster suggest that we will hear the song Three Little Birds in the trailer. Others wonder, whether this means there will be three playable characters in the game.
- On the other hand, the fact that there are four palm trees on the poster could mean, that the world of GTA 6 will be divided into four main regions.
Of course, these analyses should not be taken seriously and the authors themselves approach them with considerable humor. Everyone has simply been waiting so long for the announcement of this game that it is hard to contain the excitement when we are only a few days away from the first trailer.
