GTA 6 Trailer 1 Is the Most Popular on YouTube in Its Category

GTA 6 Trailer 2 caused a real stir in May, but you might be surprised to learn that it still can’t compete with the game’s debut reveal. Sure, a year and a half separates the two, but the gap is still huge:

• views: 269 million vs. 140M,
• likes: 12 million vs. 6.2M,
• comments: 1.012 million vs. 515 thousand.

With numbers like these, Trailer 1 — having set several records — became the most popular non-advertising trailer on YouTube in history, surpassing the blockbuster Avengers: Infinity War. At the moment, Grand Theft Auto VI sits roughly 700,000 views ahead, and the gap will only keep growing: the Marvel movie has been out for 7.5 years (its official trailer for a full eight), while GTA VI is still a year away from release.
