The record-breaking GTA 6 trailer is packed filled with particulars (IGN noticed 99!), however one which’s gone underneath the radar is a cool nod to Rockstar’s earlier recreation.
First noticed by X/Twitter person @tempestGTA, the trailer accommodates a blink-and-you’ll miss it sticker on the shop door Jason and Lucia kick in that appears precisely like Purple Useless character Everett Morgan. That mustache silhouette is unmistakable!

You’d be forgiven for not recognising the character. Everett Morgan is a minor character and bounty goal in Purple Useless On-line, and doesn’t seem in Purple Useless Redemption 2. In Purple Useless On-line, gamers can view a poster displaying Morgan, who is needed useless or alive for a prepare theft and the dying of a conductor. Naughty boy.
It’s a deep lower from Rockstar, however we shouldn’t be shocked. The developer is famed for its Easter eggs and hidden particulars, and there are nonetheless loads of unresolved mysteries in its video games. Is that this innocuous sticker affirmation Purple Useless and GTA are set in the identical timeline? The thoughts boggles.
The GTA 6 trailer was awaited with bated breath from the gaming trade and at last arrived with loads of basic Rockstar satire. The 90-second trailer featured a ton of intricate particulars, as we’ve talked about, and loads of references to wild and wacky actual life occasions too. It additionally confirmed off GTA 6’s twin protagonists, Jason and Lucia, and the web has already grown obsessed over the latter. The GTA 6 trailer has already surpassed predecessor Grand Theft Auto 5’s reveal trailer’s views, reaching 101 million views in lower than two days. It’s now the most-viewed online game reveal on YouTube over a 24 hour interval, and essentially the most seen non-music video on YouTube in 24 hours.
