Rockstar Games has rewritten the record books with the release of the second trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6 on May 6. The trailer has surged past all previous online video viewership records, amassing over 475 million views within just 24 hours. This makes it the most-watched video launch in history, surpassing every movie, TV show, and video game trailer ever released.

In comparison, the previous record-holder was the Deadpool and Wolverine trailer, which garnered 365 million views in its first day. Even GTA 6's first trailer, which made waves in December 2023 by reaching 93 million views in 24 hours, cannot compare to the overwhelming success of the second trailer.

As of now, the video has exceeded 500 million total views and continues to gain traction, making it the fastest-growing video in internet history. Rockstar Games confirmed this milestone through The Hollywood Reporter, cementing GTA 6 as the dominant force in entertainment viewership.

The timing of the trailer's release was particularly significant. On May 2, Rockstar announced a delay for GTA 6, pushing its launch from Fall 2025 to May 26, 2026. The news disappointed many fans, but the release of the new trailer, along with fresh screenshots and story details, helped restore excitement. The nearly three-minute video offers a deeper look into the game's protagonists, Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos, featuring a blend of action-packed gameplay and cinematic sequences.

Rockstar clarified that the trailer's footage was captured entirely on a PlayStation 5 and includes a balanced mix of in-game action and cinematic material. The high-end visuals, combined with compelling narrative elements, have amplified anticipation for the game's release, propelling GTA 6 to unprecedented levels of global attention.
