That’s like *everyone* in the UK watching it — even your nan.

After the unsurprising delay of Grand Theft Auto VI into May of next year, Rockstar actually surprised us yesterday with a second trailer for the long-anticipated game — giving us a closer look at the lives of protagonists Jason and Lucia and how things will play out as they misbehave across Vice City.

In the 24 hours since the trailer debut the nearly three minute video has racked up more than 65 million views (68,634,954 at time of writing) — that's nearly the same as the entire population of the UK.

In addition to totting up a frankly insane number of views, the trailer has also attracted over 400,000 excitable comments — including one from the Guinness World Records account, who noted that they were "keeping a keen eye on that views counter".

Anyway, whilst you're here I'd wager you'll probably watch it again, so here you go:

GTA VI arrives on May 26, 2026 for the PS5 and Xbox Series S and X — no sign of a Switch 2 version just yet.

384 days to go.
