Take-Two Interactive reported results for the third fiscal quarter ended December 31 that fell short of its expectations as mobile ads and NBA 2K24 revenues were lower than expected. As a result of the shortfall, Take-Two said that it is planning a cost-reduction program that is more extensive than the one it undertook last year […]

Read MoreThis trademark dispute between Remedy and Take-Two is brought to you by the letter R
This is a weird one: Back in April 2023, Remedy Entertainment unveiled a new logo, a stylized “R” it said represented “a fresh and refined look” for the studio. But, as discovered by Respawn First, Take-Two Interactive has filed oppositions to Remedy’s trademark application in the UK and EU, claiming a “likelihood of confusion” with […]
Read MoreWhere to find Peyote Plants in GTA Online
GTA Online Peyote Plants are recurring items which add a twist to your time in Los Santos. These small cacti grow in numerous places all around the map and eating one turns you into an animal, allowing you to play as a random critter or sea creature as you go about your daily business. Peyote […]
Read MoreGTA 6 fan goes full noir detective to discover a random NPC’s sunscreen SPF in the most informatively unhinged way
Title card: The Grand Theft Auto 6 Sunscreen Mystery. Fade in: Interior. A detective’s office. Shutters keep the glow of street lamps at bay. A lone figure paces around the room, kicking away cans of empty aerosol sunscreen that spill from an overflowing trash bin. They mutter to themself as they light up a cigarette. […]
Read MoreThe 18-Year-Old Hacker Behind The ‘GTA 6’ Leak Has Been Sentenced To A ‘Secured Hospital’ For Life
Last year, Rockstar Games was hit by a massive leak that not only confirmed the existence of Grand Theft Auto VI, but dumped a horde of videos on several online message boards. Considering the game studio only just released the first trailer in December 2023, the company was still far away from sharing GTA VI […]
Read MoreFlorida Joker issues 3-day countdown threat and takes to cosplay in his war on GTA 6’s supposed use of his likeness, then demands an ‘extra million dollars’ for his trouble
Say what you like about Lawrence Sullivan, also known as the Florida Joker, but you have to admire his tenacity. After calling Rockstar out for a character in the Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer who bore a resemblance to his own viral mugshot and demanding “a mil or two” in recompense, he’s now upped the […]
Read MoreWith Grand Theft Auto 6’s Lucia being the series’ first proper leading lady, I’m hoping she doesn’t become another caricature or stereotype
Last week Rockstar sent gamers absolutely feral when it dropped the first trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6, albeit a little earlier than planned. It was 90 seconds chock-full of prime GTA vibes—we were given a great look at a modern-day Vice City, a whole host of real Florida Man behaviour, and a first peep […]
Read MoreHere’s every new car in the GTA Online Chop Shop update
The GTA Online Chop Shop cars list is pretty impressive, which is good because there’s no such thing as having too many vehicles in Los Santos. No GTA update would be complete without a selection of shiny new motors to add to your collection, and The Chop Shop is no different. Of course, you’d be […]
Read MoreA former Grand Theft Auto dev weighs in on GTA 6’s delayed PC version: ‘it’s hard to do that as a developer, because the team isn’t big enough’
Grand Theft Auto 6 didn’t get a PC release date along with its trailer. Historical precedent isn’t promising either, since Red Dead Redemption 2’s port took 13 months to make the jump, while GTA 5 took a whopping 19. At the time of writing, though, GTA 5 is number 10 on the top sellers list […]
Read MoreArthur Morgan’s voice actor TikTok responds to GTA 6’s Florida Joker and his demands—’you ain’t getting a job at Home Depot with that face’—then deletes the video
If I had a 2023 bingo card, I can guarantee that ‘the voice actor for Arthur Morgan got in a TikTok feud with the Florida Joker’ would not be on it. It feels like a sentence written by putting a bunch of names on a corkboard and throwing darts at it. For context: last week […]
Read MoreFrom Coquette to the Cheetah Classic, here are all the GTA 6 cars we spotted in the trailer
It may be a little early for an official GTA 6 cars list but there’s nothing stopping us from scrutinising every frame from the new trailer to see if we can spot any familiar vehicles. While you might have other questions about GTA 6, such as the characters you can play, whether radio stations will […]
Read MoreGTA 6 detectives think its first trailer actually plays out in reverse—all thanks to an ankle bracelet with some grim, real-world implications
I’m typically sceptical of trailer scrubbers—and there are a hell of a lot of them with Grand Theft Auto 6. Can’t blame them, obviously, it’s been 10 whole years since we last got a GTA game. But they’ve really been ravenous this time—drawing circles around moles, driving up Spotify numbers, and having some would-be players […]
Read MoreFlorida’s real-life Joker calls out Rockstar over apparent cameo in GTA 6 trailer: ‘We gotta talk’
Innocent, dew-eyed babe that I am, I had no idea that the heavily tatted criminal who makes a brief appearance in the Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer looked like a real guy. But he does, and now I will live with that knowledge until my last days. He resembles Florida Joker—real name Lawrence Sullivan—a resident […]
Read MoreGTA 6 trailer smashes a YouTube viewership record—but still can’t compare with another three-letter acronym
Before GTA 6 has the chance to break the sales records we’re all expecting it to, its 90-second trailer has been busy shattering a couple YouTube records. Since Rockstar Games posted the trailer on Tuesday it’s racked up a staggering 110 million views. What’s really remarkable is that over 90 million of those views came […]
Read More6 burning questions we have after seeing the GTA 6 trailer
The Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer has arrived (a bit earlier than expected) and in the single day it’s been online it’s already been watched by about 90 million people. That’s more than the entire population of Germany. It’s also broken a Guinness World Record becoming the most viewed videogame reveal within 24 hours. New […]
Read MoreGTA 6 players fall in love with ‘bikini girl’, start drawing red circles and cross-referencing photos to prove she’s the game’s new lady lead
So, Grand Theft Auto 6’s trailer came a little early—thanks to some unfortunate leaks that bungled its initial announcement timing. It pretty much set the internet on fire, crushing 60 million views in 12 hours. At the time of writing, that’s up to 70 million. GTA’s back, baby. Well, sort of. We’re gonna be waiting […]
Read MoreGTA 6 trailer sends fans into frenzy, earns game dev praise, and leads people to ponder their inevitable demise: ‘What if we die before GTA 6 releases in 2025?’
Grand Theft Auto 6, the latest open-world crime simulator from Table Tennis studio Rockstar Games, got its first trailer yesterday. Perhaps you heard. So far as I can make out, the reaction so far has been a kind of obsessive euphoria, as literally millions of people around the world pore over 90 seconds of footage […]
Read MoreGTA 6 reveal trailer scene-by-scene breakdown: dogs, dadbods and social agitation
Earlier today a now-deleted X account leaked the official GTA 6 reveal trailer, nearly a full day ahead of its scheduled premiere. I watched it about four times in its leaked format: very low-res and with “BUY $BTC” superimposed over the middle. I thought it looked pretty good even then, though I was as yet […]
Read MoreRockstar devs react to Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer leak: ‘This f***ing sucks’
It’s not fun for developers when trailers leak early for their games, but I imagine even less so when your studio has something new to share as rarely as Rockstar does. The studio planned to premiere the first GTA 6 trailer tomorrow morning. People were so excited about it that thousands were sitting around in […]
Read MoreGTA 6 reactions: Florida Men, car-top twerking, face tattoos, bikinis, and life behind bars
You could sum it up with: So a gator walks into a gas station… Arriving earlier than expected, the GTA 6 trailer implies a lot in its brief 1 minute 16 seconds of in-game footage: sprawling urban life and mixed with rural recreation and everglades wildlife, several varieties of Florida Man and gator, influencer antics, […]

It’s been a long wait—over ten years—but our first official look at Grand Theft Auto 6 is nearly here. Rockstar Games will reveal the first trailer for GTA 6 on Tuesday, December 4 on YouTube. We probably shouldn’t be calling it GTA 6, by the way—Rockstar Games hasn’t officially named it that yet, instead calling […]
Read MoreThe Grand Theft Auto 6 announcement graphic has become the new CD Projekt Red apology as brands scramble to snag some hype of their own
In case you missed it, a little-known developer called Rockstar finally revealed that its first trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6 would be dropping on December 5.

It’s starting to look like a hit, gangland style. Remember Rockstar Social Club? It’s gone. It’s been clipped, as a gangster might say. Visit the official Rockstar website and you won’t see it mentioned. 15 years after it appeared, Rockstar Social Club sleeps with the fishes. The name, that is. The term “Rockstar Social Club” […]
