Trailer GTA VI in just 100 hours it collected more than XNUMX million views and broke many records. This time, Rockstar again did not deviate from their corporate style: the video is full of black humor and ridicule of society.
The company has parodied real-life incidents and trends many times, bringing them into the world of Grand Theft Auto. In this article we will tell you about all the memes, references and Easter eggs from the GTA 6 trailer, and also show what the original real-life events looked like.
In the GTA 6 trailer, we were able to notice many references to real-life events, news and scandals. Next we will talk about each of them.
Parody brands
One of the things that will migrate from the fifth part to the sixth is parody brands. Instead of Louis Vuitton, the girl in the trailer is wearing Sessanta Nove, and locals still drink Pisswasser beer and Sprunk, the local version of Sprite.
Florida Trumpist
In one clip from local TikTok, an elderly man can be seen relaxing on a yacht with many girls. There is an American flag on the bow of his vessel. It can be assumed that these frames are reference to Trumpist meeting from Florida, a video of which at one time went viral.
Alligator in the pool
Another short video from social networks practically repeats a scene from a report about alligators taking up residence in the swimming pools of Florida residents. From the passage you can also understand that the game will probably have a service to catch them.
Florida Joker
The game's trailer features an excerpt from a news report that reads: "Confession written in ink (tattoo). The tattoo on the neck, which gave away the criminal, became the key to accusing the man of Leonidas.” This episode practically repeats fragments of the Florida news: a man who looks like the Joker, was arrested for brandishing a gun.
Twerking on the roof of a car
In another clip from local social media, witnesses filmed a black girl twerking on top of a moving car. The same situation happened in 2017 in Miami, which later became a popular American TikTok trend.
Alligator in the store
Another viral video with alligators in Florida. The trailer shows CCTV footage of a reptile crawling into a gas station convenience store. A similar situation occurred in Miami when an alligator made its way into Walmart.
Naked man at a gas station
Another meme event was a naked man running from police in Canada. A similar scene was added to the Rockstar trailer, slightly changing the background but keeping the shooting style the same.
Ghost Riding
For a few seconds, Rockstar showed another TikTok trend - Ghost Riding (Ghost Riding). The driver leaves the driver's seat and climbs onto the roof or door, leaving the car to drive on its own. In recent years, many deaths have been recorded in the United States when trying to repeat such tricks for the sake of likes and new subscribers.
Local bike club
The local news in Vice City featured a bike club that was “terrorizing” the city with its races. Happens often in Florida police chase after gangs of stunters, driving through the streets on motorcycles and ATVs, violating the rules and blocking the streets. In addition, it is possible that the game will feature similar activity in the form of races or full-fledged tasks.
Half naked waterer
In 2018, social media in Florida exploded with a video showing a completely naked retiree watering his garden. The trailer repeated the scene, but added some clothes to him so that the video would not be blocked.
Off-road
Rockstar also showed a favorite hobby of South Americans for a few seconds - off-road and bigfoot. Fans of this sport gather in the Florida swamps and organize races. Judging by the watermark in the lower right corner, players will also be invited to participate in this activity.
Karen
In another second-long video, you can see a live broadcast of an aggressive middle-aged lady. The scene mirrors an incident in California in which a woman named Karen, wielding two hammers, threatened to smash her neighbor's car. Since then, the “Karen phenomenon” has become a real meme and refers to an overly demanding and confrontational white woman who uses “her privilege” in the form of skin color to get what she wants.
Call Of Duty - Black Ops T-shirt
Towards the end of the trailer you can see a street racer wearing T-shirt parody of Call of Duty: Black Ops merch. This can be understood by a barely noticeable fragment of the inscription “Ops”.
