GTA 6's first celebrity cameo is a divisive one

My brain is non-stop swimming with thoughts about GTA VI. If all had gone to plan, the trailer would’ve premiered just one hour ago. Due to yet another leak though, Rockstar was forced to drop the video early.

A grainy version of the GTA VI trailer leaked online yesterday. The internet was soon rife with fans questioning whether it was real or not. We all know now that it was, with Rockstar Games responding with the full HD trailer. The reception to the trailer has been exceptional. Fans are blown away by the graphics which is no surprise, as they may be the most impressive we’ve ever seen. Many are also thrilled to see that the series hasn’t lost its satirical sense of humour. Some Florida residents have even joked that the game’s Vice City is almost too realistic.

Take a look at the full GTA VI trailer below.

It wouldn’t be a GTA instalment without a few celebrity cameos, and the first one may have just been revealed online. Streamer Adin Ross took to Twitter to write, “I’m in GTA VI. I can’t speak much about it but you’ll see later on throughout the year in the next trailer. Either way, I’m blessed and thank you to Rockstar for giving me an opportunity to have something to do with the greatest game ever.”

Adin reportedly tweeted this from the account @AR15thed3mon which is seemingly a secondary account the streamer sometimes uses. It’s no secret that Adin Ross is a pretty divisive figure. In a stream earlier this year, Ross criticised GTA VI for featuring a female protagonist. “Bro, I feel like they do that to adapt to 2023. We don’t need no girl character,” he said.

Needless to say, the tweet has drawn a mixed reaction. “I’m in it too,” several people joked, not believing Ross. “If this is actually true, I’m actually not buying this game,” one person tweeted, while another added a different perspective: “Honestly, great fit. I feel like streaming will be paradied quite a lot in this game.” Until any cameos are confirmed by Rockstar, I’d take this all with a pinch of salt.
