GTA 6 fans divided over PlayStation exclusivity
May 8, 2025
Sony seemingly strikes a deal
GTA VI fans are divided over what looks to be an exclusive deal between Sony PlayStation and Rockstar Games.
Earlier this week, social media went into a meltdown when Rockstar Games suddenly dropped the long-awaited second trailer for GTA VI and, quite literally, broke the internet.
To say that the second trailer was worth the wait would be an understatement. To put it simply, the latest GTA VI trailer is a thing of beauty, as indicated by its ever-increasing and record-breaking YouTube view count.

At the very end of the trailer, fans were surprised to learn that it stated that gameplay was captured using a PlayStation 5, and not even a PS5 Pro. So, has Sony struck some sort of marketing deal with Rockstar Games?
If so, it seemingly wouldn’t be the first time, because in the trailer for the new-gen release of GTA V, it was advertised as coming to PlayStation 5, despite also being released on Xbox Series X/S.
This shouldn't come as much of a surprise, because ever since the first game in the Grand Theft Auto series was released in 1997 on the original PlayStation, both Sony and Rockstar Games have had a legacy relationship, so to speak.
What’s more, Microsoft infamously rejected exclusive rights to GTA III, and with PlayStation taking up the deal for PS2, it played a huge role in releasing one of the most important video games of all time.
