GTA 6’s second trailer dropped on May 6, 2025, and fans are more excited than ever. But beyond the action and graphics, many noticed something interesting — signs that Rockstar Games might have a marketing deal with Sony.
While there’s no official confirmation yet, here’s why fans believe it could be true.
1. Trailer Says It Was Captured on PS5
The biggest clue comes straight from the trailer. Rockstar Games noted that all the footage was captured on a base PS5. This detail made fans wonder why Rockstar didn’t use a PC or Xbox — unless they were promoting PS5 on purpose.
2. Fans on Social Media Are Talking
Popular GTA community member @videotechuk_ posted on X:
“Looks like Sony got a marketing deal with Rockstar.”
Another fan replied:
“L after L for Xbox,” hinting that PlayStation might be getting the edge in the GTA 6 release.
3. Old Rumors Are Coming Back
In 2023, gaming personality MAGG claimed that Sony had already locked down a marketing deal for GTA 6. They even said this deal would become more clear in the second trailer — and now, it might be.
4. Wishlist Opened on PlayStation Store
The GTA 6 wishlist is already available on the PlayStation Store. This quick move adds fuel to the rumor that PlayStation will be more involved in the game’s release or promotion than Xbox.
5. No Xbox Mentions So Far
So far, no trailer or official source has mentioned Xbox in any key way. Fans think this silence might be intentional, especially if Rockstar is working closely with Sony on marketing.
What’s Next?
There’s no official word yet from Rockstar or Sony about a deal, but fans expect more news soon. If true, the partnership could push more players to pick PS5 or PS5 Pro for the ultimate GTA 6 experience.
