Below you’ll find at least eight Easter eggs we spotted in the trailer, but considering the game’s not due out on PS5 until 2025, we probably have months to discover more. Is there anything obvious we missed? Did any of these details or gags make you laugh out loud? As always, be sure to shout them out in the comments section below.
Nine 1 Nine Plane Banner
Image: Push Square The plane banner flying over the city at the start of the trailer ponders: “Why sixty-nine when you can nine 1 nine?” Rockstar’s trademark sense of humour is in full effect, it seems.
An Influencer's World
Image: Push Square Social media looks poised to feature heavily in GTA 6, as we see various clips taken from TikTok-esque apps. But nothing quite screams the influencer age like this sneak peek of a man rolling around in the sand, taking photos of his significant other’s posterior.
Driving As Fast As a Cheetah
Image: Push Square There are a lot of cars in the GTA 6 trailer, but the one that jumped out to us was the Cheetah, which has featured in virtually every entry since GTA 3 . It’s based on the iconic Ferrari Testarossa, and here it even has CH33TAH as its license plate. Also, notice just to the right, there’s a man sitting on the ground with an iguana on his shoulder.
Viral Virility
Image: Push Square As we mentioned previously, social media appears to play a huge role in GTA 6. A large proportion of the trailer consists of footage captured from fake social media accounts, including this one posted by DadBodSquad. It’ll be interesting to see if this plays a role in the actual gameplay loop, and if you’ll be able to share your own TikTok-style posts – or at least “follow” the various characters you encounter.
Emotion Engine
Image: Push Square Pharmaceutical companies aren’t going to get off lightly in GTA 6 either. One billboard for a product named Angstipan promises to “cure emotions”. The smallprint notes: “Patients 18-65 should use with extreme caution. Sudden urge to blink could be life threatening. Call your doctor if your erection lasts more than four hours. Results may vary.” The wonders of Western medicine, eh?
A Familiar Face
Image: Push Square The criminal depicted here is likely a goof on the Florida Joker , a tattooed man who has an unhealthy obsession with Jared Leto’s version of the DC supervillain. Also, pay attention to the police badge in the background, which is almost identical to the emblem cops use in Florida.
Only on Weazel News
Image: Push Square Weazel News, the fictional news station inspired by Fox News, is back in GTA 6. Also, notice at the bottom of the news ticker, there’s a reference to the popular Florida Man meme , which says: “Leonida man sucked up in waterspout demands the city buy him a new suit.”
Pißwasser without the Hangover
Image: Push Square Fake beverage Pißwasser is back, and this time it appears there’ll be a non-alcoholic alternative available, named Pißwasser Nein. You can also see just off to the left bottles of eCola as well. We didn’t spot any Sprunk yet, but we assume it’ll feature in the game.
Love Is an Open Door
Image: Push Square Considering GTA 6 will depict the entire state of Leonida, and not just Vice City, the detail on this convenience store door is truly remarkable. One notice points out that the business will “no longer accept cash stored in underwear”. There’s also a Tom Petty bumper sticker, honouring the song in the trailer, and a reference to the Illuminati religious cult from previous GTA games. You may also spot the iFruit Pay symbol, which replaces the usual Apple Pay logo you see in most shops these days.
Are there any other Easter eggs in the GTA 6 trailer we overlooked? What are your thoughts on the hotly anticipated game now we’ve gotten our first glimpse at it? Take the Pißwasser out of everyone in the comments section below.
