Rockstar Games has announced that the *GTA 6 Trailer 2* has set a new record as the biggest video launch of all time, amassing a staggering 475 million views across all platforms on its first day. This surpasses the viewership of major movie trailer launches, including *Deadpool & Wolverine*, which garnered 365 million views, and *The Fantastic Four: First Steps* with 200 million views in their first 24 hours. Even last year's *Superman* trailer, which achieved over 250 million views and became the most-viewed in the history of both DC and Warner Bros., was outshined by *GTA 6 Trailer 2*.

It's worth highlighting that the first *GTA 6* trailer also made waves, securing 93 million views on its debut day, marking it as the largest non-music video launch on YouTube. At the time of this article's publication on May 8, *GTA 6 Trailer 2* has already reached 85,276,196 views on Rockstar’s official YouTube channel alone.

Following the release of *GTA 6 Trailer 2*, IGN reported a monumental surge in Spotify streams for The Pointer Sisters’ track *Hot Together*, which was featured in the trailer. The 1986 song experienced an astonishing 182,000% increase in global streams within just two hours of the trailer's premiere.

“Grand Theft Auto cuts through popular culture like almost nothing else,” remarked Spotify’s Global Head of Editorial, Sulinna Ong. “Music has been synonymous with the series since the very beginning, so it’s great to see fans both new and established connecting with an iconic track in this way.”

The release of *GTA 6 Trailer 2* comes after the game's high-profile delay from fall 2025 to May 26, 2026. Anticipation is sky-high, with expectations that *GTA 6* will not only set new revenue records for video games but also for the entertainment industry as a whole.
