Fans Think Michael's Yacht Is in the New GTA 6 Trailer
The GTA community has already noticed numerous references and easter eggs in Grand Theft Auto 6's second trailer, but some eagle-eyed fans now believe they've spotted a throwback to Grand Theft Auto 5. As fans continue to analyze every frame of the new trailer, some have spotted what appears to be Michael's yacht in Jason's front yard. The iconic boat features in the mission "Father/Son," where players team up with fellow protagonist Franklin Clinton to attempt to retrieve Michael's stolen yacht. Unfortunately for Michael, the thieves make off with the boat, and it is never seen again...until now?
Ever since the release of Grand Theft Auto 6's second trailer, numerous posts have appeared on social media sites such as Reddit and Twitter pointing out the nearly identical yacht. Although this could simply be a similar boat or possibly even a reused asset, some are theorizing that Michael's yacht made it all the way to Vice City, where it now resides in Jason's front yard. Reddit users such as MogosTheFirst are even speculating that there could be a piece of dialogue that ties the two games together, as Jason may reveal that he purchased the boat from a "low-life criminal who stole it from some rich guy in Los Santos."
With fans continuing to analyze all of the new footage and screenshots, it's no surprise that Grand Theft Auto 6's second trailer has already broken records. According to developer and publisher Rockstar Games, Trailer 2 has become the biggest and fastest-growing video launch in the history of the internet, accumulating over 475 million views across all platforms in just 24 hours. With excitement and anticipation for Grand Theft Auto 6 at an all-time high, there's no denying that the title is shaping up to be one of the biggest releases in entertainment history.
