Most viral GTA 6 memes

012023
We got X before GTA 6
“No way we got X before GTA 6”
People attach it to any surprising news, product launch or world event to joke that it arrived before GTA 6. When Rockstar announced the delay to November 2026, Kotaku called it an already ubiquitous meme.
Where it's from: A comment template that grew out of the 12-plus-year wait after GTA V (2013). Scattered posts existed earlier, but it took off in summer 2023 when TikTokers joked that "we got aliens before GTA 6" after the UFO hearing in the US Congress. Every GTA 6 delay (to May 2026, then to November 19, 2026) gave it a new wave.

What I looked like when GTA V came out vs now
A joke about how long fans waited between GTA V and GTA VI.
Where it's from: When Rockstar announced the date of the first GTA VI trailer on November 8, 2023, people posted a 2013 photo of themselves next to a current one.

GTA 6 trailer's real viral clips (hammer lady)
Fans matched trailer shots to real clips and joked that Rockstar barely had to make anything up about Florida.
Where it's from: GTA VI Trailer 1 (December 2023) includes in-game social media clips that PC Gamer says copy real viral Florida videos almost 1:1, such as a woman waving two hammers outside her home (a 2017 news clip).
