The recently released teaser for Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6) thrilled fans as they search for hidden nuggets and cryptic references concealed throughout the clip. Among the numerous Easter eggs discovered on Twitter and Reddit, one in particular caught the gaming community's interest, creating intriguing concerns about the likely connections between GTA 6 and the Red Dead Redemption universe.
Fans instantly noticed a sticker in the teaser that resembles Everett Morgan, a relatively unknown bounty target from Red Dead Online. Social media photographs show the sticker next to Morgan's wanted poster, revealing a man with dark, dishevelled hair and an identifying moustache. The wanted poster adds further information, including Morgan's neckerchief and clothes, causing fans to think about the potential effects for GTA 6.
The mystery surrounding Everett Morgan grows as players speculate whether he may return in GTA 6, possibly as an alternate universe version or even a descendant of his former self. Morgan's character, though less known, rose to popularity in Red Dead Online as a wanted criminal accused of taking part in a rail heist and killing a conductor. Despite his criminal past, Morgan plays no key role in the Red Dead storyline, instead serving as a bounty for players to seek.
Commentary on social media reflects Everett Morgan's relative invisibility with several users saying they don't recall him, even if they've played Red Dead games in the past. One Reddit user mistakenly identified him as Ron Swanson from "Parks and Recreation," highlighting the character's lack of recognition in the gaming world.
Despite the release of the GTA 6 teaser, the game's hype hit new heights, breaking the record for the most views in 24 hours for a non-music video. While it could not quite match the astronomical popularity of BTS' "Butter," the achievement solidifies the gaming community's anticipation and enthusiasm. As fans eagerly anticipate the release of GTA 6, theories regarding the game's further surprises and disclosures beyond the captivating trailer exist.
