Summary
Following the release of theGrand Theft Auto 6trailer, Kick streamer Adin Ross claimed that he was cast in the game. Ross is known forplayingGrand Theft Auto OnlineRP, and was once banned for showing nudity in the game while streaming it.
Developer Rockstar Games had been dealing with severalGTA 6leaks and rumors for years before it officially released any information about it. As early as 2019, fans caught wind thatGTA 6would feature the franchise’s first female protagonist. This was later confirmed in the official trailer, which was dropped a day early after it was also leaked online.
Shortly after thepremiere ofGTA 6’s trailer, controversial Kick streamer Adin Ross tweeted out that he was cast in the game. He said that he couldn’t speak much about it, and claimed that fans would see him in the nextGTA 6trailer. He also thanked Rockstar Games for the opportunity to be part of “the greatest game ever.”
There were mixed reactions to Ross' announcement, with many accusing him of lying about hisGrand Theft Auto 6casting. Meanwhile, some congratulated him on the milestone and expressed their excitement. It’s important to note that Rockstar hasn’t confirmed Ross' claims or even mentioned any big cameos appearing inGTA 6.
Streaming and content creation have grown significantly over the last few years, so it’s not surprising that many video game companies have tapped popular names to work with them. For example, VTuberKson will be appearing as a hostess inLike a Dragon: Infinite Wealth. There are also instances wherein content creators are cast to do voice acting work in games, like YouTuber Jacksepticeye inBendy and the Ink Machineand most recently,Fears to Fathom.
While it is possible that Ross could appear inGTA 6, people should take his claim with a grain of salt until Rockstar confirms it. If it is true, Rockstar probably tapped Ross because of his popularity onGrand Theft OnlineRP servers, as well as his overall reach as a streamer. The only question would be whether Ross' alleged role inGTA 6would be significant to the story or just a cameo as one of the NPCs in Vice City.GTAfans might need to keep their eyes peeled.
