We are not only getting close to the FIFA World Cup 2026, but also to Rockstar’s upcoming GTA 6 as well. The hype for both of these events is on a whole other level.

Now, there are some new rumors that are circulating around the internet, which suggest that Rockstar Games might be preparing a marketing campaign for the game during the World Cup 2026.

The anticipation for November 19, 2026, is super high and one of the biggest sporting events might make a perfect place for marketing. Let’s check out more details in this article.

GTA 6 rumored to appear during World Cup broadcast

The latest claims come from the social media insider TouchlineX on X, who recently claimed that Rockstar Games plans to air GTA 6 advertisements throughout multiple FIFA World Cup matches.

The exact details about these advertisements are still not clear. This campaign could include TV ads and promotional material before, during, or after the game, depending on the regulations of the various regions.

The upcoming FIFA World Cup 2026 is jointly hosted by the United States, Canada and Mexico, which makes it one of the largest sporting events in history with a massive global audience.

If these rumors are true, then we might be able to see GTA VI trailers, new footage, possible gameplay, promotion, pre-orders and more stuff.

Take Two CEO previously also stated that GTA VI marketing campaign will begin in Summer 2026, which also aligns with the World Cup 2026.

Do remember that nothing is officially confirmed by Rockstar Games or FIFA. Treat this information with a grain of salt.
