The gaming community is buzzing with excitement following the release of the highly anticipated GTA 6 trailer, which has already broken internet records. One of the interesting tidbits found in the trailer is a quick but cool Easter egg that connects to Rockstar Games' previous title, Red Dead Redemption. The eagle-eyed @tempestGTA on Twitter noticed a sticker in the trailer that resembles Everett Morgan, a character from Red Dead Online. While this character didn't appear in Red Dead Redemption 2, he's a wanted man in the online game, showcasing Rockstar's attention to detail and love for interconnecting their game universes. This has led fans to speculate about a shared timeline between the Red Dead and GTA series.

Beyond the Easter egg, the GTA 6 teaser has surpassed 101 million views on YouTube in less than 48 hours, steamrolling past GTA 5's reveal trailer stats and setting new records for the most-viewed video game reveal and non-music video on YouTube within a 24-hour window. Fans are already intrigued by the dual protagonists, Jason and Lucia, who are the focus of this trailer ripe with Rockstar's signature satirical edge.

Is Red Dead Redemption part of the GTA universe?

While Rockstar Games is known for its Easter eggs, there is no official confirmation that Red Dead Redemption and GTA share the same universe. The sticker resembling Everett Morgan in the GTA 6 trailer adds to fan speculation, but could just be a playful nod to fans rather than evidence of a shared timeline.
