Sony has invested heavily in advertising for players to recognize the PlayStation 5 as the best option to experience GTA 6; An effort that now shows signs of success.
The reaction of one of the most famous streamers in the world to the advertisements of this game shows that the marketing cooperation of Sony and Rockstar can even influence the choice of platform of the players.
Sony has spent a lot of money to associate the PlayStation 5 name with the highly anticipated game GTA 6. This collaboration can also be seen in advertising trailers; Where the phrase Plays Best on PS5 appears and encourages the audience to experience the game on the Sony console.
One recent example of this approach is the reaction of popular streamer IShowSpeed to the game's trailer. In a video, he asks his audience to experience GTA 6 on PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X. His friend then draws his attention to the Sony ad slogan and asks him to look at the relevant section again. See the reaction of this famous streamer from the link below:
After watching the trailer again, IShowSpeed announces its decision, saying:
Definitely playing GTA 6 on PS5.
He then adds, referring to the game's advertising message:
Why play it on Xbox when GTA 6 itself says it runs better on PS5?
Of course, this advertising slogan does not necessarily mean that the PlayStation 5 version is significantly superior to the Xbox Series X/S; The two versions are expected to have similar performance and visual quality; However, the more powerful hardware of the PlayStation 5 Pro can bring advantages to this console.
However, the importance of this campaign is not limited to technical differences. When a large audience like IShowSpeed repeats Sony's advertising slogan, the company's intended message reaches a wider range of players; People who may choose the PlayStation 5 without carefully considering the differences between the consoles.
The streamer's reaction is an example of the potential impact of Sony's marketing investment. As the release of GTA 6 approaches, the competition for players is heating up and Sony wants to make sure that the PlayStation 5 is associated with the experience of the game in the minds of the audience. Of course, to gauge the true success of this strategy, we will have to wait for sales figures and more reliable information about players' platform choices.
GTA 6 will be available on 28 Aban (19 November) for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S.
The GTA game series has an adult age rating, and it is necessary for families to supervise the access of children and teenagers to them.
