LONDON — Internet personality Andrew Tate has once again stirred controversy on social media, this time with a post targeting fans of the highly anticipated video game Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6).
“You’re obsessed with GTA 6 because you have zero cars, women, yachts, money or action in your real life,” Tate wrote on X (formerly Twitter).
The post garnered over 75,000 likes, 9.1 million views, and sparked thousands of replies and retweets within a day. While some of Tate’s followers applauded the sentiment, many others criticized the statement as elitist and dismissive of gaming culture.
Tate, a polarizing figure known for his provocative online presence and past legal troubles, has frequently targeted gamers and those he views as lacking ambition. This latest jab has reignited debate about the influence of online personalities and the increasingly blurred lines between entertainment, criticism, and trolling.
Rockstar Games, the developer behind GTA 6, has not commented on Tate’s statement. The game, still in development, has amassed immense attention worldwide, with fans eagerly awaiting its release.
