Rockstar Games created a big hit with GTA 5 in 2013. The game’s renewed graphics, remarkable details and the fact that it can be played on many platforms were highly appreciated by the players. Now, the company, which announced the new game of the series exactly 10 years later, shared the GTA 6 trailer and is preparing to present it to the players exactly 12 years later.
The released trailer of the game exceeded 100 million views in a short time. It even made its name in the Guinness Book of Records as the most watched game trailer on YouTube within 24 hours.
However, the ‘Flo Rida Joker’ character in the game trailer caught the attention of the real Flo Rida Joker, namely Lawrence Sullivan.
It is quite difficult to ignore the similarity between the character in GTA 6 and Lawrence Sullivan. The tattoos on the character’s face are quite similar to the tattoos on Sullivan’s face. However, there are a few differences between the news images in the game and the game version. These differences are not very noticeable and attract the attention of many people. Just as he caught Sullivan’s attention.
To see the mentioned details in more detail, you can watch the trailer below.
As you can see towards the end of the trailer, Rockstar Games added a character to its game that is a reference to the real Flo Rida Joker. Game fans who saw this said that there was a reference to Lawrence Sullivan, who attracted attention with his mug shot shared in 2017, which caught Sullivan’s attention. Then, Sullivan called out the producers of the game by showing the tattoos on his face on his TikTok account.
“You may have seen this character in GTA 6. I am Flo Rida Joker. The trailer was shared today. They used this character, you see. Do you know who inspired the tattoos on his face? Me. Look at me. Flo Rida Joker. You know what I’m talking about.
GTA, we need to talk.”
It is not clear whether Sullivan contacted Rockstar Games after this call. However, he is not the first person to call out the company because of the similarities in the game. Because Lindsay Lohan sued the company for her resemblance to a character in GTA 5, but lost this case.
It is a matter of curiosity what action Lawrence Sullivan, who brings this incident to mind, will take. GTA 6 seems to be one of the most popular games in gaming history.
