appetizer main course dessert, where are we in gta 6 marketing right now

Saw someone break the GTA 6 marketing cycle into a three course meal and now I can't stop thinking about it. The extended look was definitely the appetizer. It gave us a taste of Leonida, the two protags, some actual gameplay systems, but it was still just a sampler. Now we're in the main course and Rockstar is serving it up hot.

This week has been nonstop. Ads everywhere, billboards, whatever else they've got cooking. It feels like they flipped a switch and decided to own every conversation until launch. I don't think we're getting a separate gameplay trailer at this point. The extended look already covered that ground. A dedicated gameplay trailer would just be retreading what we saw in August. Rockstar doesn't do that this close to release.

If the main course is this final marketing blitz, then dessert has to be something special. Could be a launch trailer with a killer song, a surprise celebrity cameo, or maybe a last minute story tease that makes everyone lose their minds. Rockstar loves to drop something nobody expected right before launch. They've done last minute drops before and they'll do it again.

I'm not worried about them running out of steam. They've been quiet for so long that they've got a full pantry. The next month is going to be a feast. I just hope the game itself is the dessert and not some weird marketing stunt.
