Erling Haaland's gaming setup is insane — and he's just as hyped for GTA 6 as we are

Caught a day-in-the-life video from Erling Haaland and the guy's gaming corner is something else. He's got the Xbox mini fridge stocked with MTN Dew and Coke, not just sitting there for show. Even joked about wanting an Xbox sponsorship, though with all the layoffs over there lately he might be waiting a while.

He's clearly a big Xbox fan but there was a DualSense on the desk too, so he's not picking sides. The setup itself is where he does LAN parties with friends, which is pretty cool for a pro footballer.

What got me was his taste in games. He called the original Modern Warfare 2 one of his top three ever, then said Minecraft and GTA are his desert island picks. And when GTA 6 came up he just said "I can't wait for the new one." Same, Erling. Same.

He's also got FC 24 in his library with his own face on the cover, which is a flex I didn't know I needed.

So now I'm wondering: would a Haaland cameo in Leonida be hilarious or just too forced? Like, imagine him as a random pedestrian doing the meditation pose on the beach.

He's got an Xbox and a DualSense. Two trailers (Dec 2023, May 2025) showed zero celebrity NPCs.

Exactly. Rockstar isn't about that fan service life.

Give me a REAL drift king posting up at Port Gellhorn handing out touge missions. Not some footballer doing stretches on Vice Beach.

I'm good. Just let me get lost in the mangroves north of Ambrosia and I'm set.
