But will the game feature in-game ads? **You can check out more GTA 6 content in the video from our partner SanInPlay:** **Check** [it](https://youtu.be/zP160lciVW8) **out on YouTube:** [🚨 IT’S NO COINCIDENCE… GTA 6 MARKETING IS STARTING NOW…](https://youtu.be/zP160lciVW8) In this scenario, many players have begun to speculate whether the company would use **Leonida**’s world to profit from real-world advertising within the game, forming “product placement” partnerships, such as billboards for famous brands of soda, clothing, or cars. The answer to that? Probably **not**. ## Rockstar Games’ golden rule [During the "iicon" conference](https://viciados.net/marketing-gta-6-comecou-acontecendo/) , **Take-Two Interactive** CEO **Strauss Zelnick** commented on the company’s vision regarding advertising in the franchise. According to **Zelnick**, the tradition of using fictional brands that parody real companies (such as **Sprunk**, **Pißwasser,** and **eCola**) will remain a pillar for maintaining the game’s essence. "*So, in the case of GTA as intellectual property, as you know, it’s a fictional world and everything in it is fictional*," explained **Zelnick**. "*As a result, we don’t run the risk of, for example, partnering with brands, because all the brands are fictional. I think that keeps us pure*." ## Will GTA 6 have ads? To reassure fans who feared the game would be turned into a giant billboard for real-world ads, **Zelnick**was very direct when discussing the risks of forcing this type of commercial partnership into a video game.

"*Everyone knows that if you overdo the partnerships, it’s a disaster*." In other words, fans can breathe a sigh of relief: the streets of Leonida will continue to be dominated by **Rockstar**’s unmistakable, biting humor, without real-world brands breaking the magic of our beloved virtual criminal underworld! **Check out:** - [Exclusive: Rockstar Games has just uploaded GTA 6 files to its servers; see our investigation](https://en.viciados.net/exclusive-rockstar-games-has-just-uploaded-gta-6-files-to-its-servers-see-our-investigation/) - [For GTA 6?
