Product placement
GTA 6: This is a video game that is currently in development. The video discusses leaks and potential gameplay features. It ACTS as the subject of the video, and removing it would change the entire video. Rockstar Games: This is the developer of GTA 6. Their logo appears on screen and they are mentioned in the transcript. They merely APPEAR as the developer of the game, and removing them would not change what happens in the video.
