GTA 6 unveils Macca & Friends, an in-game animated TV show
GTA 6 reveals Macca & Friends animated TV show

Rockstar has released a new trailer for GTA 6, this time dedicated to an animated TV show led by a pink alligator. The show, titled Macca & Friends, is one of the satirical in-universe programmes housed within the game.

What is Macca & Friends?

Macca & Friends follows a pink alligator called Macca as he ventures across the state of Leonida with his wetland friends. Among these friends are a crab called Pinche, complete with gold necklace bling, a flamingo, and some kind of platypus-looking creature.

The animation channels adult cartoons like Rick & Morty and BoJack Horseman, and is described as a series. Episodes are expected to be scattered across Leonida, likely viewable on television sets within the game world.

Satirical TV in GTA

GTA is known for housing in-universe radio and TV shows with a satirical bent, and GTA 6 looks set to continue that tradition. In GTA 5, players could find several shows on TV sets, ranging from the X-Factor style reality show Fame Or Shame to Kung Fu Rainbow Lazer Force, a parody of Power Rangers.

These shows are broadcast via the in-game network WEAZEL. Macca & Friends is set to release on November 19, when GTA 6 drops.

Pre-load and release

Those who have pre-ordered GTA 6 can pre-load the game now, with physical copies, albeit without a disc, already in the wild.
