The Greensboro Police Department in North Carolina joked on X that Grand Theft Auto VI should hurry up and release so people would stay home and officers could “catch a break.” The post drew widespread attention, with fans noting the irony of police welcoming a game centered on crime and police chases. The reaction fits the department’s broader social-media approach: its coordinator, Patrick DeSota, uses humor to connect with the community, and several posts have gone viral. GTA VI is scheduled to launch on November 19, 2026, and the department’s post added to the anticipation surrounding its release.
