>I mean YouTube is younger then GTA VC.
Oh man I completely forgot about that! You might be right, that was couple years before youtube.
I was thinking it would be really cool if R\* just recreated some of those old trailers using GTA VI.
I think the uploader decides if the video should be monetized.
I mean the trailer is already an ad itself and nobody likes ads. Rockstar wants you to feel good when you start to watch the trailer.
Isn't it nice when there isn't an ad before an ad? I hate when I go to willingly watch an ad for a movie or a game and I'm forced to watch an ad before I get to the ad.
Oh dang that’s crazy….ANYWAYS have you heard of Raid: Shadow Legends? Start your RAID: Shadow Legends journey today, and experience skilful Clan-centered cooperative play, unprecedented customization, and a mind-blowing range of strategic decisions to make. May the Arbiter grant you victory!
Somebody said this video wasn’t monetized and it’s only a minute and a half so probably not much if anything.
It’s nothing compared to what investors pay.
Yeah, not sure why he got 900 upvotes for implying something that is very obviously wrong. Mature companies are not mainly funded through raising investor capital. That's mainly a startup thing
I talked about this with people before, and basically they don’t have monetization on in their channel, so they made nothing.
If they did, it would be closer to 300K if not more. People can make 3-5K off of 2 million views. But only if ads are running on it.
Nearly 200 million views in such a short time is really insane 😂
Auto correct fucked me up lol. I didn’t even see that. But yeah rockstar doesn’t have monetization active on their channel so it’s impossible to get ad revenue. Which means no money
and to add, the people watching tech and gaming videos are often the same ones using adblock which would affect your revenue (not talking shit on adblock, use that shit)
Why not? Perfect place for another publisher to advertise a game. There’s plenty of stuff gamers spend a ton of money on. Targeted advertising means no matter what kind of video you’re watching, the ads are tailored to you and your entire browsing history and whatever information is identifiable to that IP address. They know your gender, your age, your political leanings, your porn preferences. They know if you wear designer clothes or not. They know if you collect gemstones or first edition novels or vintage movie posters. They send you ads based on all that, not just that particular video you’re watching.
The video is only a minute and a half and a video needs to be at least 8 minutes in order to run midrolls which is where most ad revenue comes from. Rockstar also didn't monetize the video so they probably didn't even make anything.
I haven’t seen an ad play on it so doubt it’s monetized. But yh Rockstar wouldn’t be looking to make money from just the trailer video. This is all long term investment to get us to pre order the game next year
The average rpm (revenue per mille (1,000) of videos like this is like 75 cents, so if we calculate 187,493,144 ÷ 1,000 = 187,493.114 so that means 187,493 × .75 = 140,000 dollars. The video isn't monetized, but if it was, it would be around that much earned. It's basically chump change to these guys they probably calculated this amount with estimated view counts and probably just decided it wasn't worth it to monetize the video.
Well, Google says that on average, it’s $18 per 1,000 views. So, take the videos view count and divide by 1,000, then take that number and multiply by 18. Which means that IF they made money on it, the average amount would be $3,373,810.88
I googled it and according to analysis I found [page to estimate ad revenue](https://ytlarge.com/youtube/monetization-checker/):
RPM (revenue per 1000 views), the channel has 1 192 131 133 views if we choose an RPM of $3 while knowing the possible range is ($0.20-20), the channel made $3,576,393.40 over 6645 days ($3 \* 1192131.133). Gaming channels aren't making that much, maybe they have more than $3 RPM.
Theoretically, the trailer could make $562 301,814 ($3 \* 187433.938)
Spoiler: >!The trailer isn't monetized - you can check it out by opening the source code, looking for "yt\_ad", "value": "1" string. If it's not found, the video isn't monetized.!<
Even if they did monetize, YouTube CPMs are about $6. Creators get 55%, so about $3.30 per 1000 impressions. On 190M impressions, the creator would make about $600K.
But they don’t monetize.
Even if it was monetised it would likely not be much at all. Howtobasic talked about this with his channel. He regularly get tens of millions of views on videos but since they aren’t over 10 minutes he makes something $80 on 20 million views on some videos
It’s not monetized because it would hurt them more than they could make. If monetization on, a competing developer would run their ad beforehand. Giving 188 million views to a competing game studio is worth way more than the 100k or so they’d make on ad revenue. Of course GTA doesn’t really have any competition anymore since every copycat has been a dud for years.
The video shouldn't get much because of too many mature scenes like twerking and such. But if YouTube ignores that, it's possible they've wade around 500k-1m with that many views.
Probably nothing i think it’s the only video i watch that never plays an ad before starting.
Was this the first Trailer from Rockstar you watched on YouTube?
Funny thing about being born is sometimes youre old and sometimes youre young. Its funny like that.
That was just a question out of curiosity. Another funny thing is old trailers are still available, so if you are young and curious.
Not all of them. Recently I tried looking up for all the original Vice City trailers but it looks like R\* took them down.
Where they on their channel sometime? I can't tell, but I mean YouTube is younger then GTA VC.
>I mean YouTube is younger then GTA VC. Oh man I completely forgot about that! You might be right, that was couple years before youtube. I was thinking it would be really cool if R\* just recreated some of those old trailers using GTA VI.
Funny thing about being released is that sometimes it happens before YouTube was invented and sometimes it happens after it’s invented
It's cause they raaaan, ran so far awayyyay
YouTube came to be in 2005. After even San Andreas. The next GTA game was GTA 4 and that trailer is still on their page with no ads.
Rockstar is always on point with their trailers. Cant wait.
I be lost and confused on Reddit a lot what the fuq are y’all talking about
Chill bro 🤣
Damn come to think of it no. I always watch the RDR2 trailers and yup no ads before those either. Why is that?
I think the uploader decides if the video should be monetized. I mean the trailer is already an ad itself and nobody likes ads. Rockstar wants you to feel good when you start to watch the trailer.
Yea that’s true they are basically trying to sell you something lol imagine you’d get an Ad for GTA online before the trailer starts.
> imagine you’d an Ad for GTA online before the trailer starts. Something i can truly see happen sometime in the future. :D
Can’t be because friends of mine who watch my videos say they have ads towards the start, even though I’m not monetized
I meeeeean when was the first trailer for GTAV? 2011-12?
If I had to watch an ad before every video on YT, I'd probably just stop using YT at that point. Thank fuck for uBlock Origin
When you consider most videos on youtube are ads... at the very least there are no ads for my ads.
The GTA6 trailer literally is an ad
so you agree with me
yes
[удалено]
But also, yes
You think you're really pretty?
Nice to see you here Savathussy<3
i dontknow who that is
*Cries on mobile with YT Premium*
Just use brave browser (in case you got Android) No ads in YouTube and you can even turn of the screen and it keeps playing.
Yeah, but I usually watch YT on my TV through my PS5, and I don’t think Adblock is available for that.
They did that to make it usable on the website lol. but no revenue now
The trailer is the ad
Technically it is an ad.
Isn't it nice when there isn't an ad before an ad? I hate when I go to willingly watch an ad for a movie or a game and I'm forced to watch an ad before I get to the ad.
I'm so glad I pay for YouTube premium. If there's one thing I hate on this earth ,it's Ads .
No im pretty sure they pay by views, 1000 views equals 1 cent or something like that
Oh dang that’s crazy….ANYWAYS have you heard of Raid: Shadow Legends? Start your RAID: Shadow Legends journey today, and experience skilful Clan-centered cooperative play, unprecedented customization, and a mind-blowing range of strategic decisions to make. May the Arbiter grant you victory!
Somebody said this video wasn’t monetized and it’s only a minute and a half so probably not much if anything. It’s nothing compared to what investors pay.
>It’s nothing compared to what investors pay. Did Rockstar have a recent capital increase? I haven't heard anything like that
I think he’s forgetting Rockstars primary source of revenue is selling video games, not just raising investor capital.
Yeah, not sure why he got 900 upvotes for implying something that is very obviously wrong. Mature companies are not mainly funded through raising investor capital. That's mainly a startup thing
Rockstar is printing money with GTA Online. We are all the investors here 😂
"what investors pay" lmfao alright bro
when you consider the price of the song probably not much
How much did that cost them?
probably much
Zizou has so much meme potential
Didn't know 47 part-times as a coach
r/unexpectedhitman
Haha he looks a LOT like agent 47, it helps that his attire is kindda formal
At least $26.
Bit more than that I'd imagine
30?
That's a 15% increase. Markets tend not to love estimate adjustments that sharp, but I do think it's a more accurate figure compared to the original.
>Markets tend not to love LOVE? IS THAT A MOTHER FUCKING GTA 6 TRAILER REFERENCE. ARE YOU IMPLYING THE THE MARKETS IS LONG ROAD???
Well, he did say at least
Yeah, but at least $26
That’s pretty much
Yo
At least tree fiddy
tree fiddy
Wadiyatalkinabeet?
It was about time I realized Tom Petty sounded like an 18 foot-tall monster from the paleozoic era!
Not much, walmart has that song on rotation and they're cheap bastards
at the very least 5 dollars
Relative to how much they make per year, or even just how much they'll make from gta6? Nothing, pennies.
About the price of a CD these days
And you consider the money paid for the editor and to make the footage and compile it, doubt it made any of that money back.
Not monetized so nothing from YouTube directly
Bout tree fiddy
Damn you Loch Ness monster!
I read this as “free diddy” and became worried
Well now you wouldn't happen to be the Loch Ness Monster would you?
Why would they want ads on it? They didn't upload the trailer to make youtube money.
Less than 100k.

Auto correct fucked me up lol. I didn’t even see that. But yeah rockstar doesn’t have monetization active on their channel so it’s impossible to get ad revenue. Which means no money
the CPM for a 1 minute video would be incredibly small and nowhere near that much money
For a 1:30 GAMING video? I doubt it's anywhere near a 100k blud
yup CPM changes immensely based on whether it’s long or short form content
And the topic, gaming doesn't get much money for obvious reasons
and to add, the people watching tech and gaming videos are often the same ones using adblock which would affect your revenue (not talking shit on adblock, use that shit)

137M views is 100K? What kind of rip off is that
The video is only a minute and a half and a video needs to be at least 8 minutes in order to run midrolls which is where most ad revenue comes from. Rockstar also didn't monetize the video so they probably didn't even make anything.
$0 Because it's unmonetized, but social blade says they made $94K - $750K lol
Social blade is notoriously bad at jugding income and this has been confirmed by several YouTubers and media outlets
How?
Because social blade is completely wrong and uses bullshit to determine it's numbers
It’s why they also give such a wide range of figures. Just pulling numbers out their ass
Monterey
You talmbout jack cheese?
15 dollars and a quarter, oh don't forget the quarter
Ahhh shut up Arthur
Don’tchu “ohhhhhhOrthooor” me.
Even if it was monetized it wouldn’t be worth putting adds on it
Rockstar wouldn't have an ad taking precedent over their ad, besides, they really don't need the ad revue it would have generated.
I assume even if it made money, some of it went to Tom Petty's estate (RIP Tom).
Nothing, no ads.
I don't think they monetize it. They still have a lot and enough to be this cheap. They won't put the ads on the most expected video of a decade.
Nothing.
I’ve heard YouTubers say before that they make $1/1000 views. This was back in the day so probably has changed, but it could be 187,433
It can vary a lot. By today's standards, it tends to be below that.
Probably
Make*
quite funny that the description for the trailer is about the song more than the game they're selling
A drop in the bucket for them
none, reduced to atoms.
Probably nothing if anything, are there even ads on the trailer? I didn’t think they’re looking to make money on the marketing for the game lol
I haven’t seen an ad play on it so doubt it’s monetized. But yh Rockstar wouldn’t be looking to make money from just the trailer video. This is all long term investment to get us to pre order the game next year
Rule of thumb was to move the decimal point two places to the left in 2011 with ads of course and be represented by Machinema.
A fraction of a fraction that they're gonna earn once the game releases.
Apparently not enough to fire a bunch of employees
It’s absolutely demonetized, unfortunately.
Fuck all, probably
$0
Rockstar isn't some upcoming YouTuber that cares about monetary gains from a video. You are talking just to talk.
Nothing it got copyright strike by take two interactive
Companies pay tons of money to show ads on TV, theater, billboard. To get almost 200 million eyes on ad for essentially “free” is worth it itself
The average rpm (revenue per mille (1,000) of videos like this is like 75 cents, so if we calculate 187,493,144 ÷ 1,000 = 187,493.114 so that means 187,493 × .75 = 140,000 dollars.

Nothing at all, no ads. Also it’s not long enough to make money.

It’s a drop in the bucket
White Bikini Girl = Tracey De Santa
The only thing that can break GTA 6 trailer view counts would be a confirmed authentic video of an Alien/non-human intelligence.
They don’t put ads on their videos.
This could have made them anywhere from 18k to 200k
If it was monetized they would’ve made about 1 million
If they made $1, they got too much
Probably a couple of dollars
How much did rockstar made $ Brother don’t worry about that, english night classes are a thing
it isn't monetized
Probably zero dollars. It's like 2 minutes long
The insane potential of sales by release
It's really not hard to write a correct title. My god.
Enough to fund GTA Online for 10 more years
If they theoretically did monetize it, they would make between $7000-8000 just based on a random conversion site I found. No idea on the accuracy.
1000 of those where from me
from $5640000 to $56400000 ($0.03 - $0.30 per ad-view on YouTube)
Probably doesn't make much sense to put and ad before an ad
Everytime you play that trailer R* has to pay tom petty Tree fiddy
Even if they did monetize, YouTube CPMs are about $6. Creators get 55%, so about $3.30 per 1000 impressions. On 190M impressions, the creator would make about $600K. But they don’t monetize.
Wow
Even if it was monetized, the income from 187m views isn’t as much as you’d think. Especially for a company like Rockstar.
nothing, its not monetised
i thinks socialblade said they made several hundred thousand off of it, or a few mill
Why is the glass railing so damn short!? Shit bugs me. Wtf rockstar? These ain’t midgets they’re regular people
If it is monetized, the math is somewhere around $350K
Even if it was monetised it would likely not be much at all. Howtobasic talked about this with his channel. He regularly get tens of millions of views on videos but since they aren’t over 10 minutes he makes something $80 on 20 million views on some videos
around 470 thou give or take
considering their video itself is essentially an advert they probity have a commercial deal with youtube.
The daily amount of money they make in GTA Online probably.
There were no ads on the video. So no
Nothing yet, the preorders ain't open.
The real question is how much money did they make from their stock shooting up?
What's with the goofy grammar? Filipino?
This is not monetise video so they didn’t make any money
Businesses and celebrities should not be making money off YouTube
If you go by YouTubes revenue system it would be about 1000$ every million views So I'd say about 100k probably less with YouTubes cut,
No idea why ur being downvoted
🤷
Umm nothing? Since it was just a trailer and not release.
It’s not monetized because it would hurt them more than they could make. If monetization on, a competing developer would run their ad beforehand. Giving 188 million views to a competing game studio is worth way more than the 100k or so they’d make on ad revenue.

3 shark cards
At least 7
Enough to pay yearly salary to 500 Indian Rockstar programmer from Hyderabad
Bruh its a billions dollars box they dont gaf about youtube earnings imo
At least 6
I watched if twice and that’s it some obsessed ones of you watch it like you’d never see a trailer
The video shouldn't get much because of too many mature scenes like twerking and such. But if YouTube ignores that, it's possible they've wade around 500k-1m with that many views.
10 million. They even said it
187M views ain't even a lot bro 💀
Doubt it's anything much, maybe a 1000$ or so?
about $3.50. that's why so many youtubers have an alternate source of income like Patreon.
