The trailer for GTA 6 was recently released by Rockstar Games on their official YouTube channel. It has been garnering massive attention on social media. Fans are excited about the new features that the game promises to offer. However, in a creative twist, ‘Pubity Sport’ has turned some of the famous soccer icons like Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi into GTA VI characters.
The renowned social media page ‘Pubity Sport’ has achieved this feat with the help of artificial intelligence (AI). The Portugal captain, Cristiano Ronaldo, has been given a clean look. The veteran number seven dons black sunglasses. He further sports a black leather jacket and a gold-colored chain around his neck.

Argentina’s forward Lionel Messi has a hefty, long-bearded look. Messi wears a blue hoodie alongside a white-colored t-shirt. The 36-year-old sports a silver-colored chain around his neck. Leo also wears four rings on four different fingers of his right hand, complimented by a rather rugged-looking watch on his left hand.
Neymar Jr. donned a black blazer alongside a black tie. The Brazilian sported a white colored shirt underneath the blazer. His hairstyle looks a bit messy. To stand out in his sharp look, the AI gives the player funky yet visually striking sunglasses
PSG’s number seven Kylian Mbappe has been given the most casual-looking getup by the AI. Mbappe sports a plain black t-shirt underneath a solid gray-colored jacket. The forward dons cargo-type pants to complete his aesthetic look.
Ear piercings are also emulated in his image to make his character look quite sleek. All in all, it can be termed that AI has done a decent job of imitating how these soccer players would look in differently styled characters in GTA 6.
Cameo in the previous version of GTA by Cristiano Ronaldo
Cristiano Ronaldo made a cameo appearance in the previous version of the GTA, also known as GTA V. The legendary Portuguese player’s character saw him hitting his famous ‘Siuuu’ celebrations on the other characters of the game.
CR7’s character also played soccer on the streets in his cameo appearance. The 38-year-old’s appearance was designed in such a way that fans ended up loving it. His character also gets involved in stealing cars, which is one of the iconic features of the game.
With the CR7’s AI images as a character in the latest version of the game circulating the internet, this would seem like a rational throwback for the fans. However, they would love to see the veteran player as a character in the game, much like in the previous version.
