IGN Exclusive Report

“I think GTA 6 is going to be massive. It’s going to hoover up all the internet’s attention... and when GTA Online 2 launches next year, it does it all over again.” — Dan Clancy, CEO of Twitch

This simulator computes the Hoover Effect using Dan Clancy’s forecasted two-phase cycle: initial release content shock followed by multiplayer persistence.
