The absence of frequent announcements generates a scarcity effect that increases the impact of any official announcement. The Take-Two Interactive monitors social media to quickly take down unauthorized content. The technology industry follows the production cycle of GTA 6 as an indicator of consumption potential in the digital entertainment market. The scale of the project mobilizes hardware suppliers and retail networks on a global scale.
