It should be noted that there is no evidence to prove his involvement in this future release. 'JRE' fans should note that in 2020, Spotify became the only place to listen to Rogan's podcast.
This implies that it will not be included in 'GTA 6', particularly if the exclusivity agreement is extended past 2023.
According to reports, the podcast host has signed $200M deal with Spotify. The inclusion of his episodes in video games like 'GTA 6' has not been announced by Spotify either.
'GTA 6 will feature episodes of JRE'
Audioviser said in its article, "A trusted source close to Rockstar Games has revealed that the much-anticipated 'GTA 6' will feature episodes of 'The Joe Rogan Experience' (JRE) as part of the in-game radio lineup."
According to a website, Rockstar Games could play entire episodes or only a portion of them on radio stations to fit 'Grand Theft Auto 6's story.
The rumor was subsequently disseminated across numerous additional websites.
After the rumor went viral on social media, Internet users started reacting to the news. A fan demanded Andrew Tate be included in the game. He wrote on Instagram, "We want andrew tate tbh."
The idea did not sit well with other users. One reacted to the statement saying, "Dude seriously you should find better idols. Human alpha males don’t exist."
Another replied, "Hahah he’s such a t**t, I can’t believe people give him money."
