We Got a John Cena Heel Turn Before GTA 6 — and He’s in on the Meme

Image
John Cena followed up his shock heel turn at WWE Elimination Chamber by posting a Grand Theft Auto 6 image on social media, showing he’s well aware of the meme. For the uninitiated, the 12-year wait for Rockstar to release GTA 6 has spawned a meme in which people highlight the surprising things they got before GTA 6’s release date. In this case, it was a John Cena heel turn — his first in 20 years and a narrative shift many thought would never happen.

Clearly in on the meme, Cena took to Instagram to post an image of GTA 6 alongside its 2025 release window to his 21 million followers.

While it’s clear that Cena’s a GT...

Over the weekend — which just so happened to coincide with Monster Hunter Wilds ' launch on Friday, February 28 — Steam logged 40,270,997 simultaneous players, breaking its previous record of 39.9 million players set in February 2025. In fact, according to SteamDB , Steam's concurrent record, seen by some as a way of measuring the success of Valve's digital platform, has been broken almost every single month since May 2024, with the concurrent peak rising from 35.5 million users to 40.2 million in a little more than six months. And while that number includes idle players — that is, players with Steam open but not necessarily using it — the number of users actively in a game has hit a new record, too, jumping from 12.5 million to 12.8 million. Steam saw a surge in player peaks across most of 2024, break...
