Alleged GTA 6 voice actor claims first trailer may be on the way
Just a few days after revealing he was cast in the game, an alleged GTA 6 voice actor has said the game’s first trailer is coming soon.
GTA 6 is one of the most-anticipated games in development today, despite the fact we know very little about it. But a voice actor claiming to be working on the upcoming sequel has said that the first trailer might be coming sooner than first thought.
Although it is one of the most talked-about games in recent memory, we still know precious little about GTA 6. Without any concrete details to go on, fans have been looking to leaks for any small amount of information they can get hold of.
Now, hot on the heels of the GTA Remastered Trilogy rumors, a voice actor who had previously claimed to have a role in GTA 6, is saying that the game’s first trailer is right around the corner.
Voice actor Dave Jackson claimed recently that he is playing a new character in GTA 6. In a Facebook post, he announced that he is allegedly portraying Captain McClane, the chief of police in whichever location the game ends up taking place.
Jackson later took the post down, saying he was “bombarded” with reporters looking for details on the next Grand Theft Auto title. But he did leave fans with another little tease.
The post said that the game’s producers had given him permission to “spread the word” that a new trailer is coming soon, hinting that fans of the series should look out for its release in the near future.
It remains to be seen if Jackson’s claims prove to be true. As it stands there is no official confirmation from Rockstar about his role in GTA 6, or whether or not a trailer is really planned to release soon.
As known leaker Tom Henderson said on Twitter, the fact that actors are supposedly only just being cast for the upcoming game hints that it may be “much earlier” in development than previously reported. This could mean that a full trailer is actually some way off.
That being said, with GTA 5 Enhanced Edition releasing on November 11, Rockstar might see the next few months as the ideal time to start building even more hype with a short teaser. Stay tuned on Charlie INTEL for all the latest updates.

Who is the most popular Apex Legends character? Season 11 pick rates
Apex Legends Season 11 is well underway, but who has dominated the pick rates for Season 11 of Respawn’s battle royale so far?
Season 11 of Apex Legends has tons of characters to choose from to enjoy its several maps. But who has the top Season 11 pick rates in Respawn Entertainment’s battle royale shooter?
Apex Legends hit the ground running when it launched with eight different characters to choose from in its battle royale offering. The game suffered a notable lull when Call of Duty: Warzone launched, but with many players jumping ship to Respawn’s game in Season 10, Apex Legends Season 11 has benefited from continued support from gamers and streamers alike.
There are now a whopping 19 different Legends to choose from, giving players a headache before each game. The newest one is Ash, she debuted alongside the new Storm Point map.
Between the Arenas mode and Ranked Leagues to compete in, thousands of matches have already been logged in Season 11, and we will break down and find the Legends with the highest pick rates in Season 11.
Apex Legends Season 11 pick rate ranked list
This is our complete list of every character pick in Apex Legends, and we’ve ranked them in order to let you know which are favored.
Here is every Apex Legends pick rate in Season 11 ranked, as of January 18, 2022, according to Apex Legends Status:
- Wraith – 12.9%
- Octane – 12.4%
- Bloodhound – 9.6%
- Pathfinder – 8.6%
- Valkyrie – 7.5%
- Lifeline – 5.5%
- Ash – 5.4%
- Bangalore – 5.1%
- Loba – 4.5%
- Horizon – 4.4%
- Fuse – 4.1%
- Caustic – 3.9%
- Gibraltar – 3.7%
- Mirage – 3.1%
- Revenant – 2.2%
- Wattson – 2.1%
- Seer – 2%
- Rampart – 1.6%
- Crypto – 1.5%
Most picked Legends in Apex Legends Season 11
5. Valkyrie – 7.5%
With Ash being knocked out of the top 5 most picked Legends since her release at the start of Season 11, Valkyrie has officially taken her spot with a 7.5% pick rate.
Valkyrie is great in Season 11, with unbelievable mobility thanks to her passive Jet Pack. This allows her to reposition and get in and out of situations with ease, arguably having the best potential to survive out of all Legends due to great mobility.
Valkyrie’s Ultimate is great for maps like Storm Point, as there are no Jump Towers and so her Skyward Dive offers useful rotations. Her Ultimate is great for getting the team into a spot for final circles, as you’ll be able to fly above and past enemy teams rotating into the zone.
4. Pathfinder – 8.6%
Pathfinder has consistently been one of Apex Legends’ top five picks at 8.6%, and counting, for quite some time now.
As a Recon class, Pathfinder simply excels in movements and traversing the game’s various maps. His Grappling Hook and Zipline Gun are simply invaluable assets that will help any team in a pinch – either because of the circle or a third-party situation. He consistently manages to stay in the top 5 as a result.
3. Bloodhound – 9.6%
Again, with the influx of new Apex Legends players, Bloodhound is a great character to use for new players in Season 11.
Bloodhound nearly always stays in and around the 8-11% mark as a season goes on, and they currently stand at 9.6%. They are easily the top Recon class to use in Apex Legends, thanks to their tracking tools and incredible skills, plus, their Beast of the Hunt Ultimate is priceless.
2. Octane – 12.4%
With a 12.4% pick rate, the speed demon takes the number two spot, continuing his reign as one of the most popular Legends in Season 11, fluctuating between the top two places.
Aside from his amusing quips, he is the perfect balance of offense and defense. Despite being regarded as an offensive Legend, Octane can greatly increase his sprint speed which is useful for both attack and running away.
But most Octane users thrive on his Launch Pad Ultimate which can send him, and friendly players, high up into the air.
1. Wraith – 12.9% – Most picked Legend in Apex Legends Season 11
Another starting Legend, Wraith has been a consistent pick throughout Apex Legends’ lifetime, and she has taken the number one spot with a whopping 12.6% pick rate in Season 11.
Wraith’s stand-out features are her ability to get out of trouble very quickly – teammates included. Her abilities allow her to sense danger, become temporarily invulnerable, and create portals to escape predicaments. It’s easy to see why Wraith continues to be an absolute fan-favorite in Apex Legends Season 11.
That covers all the picks in Apex Legends Season 11. As always, buffs and nerfs will come and go throughout the season, altering the game’s meta, and subsequently, Legend pick rates.
We’ll be sure to keep this updated regularly so you can stay on top of the in picks and don’t forget to check out leaks for the Apex Legends Season 12 collection event.

Apex Legends dev teases Season 12 map changes
Apex Legends players are speculating after one of the Respawn Entertainment devs hints at map changes coming for Season 12.
A Respawn Entertainment employee has given players a slight hint towards what to expect in Season 12.
With Season 12 of Apex Legends just a few weeks out, players are excited to find out what’s in store.
As well as Mad Maggie possibly being the next Legend and Crypto finally getting his Heirloom in the Season 12 Collection Event, one of the devs has hinted at further changes coming in Season 12, which has the community speculating.
Respawn Entertainment’s World Director Eduardo Agostini put out a tweet on January 17 hinting at map changes. The tweet mentions Season 12 being “a few weeks away” from release, as well as giving the fans something to ponder when it comes to map changes.
Whenever a new season of Apex Legends is released, players are given new content. Most of the time, this entails map updates to give familiar areas a refresh, keeping the game entertaining.
It seems Season 12 will be doing the same, as the tweet mentions a brand new “skybox.”
As Season 11 saw only two maps in rotation, Storm Point and World’s Edge, players are expecting to see either King’s Canyon and Olympus to return, or perhaps even both.
This hint at a “masterpiece of a new skybox” for one of Apex Legends’ maps has got the community questioning which map will see changes. The fact that the dev has given something away as small as this suggests there is something much bigger in store for players when it comes to map updates.
Further, a new “masterpiece” skybox suggests that something drastic has happened on the map, as it doesn’t sound as if it is a simple lighting change.
Players are speculating that it could be Olympus, which hasn’t seen map changes since Season 9. Olympus was also last seen with ships entering its skybox, and the infestation of an alien plant being brought on the map through the POI Icarus.
Having said that, players in the comments of the Reddit post are uncertain about which map could be getting an update:
“I’ve literally read posts from people on different sources telling me that leaks/datamining all confirm that KC, Olympus, and Storm Point are the map being updated next season lol. I don’t think there’s ever been this level of uncertainty about what the update is.”
We’ll have to wait and see exactly what Respawn has in store for players in Season 12 of Apex Legends when official news is out. Stay tuned to charlieINTEL as we’ll be covering it all.
