• Kent Alex Pedersen (GTA enthusiast since 1997): Live gaming featuring easter eggs and glitches from GTA V and GTA IV – UFOs, film references, and bizarre phenomena.

The evening concludes with a quiz and the opportunity to dive deeper into the history of gaming's most debated and beloved universe. Grand Theft Auto VI launches on November 19 and is anticipated as one of the most hyped game releases ever.
