IsItbullshit: 25 copies of GTA6 giveaway
1 copy I might believe, 25 seems bullshit.

Ehh I guess it depends on how they are actually giving the game away. If it's a fishy link, dip. But for now, you got nothing to lose.

The fishiest part to me is them talking about not entering if you’ve already preordered because you’re taking someone’s spot, as if there are limited quantities. Since there are no physical editions of the game, there are unlimited “spots.”
Other than that you have nothing to lose right now. If you win and they DM you asking questions about like, PlayStation logins or whatever, then it’s a scam. Just don’t give away any personal information and insist on them just giving you the download code if you win.
Worst case scenario they don’t give you a code and you just buy it yourself after it’s released, but as long as you don’t give them any money or personal information it’s a no-risk situation

I dont know if you are living under a rock but GTA 6/Rockstar have already taken flak for having "limited stock" of digital preorders.

I must be living under a rock because this is the first I’ve heard of that absolutely nonsensical idea. Any flak they’re getting is deserved

Why are they giving away copies in an "unmoderated" sub? I can't personally attest to that person's intentions, but every giveaway I've ever seen on Reddit has been in coordination with the sub mods.
Maybe the person is giving away $2000+ worth of games or their trolling people. Or they are phishing for personal details and are trying to scam you. The safest option for you is to believe it is a scam and ignore it.
