The Battlefield 1 trailer is the most liked trailer on YouTube

Well that escalated quickly

The reveal trailer for Battlefield 1 has risen to the most liked trailer of all time for any movie, TV show, and video game on YouTube, in just four days. At the time of writing the Battlefield 1 trailer has 22.5 million views and almost 200,000 likes, making it the most liked trailer in any category in the matter of four days, which is unbelievably fast.

While the Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare has managed to reach the top five list of most disliked trailers with its 16 million views and 1.5 million dislikes in just a week, the Battlefield 1 trailer has gone the complete opposite way. It almost looks as some sort of conspiracy.

To put this in perspective, the Grand Theft Auto V trailer has 44 million views and 281K / 6K likes/ dislikes, Fallout 4 has 19 million views and  291K / 5K likes / dislikes. Even big movies like the Avengers don't come close to the numbers of likes or dislikes. Something is going on with the Call of Duty and Battlefield trailers.

Getting either 1.5 million dislikes like Call of Duty and almost 1.2 million likes like Battlefield 1 in less than a week is not the norm. Whether it's just a snowball effect of the initial hate and love for the two franchises or someone using bots to convey their messages of hat and love is not known yet, but this sure is sometime extra.

Battlefield 1 releases on October 21 so gamers can decide for themselves whether or not these YouTube numbers held any actual truth in them when Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare releases November 4.
