A year ago, the first trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6 was released, sparking a massive global hype. GTA is one of the most well-known game franchises ever, and fans had been waiting for years for news. The trailer showed that the game was really coming, but now a year has passed with no new updates. Fans are wondering what Rockstar Games is doing and when more information will be released.
The announcement of the trailer at the end of 2023 was already big news. Rumors and speculations had been building for months, and December 5th was finally chosen as the date when the trailer would be released. Everything seemed perfectly planned, but during the night of December 4th to 5th, the trailer leaked. This forced Rockstar to release it online earlier than planned. It caused a lot of chaos: editorial teams around the world had to quickly react to analyze everything, update overviews, and create videos. It was hectic, but also a moment that everyone will remember.
The trailer itself was spectacular. It showed a beautifully detailed world and gave a glimpse of what the next generation of open-world games might look like. Fans were immediately excited, and the footage quickly went viral. GTA 6 quickly became one of the most talked-about games, not only within the gaming community but beyond. It demonstrated the huge influence of Rockstar and the GTA series.
However, since that trailer, there has been little news. The release of GTA 6 is still scheduled for fall 2025, but there is little to keep fans excited. Some hope that a second trailer will be released soon, as Rockstar showed more footage a year after the first trailer for previous games like GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2. But Rockstar is known for taking its time and often delaying games to improve quality. It’s very likely that we’ll have to wait a while longer.
Despite the lack of updates, the first trailer remains an important moment. It offered a glimpse of what GTA 6 promises to be: a revolutionary open-world game that raises the bar once again. Even without new footage, the game remains a topic of conversation, and fans eagerly await what’s next. GTA 6 is already a phenomenon, and the story has only just begun.
