Rockstar Games has sparked reactions among GTA 6 fans with a recent announcement that many believe is a misstep. Following months of speculation and leaks, the highly anticipated GTA 6 trailer debuted on December 4, 2023, attracting over 220 million views on YouTube. Fans eagerly await more details about the game's progress, but the latest teaser from Rockstar has left many underwhelmed.
On the first anniversary of the original trailer's release, Rockstar revealed plans for a big announcement on December 4, 2024. However, this “major reveal” turned out to be a new event for GTA Online, offering players free cosmetic DLC. While some players appreciate the gesture, the timing has led to frustration among the GTA 6 community, who had hoped for a more substantial update regarding the upcoming game.
