Rockstar is yet to share details about Grand Theft Auto 6, but fans are convinced an announcement of some sort is imminent. Why? Because of the moon.
The developer recently released a new image for GTA Online's Moon Festival, which you can see above. This image was shared as part of a blog post about GTA Online which — on the surface at least — was all fairly standard stuff.
But it's the Moon Festival image which is getting attention — as some fans believe Rockstar is actually teasing the series' next entry in this seemingly straightforward picture.
The theories start out simple and logically enough. In the background of the image you can make out GTA Online's famous Vinewood sign. However, the sign itself has been obscured by the two characters (in their Red Happy Moon T-shirts) in a way that leaves only the letters V and I visible. And, of course, VI side by side like that makes six in Roman numerals.
Many replies state this is clearly an intentional GTA6 tease by Rockstar, and perhaps it is.

According to the post, Grand Theft Auto and Red Dead Games have typically been announced on a Tuesday in October. Meanwhile, the moon in the image matches this evening's lunar phase.
