No GTA 6 Trailer a Year After Reveal as Fans Wait for Official Update From Rockstar Games

If you didn't notice, it's been a year since the first trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6 broke the Internet. After years of speculation, leaks and rumours, Rockstar Games posted the GTA 6 reveal trailer on YouTube on December 5, 2023.

Grand Theft Auto 5 reveal trailer was published on November 2, 2011. The second trailer detailing the game's three playable protagonists, released April 30, 2013 — nearly 18 months after the first one.

Rockstar still may release an update on GTA 6 this month, but it's looking increasingly likely that we'll only see more official details about hotly anticipated game in 2025. Rumours about a second trailer, however, continue to surface on daily basis, all of them based on very thin conjecture.

The first trailer for GTA 6 focused on the game's female
