Rockstar Games has announced that it will debut the first trailer for “the next Grand Theft Auto” — widely assumed to be titled Grand Theft Auto 6 — in early December.

In a brief note sent to press and shared on X (formerly known as Twitter), Rockstar co-founder and president Sam Houser said that the timing of the trailer was to mark the 25th anniversary of the founding of the hugely influential studio.

It will also be over 10 years since the last GTA game, Grand Theft Auto 5, was released, during which time it has sold over 185 million copies and become the second-best-selling game of all time.

We are very excited to let you know that in early December, we will release the first trailer for the next Grand Theft Auto. We look forward to many more years of sharing these experiences with all of you.

Thank you,
Sam Houser

Houser’s statement comes in the wake of a report by Bloomberg, published late Tuesday, that the official announcement of GTA6 was imminent. Bloomberg said the game would be announced “as early as this week,” with the trailer to follow in December to mark the anniversary.

“Next month marks the 25th anniversary of Rockstar Games,” Houser said. “Thanks to the incredible support of our players worldwide, we have had the opportunity to create games we are truly passionate about — without you, none of this would be possible, and we are so grateful to all of you for sharing this journey with us.

“In 1998, Rockstar Games was founded on the idea that video games could come to be as essential to culture as any other form of entertainment, and we hope that we have created games you love in our efforts to be part of that evolution.
