GTA 6 fans make fools of themselves again with the December 27 theory: no second trailer
For weeks, people have been theorizing that the second trailer for GTA 6 will be released on December 27th, unfounded rumors that cause mass hysteria.
We all know that GTA 6 is the most anticipated game of the 21st century. More than 10 years separate us from a fifth installment that made history, especially with its online mode. There is a great desire for a new Grand Theft Auto. Already on the first anniversary of the reveal trailer, we told you that it was 12 months of real mass hysteria. What if the moon phases, what if the alleged details hidden in the images of GTA Online... everything. Hype from fans thirsty for information. The last one was to heat up the whole community with this December 27, the day on which supposedly the second trailer would be released. Spoiler: nothing is ready. We must continue to wait to return to Vice City.
The only trailer you’ll see for GTA 6 on December 27, 2024 is the one from a year ago.
All the alleged leaks from the Rockstar Games website database have been shot down by people who actually know what they’re talking about. And it’s not with supposed inside sources. No. It is with data. Spider-Vice, one of the most respected users of the GTA forums, has already warned that there is absolutely no real evidence of changes to the files on the site. But the believers decided to keep on believing, those who stare at the finger when it points at the moon.
Even the actor behind Michael in GTA 5 fed the faithful by trolling on X (old Twitter). A user on the game’s official Reddit bet £500 that we wouldn’t hear from the game today, and if we did, he’d donate the money to cancer research. He was taken for a fool, but time has proven him right. At the time of writing, it is 9 a.m. on the east coast of the United States. There is already activity in New York City and absolutely nothing to indicate any movement in the company. The reality is that many of the studio’s employees are enjoying their well-deserved Christmas break. Releasing such an important trailer on December 27th makes no sense for anyone involved.
At Meristation USA, we had been discussing how long we would have to wait to see new trailers for the previous titles in the franchise. And while all signs pointed to us seeing something last week, we knew that Rockstar would have the final say.. 2024 has been an empty information box about GTA 6, and the only hints have been known from the president of Take-Two, who is obviously the one who should inform investors about their future moves. The launch remains in the same confirmed timeframe, barring any last-minute changes. We know that, and that it will be way bigger and way better” than we all thought.
These last-minute changes may be for show, but not within the team. Jason Schreier, a respected journalist at Bloomberg, said that his sources assured him that several deadlines had been missed during development. However, this is a common process for Rockstar; given the ambition of their games, they always tend to catch up. The 2024 scenario is different. It is not enough for them to arrive just in time, but in the best possible conditions. In the absence of official figures, Take-Two’s investment must be one of the largest ever seen in modern video games. It must arrive in optimal conditions.
2025 is the year when everything will be decided: launch or delay until 2026.
