Bloomberg: Rockstar Games to announce Grand Theft Auto VI “as early as this week”

Nearly 15 years ago, Rockstar Games announced a brand-new game: Agent, which ultimately never saw the light of day. And according to a former Rockstar employee, the would-be title had to be dumped in favor of Grand Theft Auto V. 

From The Last of Us and God of War to Mario and The Legend of Zelda (to name just a few), there has been no shortage of major gaming properties that are being adapted as TV shows or movies. And at a time where it feels like it’s only a matter of time before most major gaming franchises get snapped up for similar adaptations, it’s only natural to wonder when we’ll be seeing a Grand Theft Auto film.

Anticipation has been building for nearly two years since Rockstar Games first confirmed the development of GTA 6 in February 2022, following a wave of leaked gameplays from an early build of the game. After months of silence, the veil of mystery is finally lifting, as the company has announced the GTA 6 trailer for the highly awaited game and now, focus has shifted to the GTA 6 release date..

Rockstar Games is preparing to reveal the first trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6 in early December (perhaps at The Game Awards on December 7th). Despite leaks and reports of scaling down, there’s plenty of hype for the open-world title, rumored to release in 2025. Publisher Take-Two Interactive isn’t setting expectations, though.

The torturously long wait for Grand Theft Auto 6 is entering is final stretch now. With Rockstar Games having officially confirmed that it will be debuting the first trailer for the title in early December, the end is finally in sight for those who have been waiting for the series’ next instalment for over a decade. But of course, a question that many are still asking is- when exactly will the game come out?

Take-Two Interactive revealed today that Grand Theft Auto V has now sold over 190 million units as of the end of September 2023. According to the company, that brings total lifetime sales of the franchise to 410 million units. It announced this number the same day as it officially confirmed the next game in the series, the trailer for which it plans to reveal next month.

Long-suffering Grand Theft Auto fans have been waiting for the series’ next mainline instalment for over a decade now, and though the end is finally in sight, with Grand Theft Auto 6 set to be unveiled next month, GTA 5 continues to sell at an impressive rate, over a decade on from its launch.

After reports circulated by Bloomberg last night, Rockstar Games has officially announced it will be finally showing the first trailer of the next Grand Theft Auto to fans next month. 

Rockstar Games could unveil Grand Theft Auto VI this week, according to a report from Bloomberg.

We will be getting our first official look at a new entry in the Grand Theft Auto franchise next month.

Rockstar Games head Sam Houser confirmed today that the next Grand Theft Auto video game will be introduced in a trailer coming December.

Following rumors, Rockstar Games has officially confirmed that it will reveal the first look at Grand Theft Auto 6 in December.
