Grand Theft Auto 6 Announcement Coming This Week, First Trailer Debuts in December – Rumor

We know you’ll find this hard to believe, but if this rumor is true, it seems Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic is still in production after all.

At some point in early December 2023, the first trailer for the long-awaited will be released by developer Rockstar Games. While the announcement of a first official look at the game was met with online fanfare from the fanbase, it has not stopped the near-constant stream of leaks and rumors — and one rumor in particular is incredibly interesting for story-mode aficionados. A recent leak on the site GTAForums, alleges that Rockstar is planning to elongate the lifecycle of by releasing updates to keep players engrossed in a way that could change the franchise forever.

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..

To call eagerly anticipated would be a monumental understatement. Fans of the franchise and 's predecessor,, have had over a decade-long wait since the most recent release in the series. While a ton of release date leaks and rumors have proliferated on the internet for several years, a recent announcement by the game's developer, Rockstar Games, suggests the long wait may be approaching its end, and a specific date in December is very likely to bring a trailer.

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?

GTA 6 is getting a trailer in early December, Rockstar Games has confirmed. The news follows a recent report claiming that the developer was planning an announcement ‘as early as this week.' Studio co-founder Sam Houser attested to those claims, adding that next month also marks Rockstar's 25th-anniversary celebration, and thanked players for their continued support over the decades. It's been over 11 years since Grand Theft Auto V launched in 2013, which at the time of writing has sold over 190 million copies — 5 million of them were sold in Q4 2023, thanks to next-gen upgrades and the GTA Online segment still going strong.

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