GTA 6 trailer: Did it give away the Grand Theft Auto 6 prologue mission? Check details

Grand Theft Auto games have always had memorable protagonists. Be it GTA Vice City's Thomas "Tommy" Vercetti, GTA San Andreas' Carl "CJ" Johnson, or GTA 5's Michael, Trevor, and Franklin, all have become iconic for playing a big role in one of the most gaming franchises of all time. As such, high hopes are pinned on GTA 6, Rockstar's next big game, and the sequel to 2013's GTA 5. The first GTA 6 trailer has already premiered, giving us a glimpse into the world of GTA 6, its setting, as well as the two protagonists. Yes, there will be two playable protagonists this time around! But who are they?

Even though the launch of Grand Theft Auto 6 or GTA 6 is almost two years away, it has already started shattering records. The GTA 6 trailer amassed a staggering 93 million views in the first 24 hours, breaking the record for most views in the initial 24-hour period for a non-music video, overtaking the previous record of YouTuber Mr. Beast. Although it did give away the game's setting as well as the protagonists, the GTA 6 trailer did not reveal much about the likely mechanics, missions, and such. However, leaks have already given us a glimpse into the world of GTA 6. Check out the top 5 GTA 6 rumours.

Arion Kurtaj, the 18-year-old hacker responsible for the infamous Grand Theft Auto 6 leak from last year, was sentenced to indefinite custody at a “secure hospital,” according to the BBC. Kurtaj was deemed unfit to stand trial due to what BBC called “acute autism,” and will spend the rest of his life at the hospital unless doctors find him “no longer a danger.” He was found guilty on 12 charges that include fraud and blackmail.

GTA 6 is already breaking records despite being at least a year away from release.

The GTA6 trailer has officially crash landed, blowing up Youtube and everywhere else on the internet with a blistering sizzle reel of social media madness. Like a swarm of crabs in Florida, we’re about to descend on this beached whale – because we’re taking a quick look at some of the tiny, tiny details in this trailer. Some of these are definitely Easter eggs. Some are observations, tiny secrets, references to previous games or just stuff we’ll find when we’re playing the full game sometime in 2025 on PS5 and Xbox Series X.

There was little doubt that the GTA VI trailer would do well in terms of viewership. Still, the debut video of Rockstar's massively anticipated new game surpassed even the rosiest expectations.

The recently-released trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6 was officially released following a leak, prompting developer Rockstar Games to release the trailer earlier than it had planned. Soon after the dust had settled with the trailer’s release, however, several developers from the studio have voiced their disappointment about the trailer being leaked.

In the first day since its release, the reveal trailer for the hotly-anticipated Grand Theft Auto 6 has proven to be quite popular. At the time of publishing the trailer has now been seen more than 96 million times. The trailer, released yesterday, is the first bit of Grand Theft Auto 6 that has been shown off to the world.

The Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer is finally out! After nearly a decade of waiting, Rockstar Games has finally released the GTA 6 trailer albeit in a manner it wouldn't have liked. On November 8, the Take-Two Interactive-owned publisher announced that the GTA 6 trailer would be released in early December. And just a few days ago, Rockstar Games set the GTA 6 trailer release date as December 5, 6:00 AM PT. To the company's dismay, the trailer was leaked online before Rockstar could release it. Now, we have a proper first glimpse into the world of GTA 6 (officially called GTA VI), and it confirms what leaks have suggested before.

This week on the Eurogamer Newscast, we discuss the first ever trailer for GTA 6 which was finally released following a tease from Rockstar, after the trailer leaked online ahead of schedule.

Doom scrolling social media looks to have replaced the age-old pasttime of watching TV in GTA 6, which has prompted feelings of alternating despair and increasing irrelevance in me this morning. I barely understand how TikTok works in real-life, let alone a video game pastiche of it, and oh god, how did I get so old and craggy? I'm just here for the nice-looking flamingos, Rockstar, not a 24/7 twerk stream I can access from the palm of my hand. Of course, TV watching may yet have been preserved beyond what we've seen so far in the first trailer for GTA 6, but even if it's been consigned to the bin of modern history, there might yet be one light in the TikTok-esque darkness to make GTA 6's in-game social media network worthwhile.
