Rumors about a new GTA 6 trailer dropping this week have been making the rounds, but let’s take a step back and look at the facts.
It’s the final week of December, and most people, including the team at Rockstar Games, are likely enjoying their holiday break.
This makes the idea of a surprise trailer release highly unlikely.
Where Did the Trailer Rumors Start?
The speculation started with a photo posted by a Rockstar developer, which some fans claim contains “clues” pointing to the number 27.
A GTA 6 leaks account on Twitter picked up the image and began analyzing it for hints.
The photo features a Rockstar-branded jumper with GTA 6-themed colors, some memorabilia, and even a piece of paper with a phone number on it.
Fans quickly noticed that the phone number belongs to a Florida-based auto shop named “27 Auto Sales.”
They also spotted what appears to be cat hair on the jumper, shaped like the Roman numeral “VI” (6).
Fans Are Connecting the Dots
For believers, the number 27 seems to appear in several places:
- Rockstar’s Instagram account currently has 27 posts.
- At the 27-second mark of the first GTA 6 trailer, a car with the number “27” on its rear window is visible.
- A license plate on a police car in the trailer adds up to 27.
Some fans even tied the number to the lunar cycle, noting there are 27 days in a lunar phase.
They claim the first trailer dropped during the Waning Gibbous moon phase, suggesting the next trailer could follow a similar pattern.
The Speculated Dates
Initially, fans predicted December 20 as the date for a new trailer, but that day came and went with no news.
Now, the focus has shifted to December 27. Others have even suggested January 14, which coincides with the next Waning Gibbous moon.
What’s the Reality?
Despite all the theories, there’s no solid evidence pointing to a new GTA 6 trailer dropping this week—or even in the near future.
Rockstar has always been tight-lipped about its releases, and it’s likely we’ll have to wait until 2025 for more major updates.
For now, fans will have to enjoy the speculation while waiting for official news.
As much as we’d all love another trailer, it’s best to keep expectations in check and enjoy the holiday season.
