While the Game of the Year race is heating up—with strong contenders like Split Fiction already making a splash, and highly anticipated releases like the new Death Stranding and DOOM on the horizon—one game reigns supreme in terms of anticipation: Grand Theft Auto VI. The burning questions on everyone's mind are: When will the next trailer drop? What's the official release date? And what exciting new features await us? It's been over a year since Rockstar Games unveiled their first—and only—teaser, leaving fans yearning for more. Throughout 2024, radio silence from the developers only intensified the speculation.
GTA VI O’Clock, a reputable Grand Theft Auto news channel run by gaming journalist Dan Dawkins, offers some insightful speculation on the timing of the next trailer. Based on their analysis of Rockstar's past marketing strategies, a new trailer is predicted to arrive in the coming weeks.
Considering Take-Two's previously stated Fall 2025 release window, a new trailer appearing in March or April makes sense, followed by a significant marketing campaign lasting 5-6 months—a familiar pattern for Rockstar's major releases.
GTA VI O’Clock suggests early April as a potential debut for the trailer. However, given the abundance of fan theories and rumors swirling around, it's advisable to await an official announcement from Rockstar rather than fixating on a specific date.
