Last year, fans found a peculiar image within the GTA Trilogy. Specifically inside GTA: San Andreas‘ Lil’ Probe’Inn bar, where there are pictures of iconic locations from across various Rockstar’s games — only with UFOs within each frame. However, one picture wasn’t from any existing Rockstar game, leaving many to believe it was a GTA 6 teaser.
We might finally know what all that was about finally. As noted by Dexerto, well-known leaker Tez2 claims that the UFOs hint at an upcoming Halloween event for GTA Online.
“16 days before Halloween, Rockstar will start featuring UFOs within GTA Online,” Tez2 said via the unofficial GTAForums. “On October 23rd, the stealth UFO will appear instead of the regular UFO model.”
Later in the same thread, Tez2 explains how this might relate to GTA 6.
“There’s no in-game hint towards GTA 6 within [GTA Online] files. Rockstar is cautious enough not to do that. But the hint may arrive within the tweet Rockstar will prepare to talk about the UFOs happening on GTA Online,” Tez2 continues. “We may receive a tweet like this one from Rockstar, except the newspaper may have a small extra section below suggesting tropical storms in two days or something like that. Thus, hinting at GTA 6‘s announcement.”
While teasing one of the biggest video game sequels ever through a Halloween event sounds like a reach, Rockstar is known for untraditional announcements. So who knows!
Last month, whispers began of GTA 6 having a female protagonist. Some were upset about that potential outcome but (thankfully) got a hazing for it.
