New 'Grand Theft Auto VI' Tease Has Players Theorizing About the Moon

A new tease for Grand Theft Auto (GTA) VI has fans of the franchise theorizing about the moon which they believe could relate to when the game will be released.

On top of this, a former Rockstar Games developer teased that the latest entry in the franchise could be coming out later this month. They noted that fans should prepare for the release of the second trailer of GTA VI.

Grand Theft Auto VI Tease

The individual in question is Ben Hinchliffe who previously parted ways with Rockstar Games in 2021 after being involved with work on GTA VI.

He hyped that the next entry in the franchise will set standards similar to other titles, such as Red Dead Redemption 2 and GTA V.

Hinchcliffe said that people only have to look at how every game that Rockstar Games has released has evolved in one way or another. He added that every element of these games moves forward in becoming more realistic for gamers, according to Comic Book.

Other than this, the theory about the moon and GTA VI's release comes as many people are trying to piece together various information and clues regarding the game. There is one image in particular that has been circulating recently.

This is the GTA Online Vinewood sign from last year that seemingly showed the images of V and I letters being suspiciously lit more than other letters.

People also theorized that the phase of the Moon seen in the image hinted at when new information about GTA VI will be shared.

Potential New Information

Rockstar Games teased the first GTA VI trailer on Dec. 1, 2023, when the Moon was a waning gibbous. This coincided with the original image where the Moon was also in this particular phase, PCGamesN said.

Now, the latest official GTA Online image that the developer has shared features the Moon, resulting in fans speculating. What makes it even more noteworthy is that the Moon is once more in its waning gibbous phase.

Some people believe this could mean Rockstar Games is preparing something. This could be sharing the release date of GTA VI. Others speculate that it could be a tease for the game's next trailer. The latter could provide new details about the latest entry in the series.

The particular phase of the Moon that is seen in the images will be visible in real life on Nov. 22, 2024. This is why many fans believe that Rockstar Games will share some new information about GTA VI at this time, according to Gaming Bible.
