After years of waiting, bogus leaks, and one very big accidental leak, we’re finally getting a GTA 6 trailer – and it’s coming in a matter of weeks. The first GTA 6 trailer will debut sometime in December 2023, possibly during The Game Awards.
The news comes a few weeks after the internet collectively decided, without evidence, that Rockstar would debut a trailer in October and roughly a year after a huge GTA 6 leak showcased several minutes of incomplete gameplay. Rockstar co-founder Sam Houser made the announcement in a short statement on Twitter and the Rockstar website
“Next month marks the 25th anniversary of Rockstar Games,” Houser said in the statement. In 1998, Rockstar Games was founded on the idea that video games could come to be as essential to culture as any other form of entertainment, and we hope that we have created games you love in our efforts to be part of that evolution.”
We are very excited to let you know that in early December, we will release the first trailer for the next Grand Theft Auto. We look forward to many more years of sharing these experiences with all of you.
Thank you,

That’s all Houser said, but the fact that a GTA 6 trailer exists at all is something of a miracle in itself. The crime sandbox game reportedly went through several significant reboots as the team struggled to figure out a direction that worked for it – hence the long periods of silence.
If fan expectations are high, Publisher Take-Two has even higher hopes for the game. The company adjusted its financial outlook up for the next fiscal year and believes GTA 6 will set a “new benchmark” for entertainment in the years to come.
