The revelation of the trailer aligns serendipitously with Rockstar's 25th anniversary, adding to the celebratory atmosphere. Although the precise date of the trailer release remains veiled in mystery, speculation points to two key dates: the exact anniversary in "December 1998" and the upcoming Game Awards on December 7. The latter, renowned for big reveals and industry announcements, could provide a fitting stage for the grand unveiling, though Rockstar has yet to confirm its plans for the event.
Rockstar's brief tease has left fans craving more, but the acknowledgment of the GTA VI trailer has certainly whetted appetites. The studio expressed heartfelt gratitude towards its global community of players, crediting their unwavering support as the foundation for its passion-driven game development.

The journey to GTA VI's announcement has been paved with a decade of rumors, intensified by a Kotaku report in 2020 highlighting Rockstar's workplace reforms. The studio confirmed the game was in active development in a 2022 press release, affirming the rumors and fans' hopes. An inadvertent leak later that year offered an unscheduled glimpse into the game's progress, which resulted in the arrest of a British teen for the breach.
While an exact release date for GTA VI remains unannounced, industry insiders speculate a launch window between April 2024 and March 2025. This forecast coincides with Take-Two Interactive's projected fiscal spike in the same period, fueling theories that the much-anticipated title will play a pivotal role in achieving those financial targets.
The upcoming trailer is expected not only to unveil the game but also to celebrate a quarter-century legacy of Rockstar Games—a testament to their longstanding influence on gaming culture and entertainment.
