Rumours are swirling that the second trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6 could drop very soon. Posts are circulating online claiming it could come out as early as April, according to a number of GTA 6 leak accounts. Hype for the video game seems to be at an all-time high, especially with the first trailer having more than 181 million views at the time of writing and breaking all sorts of YouTube records when it dropped in December last year.
The first trailer mainly focused on one of two main protagonists, Lucia, and set the scene for what can be expected in the state of Leonida, a fictional state based on Florida, including Vice City, or Miami. Lucia appears to be the first female protagonist in the series' history, garnering significant attention. Fans are eager to learn more about Jason, Lucia's partner, and speculate on their roles in the game, with theories ranging from being part of a gang to a 'Bonnie and Clyde' type duo.
Various theories and leaks online suggest different potential release dates for the second trailer, with some pointing to April and others to May. Speculation includes a possible announcement in May before Take-Two's final quarter earnings call, where plans for games releasing before April 2025 may be revealed. Take-Two, the parent company of Rockstar Games, is known for its Grand Theft Auto series.
Some fans have linked the potential release of the second trailer to the 90th anniversary of Bonnie and Clyde's deaths on May 23, 2024. Observers noted changes on Rockstar Games' website on March 11, where the first trailer was added to a section called Videos from Grand Theft Auto VI. While this suggests more videos to come, it took three months for the first trailer to be added after its release.
Comparisons have been drawn to the timeline of GTA 5 content releases, with the second trailer for that game coming out a year before the full game was released. Given speculation that GTA 6 may be released before April 2025, some fans believe this theory aligns with the potential release of the second trailer.
It is important to note that all information regarding the second trailer is based on theories and speculation at this time, with no official confirmation from Rockstar Games regarding the release date. Fans eagerly await further updates on the highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto 6.
