Say what you will about the seemingly interminable road to GTA 6, but don't tell me it hasn't been exciting. When GTA 5 landed on September 17, 2013, and its multiplayer offshoot GTA Online arrived two weeks later on October 1, I don't think anyone would have thought we'd still not have the sixth explicitly numbered Grand Theft Auto in our hands in the latter stages of 2023 – not even, I reckon, Rockstar itself.
It's been such a long road that when I woke up this morning, Wednesday, November 8, I did not expect to learn that GTA 6 could reportedly be announced "as early as this week," with a trailer next month. A few hours later – after a tidal wave of online excitement, furious speculation, heated debate and discussion, and even shared tales of a GTA 6 sleuth who thinks they've already located the official trailer, but who no one believed until now – I certainly didn't expect Rockstar to confirm the rumors by officially announcing GTA 6 with a trailer, indeed, coming next month.
