Firstly: Merry Christmas! Secondly: thank you for taking the time to visit GamesRadar+ on this day of Santa Claus and Jesus Christ. And Thirdly: thanks also for tuning in to Grand Theft Advent, our month-long celebration of all things GTA – a feature takeover that kicked off on December 1 with us speculating about when we might see the long-awaited and much-anticipated GTA 6 trailer, carried on through the unexpected early drop of said trailer a few days later, and spent the remainder of its 25-day run hypothesizing about what it all meant and what we might see next.
We're now at the end of the line for our Grand Theft Advent run, which means we're now also within touching distance of 2024. We know that GTA 6 is officially arriving at some point in 2025, which paves the way for an exciting 12+ months ahead for fans of the enduring open-world crime sim. To this end, I don't think it's a stretch to say 2024 will be one of the most exciting years for the series since its debut in '97 – perhaps even the most exciting to date.
