Rockstar Games, developer of the iconic Grand Theft Auto franchise, appears ready to finally unveil the long-awaited next installment in the series, potentially as early as this week according to new reports.
Rockstar Plans Surprise GTA 6 Reveal To Celebrate 25th Anniversary
Sources familiar with Rockstar’s plans indicate that the studio aims to announce Grand Theft Auto VI within days to commemorate their 25th anniversary.
This would be a monumental surprise, as eager GTA fans have awaited news on GTA 6 for years since the last major entry, Grand Theft Auto V, launched back in 2013 on PS3 and Xbox 360.
But Rockstar always likes to mark major milestones for the company. With the original Grand Theft Auto first releasing in October 1997, the timing is perfect for an announcement.
GTA 6 Trailer Reportedly Dropping Next Month As Well
Shortly after the announcement, Rockstar also intends to publish the first trailer for GTA 6 in December to keep the 25th anniversary celebrations going strong, according to sources.
This would give fans an early glimpse into the look and feel of the next GTA universe.
Where Will GTA 6 Be Set?
Much speculation has swirled regarding the potential setting for GTA 6. Recent rumors suggest a return to Vice City, Rockstar’s fictional version of Miami first featured in 2002’s Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.
The studio has a pattern of reimagining their past GTA locations in new games, so this would make sense.
Possible Evolving Map With Multiple Cities
Other leaks have indicated GTA 6 may boast an evolving, expanding map with multiple cities, allowing players to seamlessly travel between various islands or across state lines.
If true, this could dramatically transform the scope of GTA going forward.
GTA 6 Gameplay: Major Innovation Expected
No matter the setting, fans can expect Rockstar to push boundaries and revolutionize gameplay once again.
Cutting Edge Graphics Powered By New Consoles

Multi-Layered Side Content
GTA’s signature sandbox freedom will be taken to new heights with meaningful side content that ties back into the main story for maximum impact.
Bold New Narrative Directions
Rockstar’s skill for gripping narratives and multidimensional characters will bring GTA 6’s world to life. Rumors point to possible multiple protagonists as in GTA 5.
Evolution Of GTA Online

Rockstar Poised To Redefine Open World Gaming…Again
