Grand Theft Auto 6 is officially set to release in 2025, as revealed in the first official trailer released in December 2023. While the exact date is yet to be disclosed, fans now have a clear timeframe to anticipate the highly-anticipated installment.
Initially, insiders hinted at a 2024 release for GTA 6. However, the December 2023 trailer confirmed the game's arrival in 2025. The shift in the release window adds to the excitement and anticipation surrounding the game's launch.
The 90-second teaser trailer, released 15 hours ahead of schedule due to a leak, provides the first glimpse of Grand Theft Auto 6. Set in a Miami-inspired Vice City, the game introduces Lucia as the first female protagonist since the 1990s, sparking excitement among fans.
Rockstar Games responded to the leak by publishing the trailer earlier than planned. The move aimed to maintain the quality of the reveal and mitigate the impact of a low-quality, unofficial release.
Grand Theft Auto 6 serves as the sequel to the immensely successful GTA V, released in 2013. GTA V achieved the status of the second best-selling video game of all time, following Minecraft, setting high expectations for the upcoming installment.
With the release date confirmed for 2025, fans now have a countdown to the arrival of Grand Theft Auto 6. The anticipation and excitement surrounding the game continue to grow, making it one of the most awaited releases in the gaming community.
