The first trailer of the long-awaited Grand Theft Auto VI, which Rockstar Games presented in December 2023, has conquered new heights! The video has reached an incredible 250 million views and collected more than a million comments on the official YouTube channel of the developers.

Here's What We Know

These amazing figures refer only to the main trailer released by Rockstar Games. Of course, this video has been shared and re-uploaded many times by other accounts, which has significantly increased its reach.

To date, Rockstar has only released this single trailer in late 2023. Millions of fans are eagerly waiting for new information from the developers - whether it is a second trailer, fresh screenshots, new gameplay details, or even a hint of future announcements. However, Rockstar has not yet confirmed or even hinted at a possible date for the disclosure of new details.

Rockstar's parent company, Take-Two Interactive, will publish its next financial report on 15 May, and although such events are sometimes accompanied by announcements of upcoming game releases, this is not always the case. In any case, this date will undoubtedly become a red mark on the calendars of all GTA superfans hoping to get a new piece of information.

Grand Theft Auto VI is scheduled for official release in autumn 2025 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. With Mafia: The Old Country in August and Borderlands 4 in September from Take-Two, some players speculate that GTA 6 could be released in October, but this is still just speculation. Take-Two itself has also warned about the possible postponement of GTA 6 to 2026. So, despite the amazing success of the first trailer, fans can only be patient and wait for official news from Rockstar.
