Fans had expected the second GTA 6 trailer on December 27, but only received an X-Post regarding the current sale in the Rockstar Warehouse. The disappointment was great, but speculation continues nonetheless.

After the success of GTA VI’s first trailer, fans eagerly anticipated a second one on December 27, 2024. This speculation arose from an analysis of the initial trailer and its perceived hints, which ultimately proved baseless.

The community was deeply disappointed when Rockstar Games shared an X-post promoting their Holiday Sale instead of unveiling the anticipated new trailer. The Holiday Sale, running until January 7, offers discounts of up to 70% on games and merchandise but provides no fresh details about GTA 6.

Fans between frustration and speculation

While many fans reacted with humor, comments on X and platforms like Reddit reveal widespread disappointment. The community is frustrated not only by the absence of a new trailer but also by Rockstar's slow marketing approach and lack of transparency. Adding to the dismay are growing fears that the highly anticipated GTA 6 might be delayed until 2027. One Reddit comment captures the mood perfectly:

"They’re even delaying the announcement announcing that they’re delaying the game."

Despite the letdown, fans remain eager to guess when the second GTA 6 trailer could be released. One X user even derived a potential release date by analyzing the discount percentages mentioned in Rockstar Games' Holiday Sale post:

20+50+70+30= 170 Divide that by 7 You get 24 January is the first month of the year. So the next GTA VI trailer will be released in 25 days. January 21, 2025. 

While a January release for the second trailer cannot be ruled out, it remains pure speculation. To avoid further disappointment, fans would be wise to only get excited about the next GTA 6 trailer once Rockstar Games officially announces it.
