During an earnings report at the end of 2024, CEO Strauss Zelnick mentioned its &#8220;exciting new titles coming in Fiscal 2026\u2014including Grand Theft Auto 6 in the fall.&#8221; Reference to FY26 puts GTA 6&#8217;s launch no earlier than October 2025.<\/p>\n<p>The big question at this point is platforms: Yes, it will undoubtedly come to PC (see more on that below) but whether our version will launch simultaneously with the console release, or if we&#8217;ll have to wait several months (or a year) as we have with previous Rockstar games remains to be confirmed.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"what-s-in-the-gta-6-reveal-trailer-6\">What&#8217;s in the GTA 6 reveal trailer?<\/h2>\n<div class=\"youtube-video\" data-nosnippet >\n<div class=\"video-aspect-box\"><iframe data-lazy-priority=\"low\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/QdBZY2fkU-0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The first GTA 6 trailer doesn&#8217;t dive deep into details about the game, but it does seem to confirm a lot of what was previously rumored, including a &#8220;Bonnie &#038; Clyde-inspired&#8221; criminal duo as the lead characters in the game, and a Florida-like setting in the GTA universe&#8217;s equivalent: the state of Leonida. Both of those details came to light through earlier leaks.<\/p>\n<p>Other signs of a Florida-inspired setting include an airboat that&#8217;s briefly visible in the early stage of the trailer, and those flamingos and night-time shots of the city, both of which look like direct lifts from Miami Vice. (Which I admit makes up pretty much the entirety of my knowledge of Florida.) A less obvious tell is the song in the trailer, Love is a Long Road by Tom Petty\u2014a native of Florida.<\/p>\n<p>Portions of the video also emulate Instagram and TikTok-style social media posts, which could provide some interesting gameplay twists depending on how (or if) the social mechanic is integrated into the game, and of course there&#8217;s an abundance of nice cars, scantily-clad women, glitter and grime, and bad behavior throughout. It is definitely a Grand Theft Auto trailer.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ve also started picking out all the <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/gta-6-cars-list\/\" target=\"_blank\">GTA 6 cars<\/a> that appeared in the trailer.

Based on what we&#8217;ve seen\u2014and info gleaned from prior rumors and leaks\u2014it seems like GTA 6 will feature dual protagonists, following a criminal couple in their Bonnie &#038; Clyde-style lawbreaking.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond that, we&#8217;re still in speculative territory, and don&#8217;t worry: People are speculating. Already, there&#8217;s a fairly prominent story theory that started circling in the aftermath of the GTA 6 reveal. The trailer begins with Lucia\u2014one of our two heroes\u2014in prison, before showing glimpses of her and her partner undertaking robberies and car chases, presumably after her Lucia&#8217;s release. However, after spotting an ankle bracelet on Lucia in the game&#8217;s official key art, some internet conspiracists think the events in the reveal trailer are actually playing out in <em>reverse\u2014<\/em>that the shots we see of the partners in crime are showing what gets Lucia incarcerated.<\/p>\n<p>Interesting implications, particularly when considering how the trailer shows Lucia and her partner committing to trust. Perhaps a kind of &#8220;Chekhov&#8217;s pinkie-swear,&#8221; if you will.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"what-do-we-know-about-gta-6-characters-6\">What do we know about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/action\/grand-theft-auto\/gta6-characters\/\" target=\"_blank\">GTA 6 characters<\/a>?<\/h2>\n<p>While the GTA 6 reveal trailer shows plenty characters, we still don&#8217;t know much about the game&#8217;s primary cast, aside from the confirmation of its protagonist partners.

Rockstar&#8217;s past with PC versions has been a bit erratic, but the immense popularity of both GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2 on PC is a great reason for Rockstar to take the platform seriously.<\/p>\n<p>And it seems like Rockstar feels the same, considering it released the Rockstar Games Launcher on PC in 2019. It&#8217;s hard to believe the studio would release its own games launcher if it didn&#8217;t plan on hosting its future games there, including GTA 6. That said, we can probably expect a gap between the release of GTA 6 on consoles and PC. It took GTA 5 a year and a half to come to PC, and RDR2&#8217;s gap was almost a year as well.<\/p>\n<p>The full announcement for GTA 6 also suggests that the PC version will come later: It says &#8220;Grand Theft Auto 6 is coming to PlayStation 5 computer entertainment systems and Xbox Series X-S games and entertainment systems in 2025,&#8221; but makes no mention of a PC release.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"article-body__section\" id=\"section-gta-6-online\"><span>GTA 6 Online<\/span><\/h2>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:3840px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"qP3WoFjqpQsW6XfcDa5hnJ\" name=\"Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer 1 00-01-06.jpg\" alt=\"gta 6 trailer\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/gta-6-what-we-know-about-rockstars-return-to-vice-city-7.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"1\" width=\"3840\" height=\"2160\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"expandable\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Rockstar)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"will-there-be-a-gta-6-online-6\">Will there be a GTA 6 online?<\/h2>\n<p>Almost certainly. While GTA 5&#8217;s online Los Santos has yet to run out of gas, with Rockstar still regularly adding new activities, content, and events to its big multiplayer world, it&#8217;s hard to imagine GTA 6 would skimp on a multiplayer offering. Given that GTA 4, GTA 5, and both Red Dead Redemption games have had online servers, it feels like a must-have for GTA 6.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"article-body__section\" id=\"section-gta-6-leaks\"><span>GTA 6 leaks<\/span><\/h2>\n<h2 id=\"what-was-in-the-gta-6-leaks-6\">What was in the GTA 6 leaks?<\/h2>\n<p>The <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/heres-another-alleged-gta-6-leak-this-time-with-video\/\">big dump of leaked footage<\/a> from GTA 6&#8217;s first major leak may still be floating around, but unless you&#8217;re extremely interested in picking apart debug footage you aren&#8217;t missing much.
