GTA 6 first official teaser posted by Rockstar Games

Rockstar Games has posted the first official teaser for GTA VI, and the moment is finally upon us... soon.

Late last month Rockstar Games announced that we'd see the first gameplay trailer for GTA VI in early December, meaning fans have spent most of today (1 December) on red alert. The good news is we finally have a proper update, and it's time to mark those calendars.

As confirmed by Rockstar on Twitter, the GTA VI trailer will land 5 December at 2pm UK time. This is it, kids, it's finally actually happening.

"We are very excited to let you know that in early December, we will release the first trailer for the next Grand Theft Auto. We look forward to many more years of sharing these experiences with all of you," Rockstar wrote on Twitter at the end of November.

"Next month marks the 25th anniversary of Rockstar Games," Houser added. "Thanks to the incredible support of our players worldwide, we have had the opportunity to create games we are truly passionate about.

"In 1998, Rockstar Games was founded on the idea that video games could come to be as essential to culture as any other form of entertainment, and we hope that we have created games you love in our efforts to be part of that evolution."

Rockstar Games insider Tez2 took to the GTAForums recently to reveal they've heard the studio doesn't expect GTA VI to launch until spring 2025, which is actually slightly later than we'd previously heard. Worse still, they suggest the game could yet be delayed further.

"Several devs expect the release window in 2025," they write. "A spring release is what's expected. But Rockstar aimed for a Spring release for both GTA V & RDR 2 in the past that was eventually delayed to a Fall release."
