Rumors Swirl Around GTA 6 Trailer Release on April 1, but Is It Real?

News Desk

Islamabad: As anticipation for Grand Theft Auto 6 continues to build, eager fans are dissecting every possible clue regarding the game’s next trailer. The latest speculation suggests that Rockstar Games might unveil the second trailer on April 1, 2025 April Fool’s Day based on an in-game t-shirt found in GTA Online.

But is this a legitimate hint or just wishful thinking?

The theory originates from a grey t-shirt in GTA Online labeled the “One Day Will Reveal All” shirt. Around the edges of the design, players have noticed a series of numbers, including 040125, which fans believe could reference an April 1, 2025, release date for the next GTA 6 trailer.

This isn’t the first time fans have linked the shirt to GTA 6 updates. Previously, another number, 12523, was thought to point to a December 5, 2023, release for the first trailer. While it wasn’t exact, Rockstar did unveil the highly anticipated first trailer on December 4, 2023. That near-accuracy has fueled further speculation that the shirt could hold more cryptic messages about upcoming announcements.

However, despite the intriguing pattern, an April 1 release seems unlikely. Rockstar Games typically builds anticipation ahead of major reveals rather than making surprise drops without prior hints. Moreover, April Fool’s Day is notorious for pranks, making it an unusual choice for a significant announcement.

Adding to the skepticism, Rockstar has maintained complete silence since releasing the first trailer, offering no official confirmation regarding the timing of a second one. Given that GTA 6 is expected to launch in late 2025, a second trailer is likely in the works, but whether it arrives on April 1 remains highly debatable.

If Rockstar follows a marketing strategy similar to that of Red Dead Redemption 2, the second trailer could drop sometime in mid-to-late 2024. However, the extended period without updates since December 2023 raises questions about the possibility of a longer wait or even a potential delay.

For now, fans can only wait for an official announcement. While an April Fool’s Day trailer release would undoubtedly be an amusing twist, Rockstar is unlikely to use such a prank-heavy date for one of its biggest reveals. Until then, speculation will continue to run wild in the gaming community.
