GTA 6 fans ‘pinpoint’ Trailer 2 release date with number theory that’s wild enough to work

TechGamingGTA 6GTA 6’s next trailer could drop next week, according to a fresh theory from Rockstar Games fans who have been playing detective yet again in the hunt for fresh informationGTA 6 could hit its 2025 date, or it could be delayedGTA 6 fans still think we’re getting a second trailer this month, and a new ‘number theory’ has fans turning detective (again) to put a date on the game’s next reveal.

The game which some have suggested could ‘save’ the video game industry (if returning president Donald Trump doesn’t change that) still doesn’t have a release date, but fans think we could hear a lot more next week.

Here’s why the GTA 6 community is circling a date on the calendar.

GTA 6 fans think Trailer 2 is coming next weekAs shared by GTA 6+ on X (formerly Twitter), the reveal of a fresh car in GTA Online has a series of numbers on the side in a column, written on a shipping container.

All of them added together make 30, and the number 2 is in a larger font, meaning some fans are expecting the trailer on January 30.

That’s not all, though. As GTA 6+ points out, Rockstar revealed both GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2’s release dates on Thursdays, and wouldn’t you know it, January 30 is a Thursday.

Given the earnings call on February 6 is likely to reveal something whether Rockstar wants to say anything or not, it’ll be interesting to see if this fan theory is proven correct.

Other theories in recent months have included plotting the phases of the moon in GTA Online, as well as a PlayStation event that didn’t materialise, analysing social media posts and a mystery YouTube playlist.
