Fans speculate Rockstar Games will release GTA 6 screenshots on Christmas Eve 2024

While Rockstar Games has yet to make a Grand Theft Auto 6 announcement, some fans were examining the release patterns for Grand Theft Auto 5. The community discovered that the studio surprisingly released five screenshots from the 2013 title on Christmas Eve 2012 with the caption “Happy Holidays - Enjoy.”

As a result, fans are now expecting the same to happen this year and hoping Rockstar will release GTA 6 screenshots. However, there are two key factors that you should also note. First, by the time Grand Theft Auto 5 screenshots were released, the studio had already revealed the second trailer for the game. The events transpired on the following dates:

1. Grand Theft Auto 5 trailer 1 - November 2, 2011
2. Grand Theft Auto 5 trailer 2 - November 14, 2012
3. Grand Theft Auto 5 screenshots - December 24, 2012

Whereas in the case of GTA 6, Rockstar Games has yet to release the second trailer. Therefore, expecting the GTA 6 screenshots at this stage is a pipe dream.

Secondly, the studio has already shared the “Happy Holidays” greetings on December 23, 2024. The tweet included nothing related to Grand Theft Auto 6. Therefore, it is highly likely that we will have to wait till next year to get more information about the game.

Nonetheless, the playerbase is hyped with the “Number 27 Theory” and is expecting the Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer 2 on December 27, 2024.

This theory states that there are many things related to Rockstar Games and GTA 6 that refer to the number 27. Following are some of the honorable mentions from the list:

• Rockstar currently has 27 posts on its official Instagram account.
• The first trailer showed a car with the number 27 written on it at 0:27 seconds.
• The 27 Auto Sales store in Florida has the GTA 6 official artwork posted on Google Maps.

It is currently unknown whether these are mere coincidences or were deliberately put there to tease fans. Only time will tell when Rockstar Games will release the GTA 6 screenshots or the next trailer.
