Several Grand Theft Auto fans are expecting some sort of GTA 6 news on December 27, 2024, based on a fan theory. However, an ex-Rockstar Games developer doesn't feel like that would be the case. Mike York, former animator at the company, stated his opinion on this latest fan theory while replying to a comment on one of his YouTube videos. He said:

"Nope I don’t think the 27th will have anything announced by rockstar. Odds are they are all taking Christmas break with family and friends enjoying some time off"

Mike York was at Rockstar from October 2012 to September 2017, and worked on titles like Grand Theft Auto 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2. Interestingly, the comments above are under a video in which Mike discussed GTA 6 fan theories, of which there have been plenty of late. That latest one speculates December 27, 2024, as a potential GTA 6 trailer 2 release date.


Why are fans expecting GTA 6 news on December 27?

The reason why Grand Theft Auto fans are expecting GTA 6 news on December 27 is an intriguing fan theory that kicked off from a current Rockstar dev's recent X post. The said post (attached above) features a partially concealed note that fans analyzed and found an alleged Florida hotel booking for December 27, 2024.

There was also a sequence of numbers in that note that drove fans over to a car dealership in the same state, named 27 Auto Sales. What's even more interesting is that a waffle house located very close to this car dealership seems to resemble a building seen in the GTA 6 leaks.

Additionally, Rockstar Games has exactly 27 posts on Instagram as of this writing, which has raised the suspicions. In fact, one of those posts was reportedly removed today (December 24, 2024), and replaced with a Red Dead Online post to maintain the count at 27.

As a result, several fans believe that some sort of GTA 6 news, possibly screenshots or a new trailer, might arrive or be announced on December 27. This GTA 6 trailer 2 fan theory may seem compelling, but readers are advised to take it with a grain of salt.
