"Rockstar will be on Christmas break": GTA 6 trailer 2 theory lacks optimism among some fans

Several Grand Theft Auto fans are speculating that December 27, 2024, might be a potential GTA 6 trailer 2 release date. The basis for this theory is a Rockstar Games developer's recent social media post, which fans believe contains hints pointing to the upcoming title and the number 27. However, not everyone is as optimistic about it, since many such theories have been formed before (like the infamous Moon Theory) but none have turned out correct so far.

X user @that1detectiv3 expressed their opinion on the topic, suggesting that nothing would happen on December 27, 2024, as Rockstar would be on a Christmas break then. Here's what he wrote:

"Guys nothing GTA 6 related is happening on December 27th. The theories are fun to talk about, but let’s not be hopeful here. Rockstar will be on Christmas break during that week, plus the dev who started this was probably just having some fun that got out of hand. That’s all."

Another user, @ViwuAndYouKnow, commented on the above post along the same lines, stating that while they do not believe anything will be showcased on December 27, 2024, "conspiracy" theories are funny to see develop.

@TezFunz2 (on X), a well-known Rockstar insider, commented on this GTA 6 trailer 2 release theory too. According to them, if the company actually wanted to tease something, that would have been done through its official social media account, not via a developer.

The theory is also being discussed heavily on Reddit, where again, there are some who don't seem to be too optimistic about it. Here are a few of such posts:

Needless to say, only time will tell whether this December 27 (2024) GTA 6 trailer 2 fan theory has any truth to it.

Here's a brief on the December 27 GTA 6 trailer 2 fan theory

The X post above from @Reckope, a Mission Designer at Rockstar Games, kicked off the latest GTA 6 trailer 2 release theory. The image features some merchandise from the company. However, fans focused more on the note below it, analyzing its contents to find an alleged booking at a Florida-based hotel for December 27 and a number that led to 27 Auto Sales, another Florida-based location.

These were a few of the many supposed hints that fans believe to have found from the developer's social media post. Rockstar currently having 27 posts on Instagram has added to the fan theory as well. Hence, many are speculating if the GTA 6 trailer 2 could be showcased on December 27, 2024. However, as can be inferred from the reactions above, not everyone in the fanbase is on the same page regarding the theory's potential.
