UFOs are coming to GTA Online this Halloween with a hint for Grand Theft Auto 6

According to Tez2’s post on GTAForums, Grand Theft Auto Online will see the introduction of UFOs just in time for Halloween. He stated the following:

“16 days before Halloween, Rockstar will start featuring UFOs within GTA Online.”

Fans can expect to see UFOs this October if the post is believed to be true. Although the concept isn't new to Grand Theft Auto games, seeing UFOs in the skies of Los Santos will be an intriguing sight.

The source further added:

“On October 23rd, the stealth UFO will appear instead of the regular UFO model.”

He suggests that something special will happen on October 23, as the arrival of a special stealth UFO may provide the first hint about the upcoming major title.

Later in the thread, Tez2 also added:

“There’s no in-game hint towards GTA 6 within [GTA Online] files. Rockstar is cautious enough not to do that. But the hint may arrive within the tweet Rockstar will prepare to talk about the UFOs happening on GTA Online. We may receive a tweet like this one from Rockstar, except the newspaper may have a small extra section below suggesting tropical storms in two days or something like that. Thus, hinting at GTA 6‘s announcement.”

He could be referring to the following tweet:

The source also pointed out the picture seen in the Grand Theft Auto trilogy last year, which fans have been unable to identify. If these claims are true, then that picture is already the first hint at an upcoming game. Here’s a full tweet by another insider, Kristy Cloud, sharing the screenshots:

This is huge news for fans who have been anxiously waiting to hear more about Grand Theft Auto 6. The developers have already confirmed that the next title will set “entertainment benchmarks” for the gaming industry.

Based on current information, what can fans expect from the upcoming Grand Theft Auto 6?

According to a report by Bloomberg, Grand Theft Auto 6 will feature two protagonists, as opposed to the three seen in its predecessor. The game will also reportedly feature the series’ first Latina female protagonist in a narrative inspired by infamous robbing duo Bonnie and Clyde.

Coupled with that, it is believed to implement the series’ first ever-changing map, based on the fan-favorite Vice City. Due to this, the developers might be expanding the map after the release, adding more missions and new cities for players to enjoy. Aside from these structural changes, the game will also boast detailed interiors throughout its world.

Fans can expect an innocuous touch to the gameplay, as evident by the recent removal of transphobic jokes from the Expanded and Enhanced edition for current-gen consoles.

As per the report, the game could arrive between April 2023 and March 2024. With that being said, fans are expected to take all of this with a pinch of salt, and wait for an official announcement from Rockstar Games.
