We’re in the middle of the last full week of December, so almost everyone has finished the year and started their summer break. This also applies to Rockstar, the creator of GTA 6. All this means that the chances of receiving a novel trailer for the highly anticipated game are slim.
However, all this does not matter to a certain group of fans who have become convinced that yes, we do If This week we’ll get a novel trailer for GTA 6.

Before we get into the details, it’s probably worth suspending your disbelief for a moment while reading this. I’m not even entirely sure that the same people behind this theory believe in it themselves, but let’s move on.
As he noticed Computer gamerit all started when one of the Rockstar developers posted a photo containing some “clues” that seem to point to the number 27. Whether it’s a troll or not, the photo was discovered by a Twitter account that leaked GTA 6who took it upon themselves to analyze it for possible clues.
The photo shows a Rockstar Games sweater in GTA 6 colors and a few other Rockstar-related souvenirs. What’s fascinating is that the sweater has cat hair in the shape of Roman numerals VI. Look closely and you’ll find a phone number on the piece of paper at the bottom. It turns out that the number belongs to a car dealership in Florida called 27 Auto Sales. The leak account took this number as a clue and ran with it.
If you’re a member of Team Believe, you’ll be content to know that the number 27 actually leads to several things. First of all, currently the Rockstar Instagram account has Exactly 27 posts. To make matters more fascinating, at 27 seconds into the only GTA 6 trailer we have, we see a car with the same number on the rear window. There is also the license plate of the Lost Santos State Trooper’s car, whose numbers add up to 27.
This is where things take a pointed turn and throw you off balance. This particular revelation is based on the lunar theory, which suggests that Rockstar is using the moon phases to let fans know when the trailers for GTA 6 will be released. The lunar cycle has 27 days, which is another element of 27 days.
The Waning Gibbous moon phase is an fascinating cycle here because that’s when we got the first trailer for GTA 6 (December 1, 2023), so it follows that the second trailer will be released on the day that Waning Gibbous Moon happens to be released. That day was December 20, which was last Friday, and we certainly didn’t get any trailers then.
So “theory” has now been pushed back to next Friday, December 27, as the next possible date. And since these things are malleable and don’t follow any solid logic, some have even suggested that the trailer will be released on January 14, when the next Waning Gibbous will be seen.
Back to the real world, we still expect GTA 6 to be released before the end of 2025. We have no idea when the next substantial news about the game will be revealed, but there’s a good reason why Rockstar is keeping tranquil.
