Despite 'Grand Theft Auto VI' having a release date of May 26, 2026, the hype for Rockstar Games' most awaited title of all time never dies down.
One eagle-eyed fan went above and beyond, noticing a detail in the second trailer for the game, released on May 6 (a Tuesday) this year.
The fan pointed out that Jason, one of the rumoured protagonists of GTA 6, was wearing a watch showing "11:08" as the time.
Pointing out that "11:08" might be a secret reference to 11/08/2025—November 8, in the American style of writing dates—the fan speculated that the third trailer for Rockstar's latest could be released on this date.
In an X post that has since garnered almost half a million views, the fan notes that the first trailer for the game was announced on November 8, 2023.
"That's a Saturday no way the Release on a Saturday it will either happens close before or after the Call "IF" Something happens in November," a Redditor wrote, disagreeing with the fan on X, referring to Rockstar Games' habit of releasing important information on Tuesdays.
Yet, executives at Rockstar Games' parent company Take-Two Interactive are also scheduled to take part in an earnings conference call on November 6—which might also point to a possible window for the trailer release.
As for the trailer itself, one Redditor has speculated that "R* might surprise us with a gameplay trailer instead of [a cinematic] trailer 3".
"Has it been confirmed there’s another trailer soon?" another Redditor wrote, casting doubt on whether there even would be a third trailer to release.
GTA VI is the sixth instalment of the hugely successful 'Grand Theft Auto' franchise, coming after GTA 5, which was released more than a decade ago, but still remains a fine example of Rockstar Games at their best.
