Honey, wake up—fresh GTA 6 trailer release date theory emerges, and it’s more than just hopeful calculations on shipping containers

Let’s dive into the latest buzz surrounding GTA 6. I know, I know, you might be rolling your eyes at yet another wave of rumors about a second trailer, but bear with me. This time, fans are getting all worked up over, of all things, numbers on a shipping container.

Honestly, it’s not entirely out of the ordinary for the GTA community. We’ve seen speculation sparked by everything from moon phases to playlist clues, and let’s not forget the infamous obsession with the number 27 towards the end of last year.

So, what’s the deal that’s got all the GTA 6 enthusiasts in a tizzy instead of dissecting last week’s Switch 2 announcement like true Rockstar sleuths? It all started with—brace yourselves—an image Rockstar Games posted on Twitter to promote some GTA Online goodies.

In their tweet, Rockstar casually mentioned, “Claim a free Vapid Dominator GT muscle car and more with GTA+,” enticing players with bonuses on various in-game missions and discounts. They paired this with an enticing image of the Dominator cruising past some shipping containers, perhaps a reminder of what the sweet ride looks like.

But hold on, as the late Billy Mays would say, there’s more! A particularly sharp-eyed member of the GTA 6 subreddit noticed some intriguing numbers on a red shipping container beside the car. And then, the hypothesis train left the station. By adding up the numbers displayed—excluding a conveniently enclosed ‘2’—the total came to 30. This led to the bold theory that January 30, 2025, is the targeted release date for the much-anticipated trailer. Mark your calendars, folks.

Oh, and in a stroke of Sherlockian deduction, they pointed out that January 30 is a Thursday—the same day of the week when the release dates for GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2 were announced. Mere coincidence? Highly suspect. They further noted that Rockstar’s next earnings call is scheduled for February 6, potentially setting the stage for a grand reveal.

Interestingly, even among the dedicated theorists of the GTA 6 subreddit, this latest speculation isn’t gaining much traction. But hey, if it turns out to be spot on, it’ll surely give us all a hearty chuckle.

So, are you finding these endless GTA 6 trailer theories entertaining, if nothing else? Or perhaps you’re grateful for the distraction from speculations about the game’s price? We’d love to hear your thoughts!
