GTA 6 LIVE: Take-Two earnings call 'crucial' for Autumn 2025 release

'Iconic cars are back'

A Redditor has spotted two "iconic" cars that seem to be back in GTA 6.

godsxm spotted an Admiral and Oceanic in the trailer and posted screenshots of this in the GTA 6 Subreddit, with fans also hyped for the cars.

Pleasant_System8339 said: "The little white car was surprisingly fast in Vice City. Loved zipping around in it lol."

ClydeCapybara said: "I hope we have different generations of cars in the game. Like an 80s Admiral and a modern one."

Some have said the Admiral could actually be a Primo though.

AnimeGokuSolos said: "Y'all got some good eyes! 👀"

'This Thursday is D-Day'

A Redditor has posted in the GTA 6 Subreddit explaining why they think release date "D-Day" is just around the corner.

Arvosss posted a screenshot of a note theorising why January 30 could be a key date for knowing if GTA 6 will release in Autumn 2025 or be delayed and that they are "99 per cent sure" there will be an announcement on this front before February 6 if that date comes and goes.

Arvosss said: "This Thursday, we will get the official release date of GTA 6 if the game is not delayed. If we don't get the release date, we can be 99 per cent sure the game is delayed."

The user then cited a number of reasons, including investors wanting to know exactly what's happening before an earnings call (Take-Two's next one is on February 6) and ahead of the third quarter earnings calls in 2013 and 2018, specific release dates for GTA 6 and Red Dead Redemption 2 were announced.

And the theory is gaining traction.

Upset_Fondant4470 said: "This has always been the best theory, even before the 27 bs."

LuxrOfficial said: "Fair analysis. I was generally thinking the same. If they are still on track, they will make an announcement, release a new trailer, or screenshots to get the information out before the earnings call. Many of us already planned to listen to the call and Rockstar knows this. If not, then Rockstar got us again and we wait longer lmao."

aastinaa said: "Sounds plausible. We shall see."

'Typo' spotted in trailer sign

A "typo" has been spotted in the GTA 6 trailer.

When Jason and Lucia are walking through the store they're robbing with balaclavas on, there are a number of signs promoting products.

However there's one for a fizzy drink where its slogan appears to say "spread tne fizz".

ADITYAKING007 spotted this and posted it in the GTA 6 Subreddit and, as always, a number of Redditors have been having fun with it.

toastronomny said: "N = November release confirmed."

AlpacAKEK said: "This sign was created by a crocodile obviously."

Astronomer-Timely said: "Probably just an artefact from anti aliasing and / or upscaling."

Massive gameplay change spotted for iconic series feature

A fan has spotted what they believe is a "new wanted system" in the GTA 6 trailer.

Posting a screenshot of Jason driving a getaway car with a police car speeding by them, in the GTA 6 Subreddit, clevererest_username said: "The cops must not have a description of the suspect so they just drive by Jason and Lucia here who are fleeing the scene of the crime the cops are headed to."

Others have been sharing their thoughts.

Automatic_Duty_386 said: "It's a cutscene. But it could work that way fosho."

Twoocents said: "It's gonna be like none we seen before."

Yakiisauce said: "This would work amazing as a cutscene during the start showing you how its plays out."

Fans split on next GTA 6 update

Fans seem to be split on if there will be any update aside from the release being on track or delayed ahead of Take-Two's next earnings call.

Replying to a Tweet from @GTAVInewz asking if there will be any news, @markzherdin said: "Given past experience, I think it's 50/50."

@waeel33 said: "No."

@Wolf101Gaming said: "I wish but we all know it'll be online DLC."

@ArlindBlloshmi said: "I believe for an announcement about next trailer, screens or new information about the game's release date."

@AlDANHUTCHlNSON said: "Nothing will happen."

Take-Two earnings call 'crucial' for Autumn 2025 release

Take-Two's upcoming earnings call is "crucial" for the release of GTA 6, according to a prominent X / Twitter account.

@GTAVI_Countdown regularly posts about GTA 6 and Rockstar Games.

Take-Two's next earnings call is on February 6 at 9.30pm GMT / 4.30pm ET / 1.30pm ET when Rockstar's parent company will at the very least confirm if the game is still on track to release in Autumn 2025 or has been delayed.

There's usually a lot of chatter from the community about a potential update on the game just before these earnings calls as Take-Two has a history of making announcements just before them to drive interest and investment in the company.

@GTAVI_Countdown said: "Take-Two's next earnings call is crucial to find out whether GTA 6 will launch this year or get delayed to 2026.

"If Rockstar confirms an actual release date rather than just 'Fall 2025', the game is unlikely to be delayed, as they typically announce a release date only when they're 100 per cent certain about it, eight-to-nine months before launch."

Lucia siblings and surname 'spotted' in trailer

A Redditor claims to have spotted pictures of Lucia's siblings from her very first appearance in prison uniform in the trailer along with her surname on a note on the warden's notebook.

RudraRousseau shared a number of screenshots in the GTA 6 Subreddit which appear to show those pictures and that her surname is Mendes according to the note.

Others couldn't believe what they saw.

AtariYokohama42 said: "How did you even read that."

IDKForA said: "That's insane. How did you spot that?"

hellboylevi said: "The bed is a bunk bed. One of these photos could easily belong to another prisoner. Lucia wouldn't leave photos of her family on someone else's bed."

Trailer 2 release date has a brand new moon theory

Here we go again... The release date for trailer 2 of GTA 6 has a brand new moon theory.

Rockstar Games announced there are three brand new Lunar New Year stunt races in an update for GTA Online "complete with exploding fireworks, cascading lanterns, and a serious test of skill" according to the studio's newswire.

X / Twitter user Gtamen, a YouTuber and Twitch streamer, noticed the moon is different in one race compared to the other two and posted on social media: "Moon theorists are going to have a field day with this one.

"The new Lunar New Year stunt races have the (dev) option to change the moon. And it just so happens one of them is different."

The different moon is a crescent one compared to full moons seen in the other two races.

Gtamen followed that up with a reply to his Tweet which said: "I find it hilarious Rockstar called the race with the different moon phase 'Spectacle'."

For those that don't know what the moon theory is, brace yourselves.

It's thought by some that Rockstar teases when a huge GTA 6 announcement is coming by including an image of what the moon will look like on the day of that key announcement in an update for something like GTA Online.

In September 2023, Rockstar posted an update for GTA Online which included a Waning Gibbous moon.

On December 1 2023, when there was a Waning Gibbous moon, Rockstar revealed the date and time the GTA 6 trailer would drop, with the trailer the only thing we've seen from the studio at all so far.

Because of this, there are a number of people that believe in the 'moon theory' and that Rockstar uses it as a way to tease big announcements.

This was speculated on a number of occasions towards the end of 2024 when a Waning Gibbous moon was featured in GTA Online updates but it turned out to be a false dawn each time.

Fans 'baffled' at Rockstar's radio silence

More fans continue to question Rockstar Games being silent on GTA 6 with many growing concerned if the Autumn 2025 release will still be met.

Take-Two, Rockstar's parent company, last reassured the release was on track in November.

The next update on the game will be on or before February 6, when there will be at the very least news around the time of an earnings call if the game remains on track or not.

But, as a GTA 6 Subreddit post points out, it's now been 416 days since the only game trailer released on December 5 2023 and fans are not only worried the game's release might be slipping, but interest for some is dwindling too.

Commenting on the post, SenoritaSpock said: "It still baffles me that they launched a trailer 400+ days ago and nothing to be heard of ever since."

Sudden_Ad8610 said: "The silence is actually making me less excited for the game."

Boberto1952 said: "Rockstar really said 'you'll get nothing and like it!' And they weren't wrong."

GTA 6 news speculated

A X / Twitter account that regularly posts about GTA 6 and Rockstar Games speculated if "unusual high discounts" on games from the studio on Steam could be leading to some sort of GTA 6 announcement.

When a studio has news on a game it is working on, it usually discounts previous titles around the time of any update to drive up interest in the studio by enticing gamers to buy and play their products.

And GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2 both have big discounts on Steam at the moment.

In a now deleted Tweet, @GTAVInewz said: "Could this be towards incoming GTA 6 news? 🤔"

Online mode to be sold separately at launch claims insider

A GTA 6 dataminer has claimed the potential GTA Online 2 will be sold separately to GTA 6 at launch.

Tez2, who also posts on X / Twitter as @TezFunz2, says this will be the first time Rockstar has done this for a title when it releases.

GTA 4, GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2 all have online modes that are included with the purchase of the base game.

Later on in their life cycles, Rockstar made the online modes for GTA 5 and RDR2 available for separate purchase at a cheaper price if players wanted to just get stuck into that and were not bothered about the single-player campaign.

However Tez2 claims the base game for GTA 6 at launch will not include a potential new online mode and will be sold separately.

On GTA Forums, Tez2 said: "In addition, Rockstar / Take-Two already sell GTAO and RDO separately but GTA 6 will be the first game where online is sold separately at launch, while story mode will be part of the full package that covers both. They will have to factor the online standalone price into the total cost."

This was met with a mixed reaction in the forum.

One user declared: "That is highway robbery."

Another said: "Going to guess the standard version will be $70 along with a $90-100 version that includes some extra side missions and weapons / bonuses in the story mode and some goodies for online. Basically like they did with RDR2 and the Rhodes bank robbery, a free horse and a few other bonuses."

However one commented: "I'm ready to pay $150 which is what I expect the most expensive digital edition to be."

Speculation in the forum says the base game could be priced at $70 with an online mode at $30, taking the total bundle up to $100.

An analyst recently said there is "hope" within the gaming industry GTA 6 will cost $100 at launch so they can bump up the prices of their own products.

Given the success of GTA Online, while an online mode set in GTA 6's universe is incredibly likely, none of this, including the speculated price, has been confirmed by Rockstar.

'Feels like the game hasn't been announced'

Frustration is building among GTA 6 fans in the Subreddit at the lack of any official updates on the game.

yeahmynathan27 posted: "The game is supposed to release in 10 months but Rockstar is awfully silent. No screenshots, no trailers, no press talks, no references. Nothing. Absolutely zero marketing. It feels like the game hasn't been even announced yet. Are we still sure that it's releasing this year?"

And others have been commenting with their thoughts.

bran_the_man93 said: "Have you ever heard the phrase no news is good news'? There's been literally endless free marketing via posts just like this, why would they bother? They know this thing needs four-to-six months of hard marketing and it'll sell like a billion copies."

Moistycake said: "I heard when Rockstar is about to delay a game, they show pictures of the game to make up for it around a year after the first trailer. Since that hasn't happened yet, I think we are ok so far."

Emergency-Chef3704 said: "I'm calm until May."

Roger Clark Tweet reaction: 'Tell em Arthur'

Redditors have been reacting in the GTA 6 Subreddit to Roger Clark's Tweet about the GTA 6 community trying to figure out when trailer 2 is releasing.

Clark portrayed Arthur Morgan in Red Dead Redemption 2.

michael99420 said: "Read it in his voice. Chef's kiss."

Ok_Clock8249 said: "You're a good man Roger Clark."

beehappy32 said: "There is a hidden message here. If you cut out some words you get: GTA 6 trailer 2 dropping clue beyond now. This must mean on his next post will contain the date of trailer 2."

Connor30302 said: "Roger Clark in GTA 6 would go hard as f*** as a cameo. Makes sense too considering Steven Ogg voiced a character in RDR2."

Hzdya said: "He knows when it's dropping out."

Arthur Morgan actor calls out GTA 6 community

Roger Clark, who portrays Arthur Morgan in Red Dead Redemption 2, has called out the GTA 6 community for continually trying to work out when the trailer 2 release date is.

Clark posted on X / Twitter: "Please stop guessing when GTA 6 trailer 2 is dropping. Please. You haven't the first f***ing clue and it's beyond obvious now."

Strong.

And, as you can imagine, a number of his followers started to ironically create wild theories based on his Tweet.

'Rockstar has no excuse not to add snow'

It's remarkably been snowing in Florida, and with GTA 6 set in the fictional state of Leonida (based on Florida), an X / Twitter account that regularly posts about GTA 6 and Rockstar Games said the studio has "no excuse" to not include it now.

@GTAVI_Countdown posted a number of images of Florida in the snow and said: "It's now snowing in Florida, so Rockstar has no excuse not to add snow to GTA 6, which is set in fictional Florida (Leonida)."

Snow has previously been included in GTA Online in Los Santos over the festive period.

Trailer 2 release date has brand new theory - and it's very soon

A release date for the long-awaited trailer 2 of GTA 6 has yet another fan theory.

douknowwhyareuhere posted a screenshot of a theory in the GTA 6 Subreddit that referenced Take-Two's earnings call on February 6, which is on a Thursday, and said: "If we look back at the last tow major Rockstar Games releases, we can see an interesting pattern: both [GTA 5 and RDR2] were announced on a Thursday.

"Now take this into consideration - look at Rockstar Games' recent post on X / Twitter. If you add the numbers they shared, 8+2+2+6+9+3+2=30, with the [final] number two standing out, perhaps hinting at a possible second trailer.

"And guess what? January 30 falls on a Thursday. Here we go again."

Indeed.
