According to the speculation of Tom, the big guy who broke the news on the Internet, the next trailer of "GTA6" may have to wait another year before it is released. This speculation is based on the release model of past R-Star games. For example, there was a 17-month gap between the first and second trailers for GTA5 and 11 months between the first and second trailers for Red Dead Redemption 2. So, according to this pattern, the next trailer for GTA6 will have to wait at least a year at least.
So when will GTA6 be available for pre-order?According to R-star's marketing conventions, pre-orders for the game are basically open at the same time as the second trailer. In the case of GTA5, 17 months after the first trailer, R Star unveiled a second trailer and opened pre-orders on PS3 and Xbox 360 stores. Now, GTA6 is expected to arrive on PS5 and Xbox Series X|, 2025S platform, but considering the previous history of ticket hopping, there is also a certain probability that "GTA6" will be postponed to 2026. Of course, please refer to the official announcement of R Star for all news.
As for the question of ticket bounce, it is up for debate, and no one can say for sure whether R Star will jump on GTA6 this time. On the one hand, R-star's "GTA5" and "Red Dead Redemption 2" have both bounced tickets, so it is possible that "GTA6" will also have a bounce delay. However, on the other hand, considering that it has been more than a full decade since the last installment in the series, GTA5, and that the release of GTA5 has spanned three generations of consoles, R Star may be embarrassed to skip the ticket himself, after all, players have been waiting for a full decade, which may mean that R Star is unlikely to postpone GTA6.
Such news is undoubtedly a psychological torture. Looking forward to the release of a game, but having to face possible delays. But in fact, this phenomenon is quite common. In the gaming industry, especially in the development cycle of blockbuster games, it is not uncommon to delay releases. It takes time to make a great game, especially when it comes to a highly anticipated masterpiece, and the pressure is enormous.
Bounced or not, GTA6 will undoubtedly remain a highly anticipated work. Only GTA6 can bring us a visual feast. While waiting and seeing, players may be able to satisfy their hunger by reviewing the previous games in the series. While there are some possible clues as to when GTA6 will be released, everything is still unknown. Players may be better off keeping a normal mind and waiting patiently for the game to arrive.
