The first trailer for GTA VI will be released this month

Brace yourselves, the first trailer for Grand Theft Auto VI is officially coming this month after many years of waiting.

Rockstar Games - the developers of the famed franchise - released Grand Theft Auto V in September 2013, with the tenth anniversary of the beloved game coming earlier this year.

Since then, Rockstar has released Red Dead Redemption 2 to much critical acclaim, while also releasing remasters of some of its much-loved titles.

But the GTA series is very much a different beast, with fans longing for information from Rockstar.

After much speculation, Rockstar confirmed last month that a trailer for GTA VI would be coming in December, simultaneously breaking the internet in the process.

In a statement released on X, formerly Twitter, Rockstar's president Sam Houser said: "Next month marks the 25th anniversary of Rockstar Games. Thanks to the incredible support of our players worldwide, we have had the opportunity to create games we are truly passionate about.

"Without you, none of this would be possible, and we are so grateful to all of you for sharing this journey with us.

"In 1998, Rockstar Games was founded on the idea that video games could come to be as essential to culture as any other form of entertainment, and we hope that we have created games you love in our efforts to be part of that evolution.

"We are very excited to let you know that in early December, we will release the first trailer for the next Grand Theft Auto. We look forward to many more years of sharing these experiences with all of you."

Rockstar did not specify an exact date on when we should expect the trailer to drop, but please Rockstar, don't make us wait much longer.

Thankfully, Tez2, a well-known GTA insider and someone who has credible track record when it comes to Rockstar's games, has said the trailer is dropping in early December.

It comes as Rockstar announced earlier this week that they are teaming up with Netflix to bring three of its titles to the streaming platform.

Netflix said: "Starting today, fans can pre-register to play Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition, featuring the genre-defining titles of Grand Theft Auto III, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, each updated for mobile.

"Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition adds to a growing catalog of more than 80 mobile games, with must-play titles across all genres adding further value to all Netflix memberships — including through one of the most iconic series in history, without any ads, in-app purchases, or extra fees."
