Rockstar Games has already confirmed the existence of GTA 6 and said official news on the next Grand Theft Auto game is coming “soon”. And while we don’t know how soon that will be, fans have been left wondering if the GTA 6 reveal trailer could end up dropping this week around the time of the Vice City anniversary.On Saturday, October 29 it will be 20 years to the day that GTA Vice City first launched on the PS2.And in the run-up to this landmark occasion the official Sony TikTok account sparked speculation that a GTA 6 reveal could be happening around then.It all began with the Sony TikTok sharing a video of GTA San Andreas playing on a huge, large-screen TV. Alongside it Sony captioned it: “pov: you load up one of the most iconic intro songs on your PS2.”In response to it there were hundreds of comments but one particular exchange caught the eye of gamers looking forward to GTA 6. It’s thought the new GTA will be set in Vice City (Image: ROCKSTAR GAMES)One user wrote: “GTA Vice City intro please.”And replying to that the Sony TikTok mentioned the game’s 20th anniversary is coming up alongside the eyes emoji.The use of this emoji led to fans thinking something big could be happening around the time of the GTA Vice City birthday, with the obvious candidate being the reveal of GTA 6 – as that game is expected to be set in Vice City.Replying to the comment one TikTok user wrote: “sony they taking your comment wrong, THEY’RE SAYING THAT GTA 6 TRAILER ABOUT TO HOP”.While another added: “gta teaser or trailer?” Sony could have teased the GTA 6 reveal on TikTok (Image: TIKTOK)This could, of course, simply be an innocuous comment with nothing to see here.But there is reason to think we could be getting near to the end of the long wait for Grand Theft Auto 6 news.One of the biggest reasons to think a GTA 6 reveal could be around the corner is Rockstar’s parent company Take Two has an investors call pencilled in for November.And, historically, big name new games from Rockstar like Red Dead Redemption 2 have been revealed in the run-up to one of these earnings calls.The long-awaited reveal of GTA 6 would give investors plenty of reasons to smile, especially after the recent – and confirmed – leak of early development assets for the next Grand Theft Auto game.
