In anticipation of Grand Theft Auto VI, fans are analyzing every hint they can find from developer Rockstar Games, and a new theory around the phases of the moon is the latest topic captivating the gaming community. Since Rockstarās initial trailer release last year, the community has been combing through clues, particularly in promotional materials, for signs of the gameās next reveal.
The so-called “moon theory” is based on the idea that Rockstar times their announcements to align with certain moon phases, like the waning gibbous moon featured in teaser images. This pattern continued in recent months, where new images of the moon in Rockstar content have emerged during waning gibbous phases, prompting speculations of a second trailer release during the next such phase, which starts on November 17, 2024. According to fans, Rockstarās recent updates seem almost intentional, suggesting they might reveal the next big trailer or release date soon to maintain fan excitement.
While this theory might sound speculative, it resonates with the Rockstar fanbase, who remember similar āhiddenā clues in previous GTA promotions. The theory suggests that Rockstar uses strategic dates and images to subtly hype up new content releases. Nonetheless, until an official word from Rockstar, the next reveal remains a tantalizing mystery.
