"Are you going to say the S in Rockstar Games means 'soon'?" – Fans dismiss fake GTA 6 trailer 2 rumor

Send Push
A false rumor regarding Grand Theft Auto 6 (GTA 6) Trailer 2 has emerged on Twitter, sending fans into a frenzy. A GTA page posted an edited image of Rockstar Games' Instagram profile, misleadingly indicating that the account had 13 posts. From this, they theorized that the second trailer would be released on April 13. But upon confirmation, Rockstar's profile actually had 16 posts, validating the rumor as unfounded. Fans were quick to call out the misinformation, quashing the rumors.


Fake GTA 6 trailer 2 leak sparks baseless speculation





The rumor started when a GTA-centric Twitter account shared a photo of Rockstar Games' Instagram page, pointing out the alleged 13 posts as a clue for an April 13 trailer release. But the photo was soon proved wrong as Rockstar indeed had 16 posts back then. Even with the evident proof against the rumor, the false post caught on, causing unnecessary hype among fans.


Rockstar Games has not made any indication of an upcoming trailer release, and based on their past, they tend to make trailer announcements weeks prior, not through mysterious Instagram hints. The initial GTA 6 trailer was pre-announced, and Rockstar gave an official date, so it is less likely that they would suddenly release Trailer 2 without warning.


Fans strongly criticize the fake GTA 6 trailer 2 rumor


The baseless claim was swiftly dismissed by GTA fans, who criticized it as an attempt to mislead the community. A fan had a sarcastic reply, saying, “13 posts so the 13th is drop day? Are you going to say the S in Rockstsr games mean ‘soon’ ?” in sarcasm of interpreting conclusions from the number of posts.




One irate user replied, "Now your just reaching but honestly doing it for the engagement" implying that the rumor had been intentionally made up to elicit attention.




Others noted Rockstar's consistent trailer release schedule, with one fan commenting, "They will announce trailer 2 3/4 weeks before they drop it. Happened with trailer 1 so expect the same with number 2. They won’t just drop it randomly they don’t do that"





Others looked at the issue in a more lighthearted way, with one fan sarcastically saying, "Is the next post gonna make it April 14th?" pointing out how quickly these rumors come and go without any true substance.


This new GTA 6 rumor is simply another instance of false speculation among gamers. Rockstar has not given any suggestion that Trailer 2 will be out on April 13, and past history indicates they will provide fans with ample warning before releasing it. Anticipation may be high, but fans need to stick to official sources instead of viral posts circulating false rumors.
