GTA VI Trailer 2? On April Fools? You’re joking… right?
The rumors started bubbling up after a cryptic post from a known Rockstar insider on X (formerly Twitter), claiming “Y’all might wanna keep your eyes on April 1 👀 #GTA6.” Since then, the GTA community has been in full detective mode.
And here’s where it gets weird:
- Rockstar’s social media team has been unusually quiet since the first trailer dropped in December 2023.
- Some fans noticed backend updates to the official GTA YouTube playlist—a trick Rockstar pulled before the first trailer dropped.
- And on Reddit? One post on r/GTA6 is blowing up, suggesting Vice City’s skyline is returning in a new nighttime reveal.
Still, this is Rockstar. A company that once announced a game with literally just a logo—and broke the internet.
The GTA fandom is spiraling (again)
Let’s be honest: Rockstar fans are feral for crumbs. Every radio silence leads to trailer theories. Every updated favicon is a “leak.” And now? April 1st is shaping up to be the most unhinged day yet.
Some fans are cautiously hyped:
“If they drop Trailer 2 on April Fools, it’s GOAT marketing.”
Others are bracing for pain:
“I’m setting expectations to zero. If anything drops, I’ll scream. If not, I’ll cry.”
And then there’s this take:
“Rockstar dropping heat while clowning us on April Fools is the most GTA thing they could do.”
Honestly, they’re not wrong.
What could the new trailer show?
If this is real—and that’s a big if—here’s what fans are hoping to see:
- More Lucia and Jason gameplay
- A deeper look at Leonida at night (with club scenes, neon-soaked chaos)
- Vehicles, weapons, and criminal factions
- The long-theorized Everglades, swamp towns, and gators
Basically, people want the “Oh s**t, this is real” moment again—but amped up.
So, is Rockstar trolling or teasing?
That’s the million-dollar question. Rockstar has a history of unconventional reveals. Remember when they dropped the first trailer a day early because it got leaked?
An April 1 drop would be chaotic, unpredictable, and perfectly on-brand—especially for a franchise built on satire, anarchy, and flipping expectations.
Final thoughts
Whether it’s a prank, a teaser, or the actual Trailer 2, GTA fans are going to be online in full detective mode on April 1. And if Rockstar does drop something? The internet might not survive the hype.
Until then: hydrate, manage expectations, and pray to the neon-lit gods of Vice City.
