The first Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer will be revealed tomorrow, but some fans clearly can’t wait. Even with a day to go until it drops, more than 40,000 people are waiting around on the Rockstar YouTube channel, waiting for the trailer’s premiere.
At the time of writing, the exact number of fans waiting for the premiere is 46,307, and it’s only rising. Maybe some of them are hoping that someone at Rockstar presses the wrong button and it goes live early, or perhaps they’re just that excited for the reveal and don’t want to risk missing it. Either way, it’s safe to say that the reveal will amass a whole lot of views, as tens of thousands are already happy to just stare at the same graphic for a day.
The announcement post for the trailer has 1.9 million likes too, so it’s fair to say that there’s a bit of excitement going into this reveal.
While the trailer itself isn’t live yet, Rockstar has set it up on YouTube to premiere on December 5, at 9am ET. Uploading it as a premiere is a little like running a livestream, allowing would-be viewers to wait in the lobby until the video goes live, watching it in real-time with everyone else who waited. It will also give the trailer a live chat function, forever immortalising the first impressions of everyone who tuned in.
As one of the many thousands who have joined the lobby out of curiosity, I can confirm that there is nothing to see here. We can’t even use the live chat yet, so all you’d really be doing is staring at that image announcing the trailer date, which is probably etched into all of our minds by now.
Frankly, everything is looking a lot more exciting elsewhere. As we reported over the weekend, apparent gameplay footage has leaked via TikTok. While we can’t verify if the footage is legitimate, many sources believe that it is – and that it was leaked by the son of a Rockstar employee. Other sources say that the TikTokker was a friend of the son, or perhaps a former friend now, since I doubt Rockstar will be a huge fan of the whole situation.
In any case, we’ll have to wait and see what the trailer gives us. We can expect to get a look at our new protagonists, who according to leaks, will be a couple called Jason and Lucia. However, since this is only the first trailer, we might have to wait for another to give us more details on what we’ll be getting up to in the game.

As a Floridian, I know there are just some things Rockstar has to include in a GTA game set in the so-called Sunshine State.
