Rockstar released the first trailer for GTA 6 in December 2023, and fans are very excited for the second one.
The initial teaser gave a lot of insight into the game, especially since fans had no prior knowledge. While leaks in 2022 hinted at some aspects of the game, nothing could be confirmed, and the clips were from an early version.
Now that the first trailer is out and a second one might drop soon, fans are guessing what it might reveal. However, this article focuses on what fans shouldn’t expect from the GTA 6 trailer 2.
What will GTA 6 trailer 2 not reveal?
While gamers are eagerly awaiting gameplay footage of the next GTA installment, it’s unlikely that Rockstar will showcase it in the second trailer for GTA 6.
This speculation is based on how Rockstar has handled previous releases, such as Grand Theft Auto 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2.
For example, before the release of Grand Theft Auto 5, Rockstar unveiled an introductory trailer in 2011, showcasing the city of Los Santos.
Then, in 2012, they released a more cinematic trailer revealing all three protagonists. However, these trailers featured cutscenes from various in-game missions rather than actual gameplay.
Rockstar continued the same pattern with their next game, Red Dead Redemption 2. The first trailer for RDR2 was released in 2016, giving viewers a mere glimpse of what the game had to offer.
This was followed by another cinematic trailer the next year, which included snippets of cutscenes from various in-game missions.
In fact, if we look back even further to Grand Theft Auto 4, we see a similar approach being followed.
The first trailer for GTA 6 offered a sneak peek into the game’s setting, featuring Vice City and Leonida, and introduced one of the protagonists, Lucia.
It mainly focused on showcasing the game world and its vibrant characters, many of whom were inspired by real-life viral moments from Florida. However, details about the protagonists’ backgrounds and the missions were kept mysterious.
Following Rockstar’s typical pattern, the next trailer will probably be highly cinematic, focusing on in-game missions.
It may provide more information about the protagonists, Jason and Lucia, but it might not fully reveal their characters.
Rockstar is known for carefully managing the hype for their games, so they’re likely to continue with this approach in the upcoming trailer.
