August carries many promises, from several big-name releases like Star Wars Zero Company, Beast of Reincarnation and Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls to events like Gamescom. However, for many, it could also be when Rockstar reveals more about Grand Theft Auto 6. While neither the developer nor publisher Take-Two Interactive have confirmed the same, insider NateTheHate said he expected to see more.

And in case there’s any confusion, he responded to another tweet about GTA 6 updates with, “It’s August. In due time we’ll get the update people seek.”

While some are already joking about what “due time” could mean, there’s also that part about “the update people seek.” One would think that Trailer 3 is on the way, but perhaps Rockstar will do one even better and drop a proper gameplay showcase. Maybe it’ll actually tell us more about the story, and what Leonida has to offer. That’s always the hope, of course – whether it delivers on that front is an entirely different story.

Thankfully, we won’t have to wait much longer for Grand Theft Auto 6’s launch. It’s out on November 19th for Xbox Series X/S and PS5. Pre-orders reportedly topped $260 million in sales in the first week, and even if it ends up on the low end of estimates, it’s expected to sell 37 million in its launch week if momentum continues. Unfortunately, even with no disc, the physical version will be region-locked. Head here for more details.
