Let’s be honest, the anticipation for GTA 6 and the relentless hunt for a second trailer have been driving die-hard fans a little bit over the edge. They’re so eager that even the smallest hints, like some numbers printed on a shipping container, set off a frenzy of speculation.
In all fairness, this kind of sleuthing isn’t new. We’ve seen similar theories sprout from things like celestial events, playlists, or even just the number 27. So, what’s sparked the latest round of detective work among our GTA enthusiasts, when there was clearly more juice to be squeezed from the recent unveiling of the Nintendo Switch 2? Well, Rockstar Games dropped a simple Twitter post with an image promoting GTA Online goodies.
The tweet invited players to “Claim a free Vapid Dominator GT muscle car and more with GTA+.” It promised bonuses on Priority FIB Files, Terrorbyte Client Missions, and a slew of other perks, all wrapped in an enticing picture of the Dominator cruising past some shipping containers—a friendly reminder of what’s on offer if you’re tempted to splash out on their premium service.
Here’s where things get intriguing. A sharp-eyed fan on the GTA 6 subreddit noticed some numbers on a red shipping container in the image. And naturally, the sleuthing began. By tallying up these digits, minus a number two isolated in a box (apparently a theorist-free zone), they arrived at the number 30. Voila, they surmised that January 30, 2025, was the magical date for trailer two’s launch.
To add a little more weight to this theory, they pointed out that January 30 is a Thursday—the same weekday Rockstar chose to announce the final release dates for GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2. Oh, not to mention, Rockstar has an earnings call on February 6, fueling the speculation fire as fans wonder if major announcements are brewing.
Despite the enthusiasm, many folks on the GTA 6 subreddit, who would usually entertain such theories, are skeptical of this one. But wouldn’t it be something if this prediction hit the mark? At least we’d all get a kick out of it.
