GTA 6 Trailer 2 Won’t Appear At The Game Awards And It Proves It | Game | Entertainment

UPDATE: GTA 6 predictably won Most Anticipated Game at this year’s Game Awards, even though no one from Rockstar Games was present to accept the award.

While this could be seen as further proof that Grand Theft Auto 6 Trailer 2 will not appear during the event, there are some fans who are still hoping for a surprise drop.

With The Witcher 4 and Elden Ring Nightreign opening the event, plus trailers for Borderlands 4 and a new game from the creator of Ico, The Game Awards should have something pretty special lined up to wrap up the event.

Fingers crossed it’s GTA 6 Trailer 2!

ORIGINAL: The annual Game Awards take place later this week, complete with a host of new game announcements, trailers and surprises.

After a year of no new GTA 6 footage from Rockstar Games, one surprise that fans are especially clamoring for is the release of the second Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer.

Unfortunately, however, a recent announcement suggests that we may have to wait a little longer for GTA 6 Trailer 2.

Publisher 2K recently confirmed plans to showcase upcoming open-world action game Mafia The Old Country at The Game Awards.

“Mafia The Old Country has been confirmed for a full world premiere reveal on Thursday at The Game Awards,” reads a tweet from event organizers.

Mafia publisher 2K and GTA 6 developer Rockstar Games are both subsidiaries of Take-Two Interactive, making it unlikely that either game will appear at the event.

An appearance of GTA 6 would completely overshadow the reveal of Mafia The Old Country, which would be counterproductive for Take Two.

I could be wrong (and I really hope I am), but if GTA 6 Trailer 2 drops this year, expect it to happen independent of The Game Awards.

But with GTA 6 nominated for the most anticipated game at the event, there’s a good chance we could at least get an official update from Rockstar Games when a spokesperson accepts the award.

We know for sure when The Game Awards will take place on December 12th (or December 13th for fans in the UK).

Something definitely seems to be brewing after a user on Reddit noticed that Rockstar recently updated the GTA 6 YouTube playlist.

The playlist was previously updated following the release of Trailer 1, leading to speculation that another trailer could drop in the coming days.

What we do know for sure is that Grand Theft Auto 6 takes place in the state of Leonida, which is based on Florida.

Rockstar explains: “Grand Theft Auto VI heads to the state of Leonida, home to the neon-drenched streets of Vice City and beyond, in the biggest, most immersive evolution of the Grand Theft Auto series to date.”

The previously released trailer gives fans a look at some of the map locations as seen from the sky above. This includes locations based on the Florida Keys, as well as the beach and more.

The trailer also hints at a potential game-changing new feature for Grand Theft Auto 6 that will up the scale to never-before-seen levels.
