GTA 6rumors have gotten so out of hand that fans are now using the moon to predict the game’s reveal date.
WithGTA 5over ten years old, fans are getting ever more eager for the next instalment, and the conspiracy theories about when we’ll get our first look at GTA 6 are becoming more and more out there. This latest hunch is the most bizarre and perhaps the most brilliant one we’ve seen yet.
It all stems from a recent image posted by Rockstar as part of the latestGTA Online Update. The image shows two characters clad in red Happy Moon Tees, which players can get for taking part in the Moon Festival. But far from being just a promotional image for the current festivities, players think this holds the secret to when GTA 6 will officially be unveiled.
As pointed out by Reddit user ApprehensiveTop8927, the image to the left - the famous Vinewood sign - is obstructed so that only the letters V and I are visible. Put these letters together, and they spell six in Roman Numerals, which could be a not-so-subtle hint at GTA’s sixth instalment.
That brings us to the moon in the background, which, as shown in the below tweet from @Dirty_Worka, is in the Waning Gibbous phase. As the user explains, this is the phase the moon is currently in the real life. “Rockstar really does like hiding stuff in plain sight and they’re a very clever bunch,” @Dirty_Worka says. “Part of me wouldn’t be surprised if they did something like this.”
If there’s any truth to these theories, GTA 6’s big reveal could be imminent. Still, the moon probably isn’t the most reliable source when it comes to news on the highly anticipated sequel, so it’s best to take this with a huge grain of salt until we have official word from Rockstar.
