GTA 6 Trailer 3 Rumor Claims a Surprise Release Could Arrive Alongside Game Informer’s New Coverage

A new Grand Theft Auto VI rumor is claiming Rockstar Games could unexpectedly release another trailer on September 29, the same day Game Informer’s major GTA 6 cover story becomes available digitally.

The claim comes from X user Remus R, who says a third GTA 6 trailer will supposedly arrive alongside Game Informer’s new material covering Leonida’s wildlife, weather and other previously undisclosed details. However, no evidence supporting a September 29 trailer release was provided in the post, and Rockstar Games has not announced Trailer 3.

A search for independent confirmation also did not uncover a reliable source corroborating the claim. Rockstar’s official GTA 6 media page currently lists only Trailer 1, Trailer 2 and Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look among its main videos.

For now, the September 29 trailer claim should therefore be treated strictly as an unverified rumor.

What Is Actually Confirmed for GTA 6 on September 29

There is, however, a genuine GTA 6 release scheduled for September 29.

Game Informer has confirmed that the digital edition of Issue 382 will become available that day, featuring a 14-page Grand Theft Auto VI cover story written by Marcus Stewart. The feature is based on interviews with several Rockstar Games lead designers and will include 12 never-before-seen GTA 6 screenshots.

The magazine says its coverage will explore Rockstar’s creation of Leonida, including the game’s advanced weather systems, wildlife across land, air and sea, and the research conducted in Miami and Florida.

That September 29 publication date is confirmed.

A new Rockstar trailer on the same day is not.

Rockstar Has Not Announced GTA 6 Trailer 3

Rockstar’s current official GTA 6 website does not list or tease a third numbered trailer.

The company’s media library currently contains three major videos:

Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer 1

Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer 2

Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look

Rockstar released An Extended Look on August 27, but the company did not officially call that presentation “Trailer 3.”

The official GTA 6 page also currently promotes the November 19 release, pre-orders, the Ultimate Edition, the Vintage Vice City Pack, Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album and the recently announced Vice City Collection. There is no listed September 29 video announcement.

The Rumor Appears to Be Connecting Two Separate Events

The timing of the claim appears to be based on the confirmed Game Informer release.

Game Informer says its GTA 6 feature arrives digitally on September 29, making it the next major dated GTA 6 information drop currently announced.

The rumor suggests Rockstar could accompany that coverage with a surprise trailer focused on some of the same subjects, including wildlife and extreme weather.

That is possible in principle, but there is currently no verified evidence that the two are connected.

Game Informer’s own announcement mentions its 14-page story, interviews, new screenshots, weather, wildlife and Rockstar’s Florida research. It does not announce or tease a new Rockstar video.

Other GTA 6 tracking sites examining the September 29 issue have reached the same factual distinction: the magazine feature is confirmed, while a new trailer is not.

Game Informer’s New Screenshots Could Still Reveal Plenty

Even without a new trailer, September 29 is already positioned to deliver substantial new GTA 6 material.

The 12 exclusive screenshots will show additional locations and characters across Vice City and Leonida, according to Game Informer.

The feature will also contain new statements from Rockstar designers about how the studio built its fictional version of Florida.

Game Informer specifically says its article covers weather capable of representing Florida’s less sunny conditions and what it describes as a large amount of native and non-native wildlife across Leonida.

Exactly how those systems work will become clearer once the full article can be read.

Rockstar Has Surprised Players With Trailers Before

One reason specific GTA 6 trailer rumors repeatedly gain traction is Rockstar’s history of controlling its own announcement schedule.

The company has previously released major GTA 6 material with relatively little advance notice.

Trailer 2 arrived on May 6, 2025, while the much longer An Extended Look presentation followed on August 27, 2026. Rockstar’s current official media page reflects that timeline and still shows no additional numbered trailer after Trailer 2.

That means Rockstar could theoretically publish another video without a long marketing countdown.

It does not, however, provide evidence that one is specifically scheduled for September 29.

There Is Likely More GTA 6 Marketing Before Launch

Rockstar still has time for additional GTA 6 marketing before release.

Grand Theft Auto VI launches November 19, 2026, for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.

A launch trailer or another major promotional video before November would not be unusual for a release of this scale, but Rockstar has not announced the format, title or date of its next GTA 6 video.

For that reason, the current situation is straightforward:

Game Informer’s GTA 6 feature and 12 new screenshots are confirmed for September 29. A surprise GTA 6 Trailer 3 on the same day remains an unverified claim.
