Rockstar Games will release the trailer for its highly anticipated game, ‘Grand Theft Auto VI’ (GTA 6), on Tuesday, December 5 at 1400 GMT. The company made the announcement in a minimalist social media post showing a sunset sky and palm trees. Although the post did not specifically mention ‘GTA,’ media reports indicate that the sixth installment will be set in a fictionalized version of Miami.
Rockstar Games is known for keeping a tight veil of secrecy around its releases and has a history of announcing games more than a year prior to their release. The previous installment, ‘GTA V,’ has sold around 190 million copies, making it the best-selling game in the United States for the past decade.
The GTA series has been no stranger to controversy due to its mix of violence, sex, and gangster life. It has faced criticism for its depictions of women, caricatures of minorities, and use of torture.
