October came and went, but the much-anticipated Grand Theft Auto 6 (GTA 6) announcement did not grace eager gamers. Rockstar Games, known for dropping major releases in October, instead unveiled a GTA Online Halloween Event trailer, leaving fans in dismay. The disappointment was tangible, especially given the hype around the rumoured "Rocktober" release.
The absence of any GTA 6 teaser in the Halloween trailer left enthusiasts disheartened. Despite fervent hopes, the video solely highlighted the ongoing limited-time activities in GTA Online, lacking any clues about the next GTA installment. Twitter exploded with reactions, with one user astutely noting the void, "Note that there isn't any content for the next Grand Theft Auto game in the Halloween trailer for GTA Online."
