GTA 6 Trailer 3 Rumored for Early Next Week, With Possible State of Play Appearance
A fresh GTA 6 rumor is gaining attention online, and this time the timing behind the claim has fans especially interested. According to a new leak, Rockstar Games may be preparing to release the third Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer early next week, with Tuesday, May 26 being mentioned as the possible date.
While GTA 6 rumors have been constant since the game’s reveal, this latest claim stands out because it lines up with a key detail from Rockstar’s own marketing. Before the game was delayed, GTA 6 was originally scheduled to launch on May 26, 2026. That date still appears at the end of the second trailer, which has led many fans to believe Rockstar may soon release a new trailer to replace the outdated launch window with the updated November 19, 2026 release date.
The rumor comes from a GTAForums user known as Graczdari_91. Although not one of the most widely recognized names in the leak scene, the user has previously shared information that turned out to be accurate, including pushing back against false retail pre-order claims. In the latest post, the user says GTA 6 Trailer 3 is currently expected to arrive on Tuesday, May 26.
The date has quickly sparked discussion among fans because it would be a strategic moment for Rockstar. If the original release date passes while Trailer 2 still shows May 26, it could create confusion among casual viewers. A new trailer around that time would allow Rockstar to reset expectations, spotlight fresh footage, and officially reinforce the new November release date.
The leak also suggests that GTA 6 could have some presence during Sony’s upcoming State of Play presentation on June 2. According to the same forum post, Sony contacts allegedly mentioned that Rockstar has provided “a little something for marketing purposes” that may be used during the event. The leaker did caution that the information could be a joke or a misunderstanding, so fans should treat it as unconfirmed for now.
Even so, the idea is not difficult to believe. The next State of Play is expected to be a major showcase, reportedly running for more than an hour and featuring a mix of PlayStation exclusives and third-party games. Sony is also said to be giving the event a larger-than-usual presentation, including theatre screenings in select locations and in-person media attendance.
Several major titles are expected to appear, including Marvel’s Wolverine, along with possible updates on other big PlayStation projects. If Sony is planning a high-profile event, even a brief GTA 6 appearance would instantly make it one of the most talked-about gaming showcases of the year.
At the same time, it is important to remember that Rockstar rarely follows predictable marketing patterns. The company has often chosen its own timing for major announcements rather than relying on gaming showcases. That means GTA 6 Trailer 3 could arrive independently before the State of Play, appear during the event in some form, or not show up at all.
For now, the most interesting part of this rumor is the timing. With May 26 marking the game’s original release date, Rockstar has a clear reason to update its promotional material. Whether that means a full new trailer, a shorter video, or a release date reminder remains to be seen.
GTA 6 is currently scheduled to launch on November 19, 2026. The game will follow protagonists Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos in the state of Leonida, including the return of Vice City. With anticipation already at record levels, any new footage from Rockstar would likely dominate gaming discussions instantly.
Until Rockstar makes an official announcement, fans should take the leak with caution. Still, with the old release date approaching and a major PlayStation event around the corner, the next few days could be very important for GTA 6 news.
