Payday 3, The Lord of the Rings: Gollum, Marvel's Avengers, Redfall, Skull and Bones, Concord - all of these games have something in common: they were obvious flops, some of which fell victim to the fans' extremely high expectations.

Fans currently seem to be projecting content across genres into Grand Theft Auto 6 - so the longer the test of patience lasts, the more the mountain of expectations grows. In the end, it is unlikely that Rockstar Games will be able to fulfill all of these things - even if Grand Theft Auto 6 the hoped-for mega open-world game The release of a new trailer for GTA 6 could calm the mood and adjust expectations to a healthy level.

The first trailer for GTA 6 didn't reveal much, it was more of a series of beautiful or strange sequences. The time is ripe for new insights into the game world. Fans are waiting for real gameplay scenes, for clues about the background story, for the focus of the game, for the name of Lucia's companion - a new trailer could steer the discussions about GTA 6 back on the right track.
How desperately fans are now discussing the game can be seen on social media: The trailer is being torn apart so much that Fans even opened the windows, NPCs or parking spaces. This draws attention to GTA 6 and Rockstar Games, but takes on strange proportions. Grand Theft Auto 6 hardly seems to be taken seriously anymore as a pure – and admittedly mostly expected – open-world game.
Fans are expecting a new trailer before the end of the year. And developers and publishers would do well to fulfill this expectation.
It is also unclear, however, whether there might not be good reasons for the silence on the part of Rockstar Games: There may be problems with development, or they may not be happy with some features and do not want to risk showing them all. The release of the first trailer also did not seem to have been fully planned, as there had been a lot of pressure beforehand due to a massive leak. Ultimately, a new trailer for GTA 6 should be released sooner rather than later.
All Fans' hopes are currently resting on November 6th, the day on which Take-Two will publish a business report. December as a month for news is also currently being discussed by fans.
