Rockstar Games has always been known for its mysterious approach to game development. The upcoming Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6) is no exception. With the only official trailer for the game being over a year old, fans are definitely clamoring to see more from the sequel. As the fans wait, their theories are running wild. Recently, Ashley Winstead, a Production Coordinator at Rockstar Games, shared some insights into how the developers react to the wild theories and speculations that circulate on platforms like Reddit and Twitter.

In a conversation with a fan on X, Winstead candidly responded to whether the developers ever check out some of the ridiculous GTA 6 theories and laugh at them. “I try my best to stay off GTA Reddit and Twitter but every once in a while, I get sent something from a friend and get a good laugh out of a post,” she said.

This response highlights how the people at Rockstar try to balance engaging with the game’s community and staying focused on their work on the next GTA title. It’s clear that the developers do find some theories amusing. However, they generally avoid diving too deep into the speculation that often surrounds highly anticipated games like GTA 6. This is especially understandable when you consider how wild some theories can get when it comes to GTA 6.

The developers clearly seem to have a positive attitude towards the theories. However, it does raise the question of what some of the theories around the game are. The GTA community is no stranger to creativity and enthusiasm, especially with their theories during the games’ production cycle. GTA 6 has been no exception, with some theories even being somewhat outlandish. Here are some of the most popular theories that have surfaced online:

  • Moon Phase Theory: Some fans suggest that Rockstar will release GTA 6’s second trailer to align with a specific moon phase. This would be similar to how they released the first trailer during the Moon Festival. While this theory has gained traction on various platforms, Rockstar has not confirmed any connection.
  • Lucia and Jason: Fans speculate that the main characters, Lucia and Jason, are immigrants from Mexico or Central America who rise through the criminal underworld in Vice City. This theory is based on hints from the first trailer and the game’s setting.
  • Tommy Vercetti’s Return: Some fans believe that Tommy Vercetti, a beloved character from GTA: Vice City, will make a return in GTA 6. This, with the return to Vice City, would be a nostalgic treat for many players. However, Rockstar has not given any official confirmation about this yet.
  • High Price Speculation: Some believe that Rockstar will price GTA 6 at a staggering $150 due to its extensive content and high production value. This theory stems from comments made by Strauss Zelnick, CEO of Take-Two Interactive, about game pricing.
  • Undercover Cop Theory: Another popular theory suggests that Jason might be an undercover cop who falls in love with Lucia and decides to leave the police force to be with her. While this would add an interesting twist to the storyline, there is not enough evidence to back this theory up.
