This Is Not a Drill: A New Grand Theft Auto 6 Trailer Is Out

Get ready to return to Vice City in May 2026, when Grand Theft Auto VI is slated to release.

Rockstar Games surprised everyone on Tuesday by dropping a new trailer for the highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto 6, and the company is expected to launch the game on May 26, 2026.

Rockstar also shed some more light on the upcoming game’s story.

«Jason and Lucia have always known the deck is stacked against them,» the company wrote online. «But when an easy score goes wrong, they find themselves on the darkest side of the sunniest place in America, in the middle of a criminal conspiracy stretching across the state of Leonida — forced to rely on each other more than ever if they want to make it out alive.»

From the trailer, we see Jason driving around Vice City before picking up Lucia after she’s released from jail. Then things take a turn as we see the two lovebirds holding people hostage, people loading cargo onto a plane at night and a meeting with what I’m guessing are some crooked cops.

Honestly, there’s so much more happening in this trailer. There are explosions, a fight on an airplane and an airboat chase through the swamp. And it’s all set to the song Hot Together by the magnificent Pointer Sisters, making the trailer feel that much more fun.

The trailer lands a few days after Rockstar announced it was pushing the game’s launch date back to 2026 after the company aimed for a 2025 release.

While I’m a little annoyed the game’s release got pushed back, the latest trailer does looks excellent, and I’m more than happy to give Rockstar a little more time to finish the game. I want a great gaming experience, and I’d rather wait a little longer than play something that isn’t as good as it could be. And if there’s one thing Rockstar knows how to do, it’s make solid games.

Samsung’s Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 Might Come in 5G and 4G Cellular Models

If the rumor proves true, the 5G Galaxy Watch Ultra would rival the 5G-enabled $799 Apple Watch Ultra 3 that debuted last fall.

Samsung’s next high-end Galaxy Watch could support faster 5G speeds, but if this leak is true, it will depend on where you live. The rumored Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 might come in 5G and 4G cellular models, with availability for each smartwatch depending on the country.

According to the Dutch website Galaxy Club (and spotted by SamMobile), Samsung’s servers may have revealed a series of model numbers that point to 5G, 4G and Wi-Fi-enabled editions of the next Galaxy Watch Ultra, which would succeed the original model that debuted in 2024.

A representative for Samsung did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The Galaxy Club website speculates that the 5G edition would be sold in the US and Korean markets, while the 4G edition would sell in the rest of the world. In the US, a 5G version of the Galaxy Watch Ultra would rival the 5G-enabled $799 Apple Watch Ultra 3, which debuted last fall. The 4G edition would have broader compatibility worldwide, since the earlier network is far more established.

It will likely be a few months until we hear anything official about the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2. Samsung typically unveils its new watches in the summer alongside its Galaxy Z Fold and Z Flip foldable phones. Last year, Samsung unveiled the Galaxy Watch 8 and the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic, but otherwise left the prior 2024 Ultra in the lineup for those looking for a larger 47mm smartwatch.
