GTA 6 fans joke they're cancelling preorders for this silly reason after Trailer 2

Grand Theft Auto 6 won't launch for another year, but when it does, it needs to fix one Trailer 2 detail that fans have picked up on (although we hope they're joking)

GTA 6 will be one year away on Monday (not that we're counting) and while Rockstar has finally deemed us worthy of another fantastic trailer, some fans have picked a very, very small hole in it.

The game, which has reportedly been in development for years, is likely to be a pricey purchase when it does launch, but fans will want one very minor detail fixed if the chatter on social media is anything to go by.

As spotted by PC Gamer, one Reddit user has spotted that within Trailer 2, one shot shows a gun flashing a split second before the weapon is actually fired.

GTA 6 fans joke about Trailer 2 feature

It'd be fair to say that the GTA 6 trailers have been some of the most impressive we've ever seen.

From bubbles in beer bottles, to the way waves form and the incredible animation, it appears no detail has been sparedbut fans have been joking that this muzzle flash oversight is cause for concern.

"Thats it, pre order cancelled," one commenter said, while another joked "Are you saying you've seen the light?"

"Literally unplayable. I cant believe this garbage" another said, while another added "Bro, light travels faster than John Rockstar."

There's every chance this gets 'fixed' in the final product, but it shows just how meticulously fans are combing through the trailer, which you can watch in all of its glory (again) below.

At the time of the game's delay to 2026, Rockstar Games released a statement that said "We are very sorry this is later than you expected."

"The interest and excitement surrounding a new Grand Theft Auto has been truly humbling for our entire team. We want to thank you for your support and your patience as we work to finish the game."

"With every game we have released, the goal has always been to try and exceed your expectations, and Grand Theft Auto VI is no exception. We hope you understand that we need this extra time to deliver at the level of quality you expect and deserve."

Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick has said the delay gives Rockstar time to polish the game, while other reports have suggested it will alleviate the need for crunch for the development team.
