GTA 6 YouTube Ad Sparks Trailer 3 Speculation, but Nothing Is Confirmed

In short

  • A new GTA 6 YouTube ad, with title “There’s more to GTAVI on YouTube,” is running on Facebook and Instagram, and the Meta Ads Library confirms YouTube as the advertiser.
  • Meta shows it has been active since October 7, 2026, with two different ad versions live.
  • YouTube is promoting its own GTA 6 content, and there’s no official confirmation of GTA 6 trailer 3 in the ad, nor from Rockstar.

A “There’s more to GTAVI on YouTube” ad has sparked rumors about the third trailer of the title. But we found the ad in the Meta Ads Library, where YouTube is the sponsor. And there’s no confirmation on trailer 3 yet.

What the Meta Ads Library shows

  • YouTube as the advertiser (sponsor)
  • Running live on Instagram and Facebook, with two separate ad versions.
  • The ad started on October 7, 2026, and was still active when we checked at 8:45 am ET on October 8.
  • Ad copy says, “All roads lead to more GTAVI on YouTube.”
  • The ad shows artwork of Jason and Lucia without the pistol in hand, with YouTube labels including “podcasts” and “live” in the background.

Does the GTA 6 YouTube Ad mean Trailer 3?

As we have spotted YouTube as the advertiser of this content, it looks like GTA 6 marketing for the content on the platform, not about any official Rockstar trailer.

That is our take on the YouTube ad. It doesn’t confirm GTA 6 Trailer 3 anywhere and doesn’t deny it either.

Rockstar hasn’t confirmed anything about GTA 6 Trailer 3 or music videos yet.

Why fans are suspecting GTA 6 Trailer 3

GTA 6 extended look from Netflix

The first two trailers of Grand Theft Auto 6 were released on YouTube, and some of the major announcements were revealed on Thursdays, so fans are expecting trailer 3 on Thursday.

Apart from the two trailers, Netflix’s extended look was out on August 27. The GTA 6 album was announced on September 17 with 34 tracks and a November 19 launch date.

All this content and the Thursday pattern make fans expect more from the game.

The GTA 6 Thursday Pattern

Rockstar’s recent GTA 6 announcements were released on Thursdays, which opens the way for predictions that trailer 3 will arrive on Thursday.

Here are some of the announcements on GTA VI made on Thursdays:

Date (all Thursdays)Announcement
June 25Pre-orders opened
August 27Netflix Extended Look
September 17Album announced
September 24Collector’s Edition pre-orders

Today is October 8, Thursday. So are October 15, 22, and 29, and November 5, 12, and 19. The Thursday pattern was observed in the past announcements, but it doesn’t guarantee that trailer 3 will arrive on the same day of the week.

What’s confirmed

Here’s what we know about GTA 6 updates with the live status:
