The excitement surrounding the anticipated second trailer for GTA 6 continues to build, fueled by a fascinating new theory that has taken the gaming community by storm. Many fans are connecting the dots to the number 27, suggesting that it may hold the key to upcoming announcements.
Gamers have been eagerly awaiting Rockstar’s reveal of the second trailer for more than a year, only to face repeated disappointments. However, recent clues have surfaced that seem to point towards a significant relationship with the number 27.
In December, developers associated with GTA 6 began sharing their Christmas gifts from Rockstar on various social media platforms. Among these gifts was a cozy sweater featuring the Rockstar logo in the colors of the game’s sixth installment, accompanied by an umbrella and a pouch. Nevertheless, one developer’s post included a slip of paper that has since ignited the imaginations of players.
This slip elaborates on the Loews Portofino Bay Hotel located in Orlando, Florida, featuring the number 1227. Many fans interpreted this as a potential reference to December 27. Notably, GTA 6 is set in the fictional state of Leonida, which bears a resemblance to Florida.
The coincidences don’t stop there; players have uncovered a treasure trove of references tied to the number 27 surrounding the Loews Portofino Bay Hotel.
Unraveling the 27 Theory in GTA 6
A growing number of fans have documented these findings, which consistently lead back to the number 27. For instance, the slip of paper includes a phone number for an auto shop in Tallahassee titled ’27’, and the hotel is commonly referred to as the ‘Grand Hotel,’ linking both “auto” and “grand.”
Further exploration revealed that just a short distance from the hotel, players found a Jason’s Deli and a Villa Lucia — both names of protagonists in GTA 6. Additionally, a nearby Waffle House may indirectly reference gameplay leaks that surfaced 27 months ago.

This collection of intriguing coincidences has led fans down a rabbit hole, seeking further connections to the number 27, and many have surfaced. For example, the GTA franchise has officially been around for 27 years, and December 27 represents the Roman numeral VI.

The first trailer for GTA 6 also includes various nods to the number 27, such as police bodycam footage where numbers accumulate to 27 and a car featuring 27 in its window appearing exactly 27 seconds into the trailer.
Upon examining Rockstar’s social media presence, fans discovered that a post about the Willard Faction also contained references that pointed toward 27. Curiously, the studio had blacked out a license plate in a related post on Instagram.
With a total of 27 posts currently displayed on Rockstar’s Instagram account, the consistent appearance of this number has further fueled speculation. Nonetheless, not everyone is convinced.
Skepticism from Insiders on the 27 Theory
Tez2, an insider known for accurate leaks surrounding Rockstar, strongly opposed the theory, labeling it as “pure delusion.” He suggested that if the trailer were imminent, Rockstar would have made formal announcements to boost excitement and maximally exploit their marketing.
Yes. It’s pure delusion.Rockstar would have announced said trailer by now, because that generates more hype and have them break records like last time.

Tez2 further explained, “Rockstar is currently on holiday, and their marketing team does not engage in teaser campaigns through employees. This is common knowledge for anyone familiar with how AAA companies operate,” he emphasized in another post.
Ultimately, the debate remains: is there a deeper significance to the 27 theory, or is it merely another instance of the community’s overzealous speculation regarding **GTA 6**? Former employees of Rockstar have observed the energy surrounding these theories, noting how it organically generates hype for the game.
As December 27 approaches, fans remain on edge, curious to see if Rockstar will provide any substantial updates or if these connections are, in fact, just a case of the community getting carried away.
