If this image is, in fact, teasing some kind of future GTA 6 reveal, I still wouldn't expect an announcement anytime soon. Movies like Captain Marvel have recently done interesting things with that time period, and it would be nice to see it explored more in games. And what's the deal with the private video on its official YouTube channel? It's fun to speculate about what a Grand Theft Auto game set in the late '90s would look like. Still, it's weird that Rockstar would add this image now, about ten months out from its 22nd anniversary.
Out of the two possible options, I'm a bit more inclined to say it's just honoring the company. Both GTA and Rockstar will be celebrating anniversaries in the coming months, so the image could just be commemorating the 22nd anniversary of those things.
GTA VI 1998 SERIES
March 1998 is also when the first game in the Grand Theft Auto series released in North America. While the company has roots going further back, 1998 was the year in which Rockstar was established. On the other hand, the "1998" in this image might just be honoring the significance of that year for Rockstar and Grand Theft Auto. A private video on Rockstar's channel is also making the rounds among the franchise's fans, with some believing that this could be a GTA 6 reveal trailer. If the new game is set in 1998, that would put the game's story right around the events of the original Grand Theft Auto and Grand Theft Auto 2.
Still, the time period may have changed (or those leaks were always inaccurate) and this image could be our first legitimate clue. The widely rumored "Project Americas" leak suggests that GTA 6 is set in the past, though that leak specifies the '70s and '80s, not the '90s. This is the new Rockstar image that may be connected to GTA 6.
