《GTA6》還有不到四個月就發售了，社交媒體上很多玩家對R星的「沉默」感到不滿。很多玩家發帖，批評R星的營銷缺乏刺激和宣傳。
「GTA6還有116天就要發售了，而上一個預告片已經是14個月前發布。」
R星忠實粉@videotech更是直白地指出：「《GTA6》的預熱宣傳遠沒有《碧血狂殺2》那麼令人興奮。2018年我們有持續的截圖發布、媒體預覽、預告片日期的預熱圖片等等。 我不是想顯得無禮，但距離遊戲發售只剩四個月了。現在是時候推出預告片3或者實機預告片了，這些持續的宣傳空白期正在扼殺熱情和勢頭。」
另外一位知名評論玩家@SynthPotato也給出了同樣的看法：「到目前為止，這100%就是糟糕的營銷，沒別的說法了。如果他們從八月開始，我們就只有三個月的興奮期來迎接發布，這根本不夠時間去享受那種積累的期待，但至少我們現在離遊戲很近了。」
不過，近日有爆料人預測，R星很快就會發布《GTA6》的第三支預告片，時間鎖定8月6日。
This pre-launch for GTAVI is nowhere near as exciting as RDR2’s. In 2018 we had consistent screenshot drops, press previews, teaser images for new trailer dates, etc. Not to sound rude, but we’re four months leading up to the game coming out. It’s time for either Trailer 3 or the gameplay trailer, these constant droughts kills the hype and momentum
This was May 2018, five months before the game was released: - Trailer 3 - Press previews - New screenshots Earlier in 2018, Rockstar announced a short delay alongside a new batch of screenshots. The point is that the entire year was filled with news, there were no long-term droughts like GTAVI has had since 2023.
Its 100% been just poor marketing so far, like no other way to say it. We’ll only have 3 months of excitement leading up to release IF they start in August which just isnt enough time to enjoy that build up but at least we are close to the game now
