The next Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer could arrive sooner than expected, if a reported leak from Best Buy is right. According to the latest IGN Daily Fix, several gaming influencers have reportedly received an email with details about a GTA 6 pre-order date at Best Buy. The email reportedly points to pre-orders going live this Monday. That timing lines up neatly with a new trailer, and the last GTA 6 trailer debuted a little over a year ago. Neither Best Buy nor developer Rockstar Games has confirmed anything about the leak or a trailer reveal.

A Monday pre-order date

The reported leak has not been verified. IGN's Daily Fix calls it a reported Best Buy leak, and the only concrete detail is that several influencers have supposedly seen an email about a GTA 6 pre-order date. Monday is the projected date, but Best Buy has not announced the pre-order and Rockstar has not issued a statement. That matters because a pre-order announcement without an official reveal would be surprising. Rockstar has traditionally paired major marketing beats with new footage. It would make sense to pair the official announcement with a GTA 6 trailer 3, something the Daily Fix also notes.

That does not mean it will happen. Leaks can be wrong, dated, or based on placeholder information. But the timing of the report is hard to ignore. The previous trailer premiered more than a year ago, leaving a long stretch without official footage. If Rockstar is ready to open pre-orders, it needs a way to put GTA 6 back in the spotlight, and a trailer is the most direct option.

The pattern behind the leak

Pre-order leaks often surface when retailers prepare internal listings before a company is ready to talk. That does not make this particular email real, but it does explain why the report is circulating. Major game announcements usually come with retailer materials. When those materials reach enough people, leaks follow.

The timing also matters. GTA 6 trailer 3 has not been announced, and the reported pre-order date would give players something concrete to act on. Rockstar has not corrected or commented on the leak, which leaves the rumor in an uncomfortable middle ground. It is specific enough to share, but not confirmed enough to act on.

Players who want to pre-order should wait for an official word from Rockstar or a verified listing from a retailer. The leak points to Monday, but pre-order dates can change, and a trailer is not guaranteed to drop at the same time.

Assassin's Creed Hexe leaks surface

The same Daily Fix roundup covered another rumor. Prominent Ubisoft leaker j0nathan claims to have revealed the first image from Assassin's Creed Hexe, along with a few details about the game's characters. Like the GTA 6 report, this is a claimant's word rather than an official announcement. The leaker says the image is the first for Hexe, and shared a few character notes, but there is no way to verify it from the report alone.

The details in the report are thin, limited to the first image and a few character notes. Those are the kinds of details fans will pick apart until Ubisoft responds, and the publisher has not done so yet.

Batman Part 2 adds Scarlett Johansson

The Daily Fix also included movie news. Director Matt Reeves has confirmed that Scarlett Johansson has joined the cast of The Batman: Part 2. Reeves has not revealed the character she will play. That makes the casting a deliberate mystery, and it will feed speculation until the sequel reveals more. Johansson is a major addition to a franchise that has kept its sequel plans quiet.

IGN's anniversary giveaway

The Daily Fix also noted that IGN is celebrating its 30th anniversary by giving away 30 free IGN Live tickets a day. Use the code IGN30PROMO at live.ign.com.

The days ahead

The GTA 6 story is the one that matters most this week. If the reported Best Buy email is accurate, pre-orders open Monday, and the chances of a trailer drop in the same window go up. If the leak is wrong, nothing changes, and Rockstar continues to control the timeline on its own terms. The next few days should settle that.

For the other stories, the correct response is patience. GTA 6 trailer 3 remains unannounced, Assassin's Creed Hexe remains an unconfirmed leak, and the Batman sequel keeps its new character under wraps. The reported pre-order date is the one concrete thing that could force an answer soon.
