Summary
-
Fans have already launched another theory of “big” Grand Theft Auto 6, this time about the date of the game.
-
As it turned out, the date of May 26 is the date of real life that Bonnie & Clyde had its funeral services in 1900.
-
They do not celebrate lovers and criminals are considered a direct inspiration for their own protagonists GTA 6.
Well, it didn't take long.
Just one day after it was announced that the Grand Theft Auto 6 would miss its original autumn 2025 opening of the window and instead will be delayed by 2026, the fans invented a new theory. Keep in mind that immediately after the delay, the fans began to broadcast their frustration, and many said their hype had died.

2025 did not need GTA 6.
We pretend that these posts do not exist because we emphasize this relatively interesting theory of fans.
Rockstar games could play 4D chess while everyone is playing Checkers
As the first time the GTA 6 on Twitter shares, the new date for the next entry into the franchise, May 26, 2026, will also be the anniversary of Bonnie & Clyde's funeral – the infamous criminal couple at the beginning of the 20th century, mostly known for their bank robbery and other leaks.
Why is this important? Some believe-and there is good evidence that the story in GTA 6 will be Rockstar's own takeover of the real life of Bonnie & Clyde. The first and only trailer indicated so much and helped add to this existing theory.
According to The Texas History Notebook, a blog on historical affairs in Texas, Clyde's funeral services took place on May 25, 1934 at sunset, while Bonnie had another day, May 26, early afternoon. Cropping the newspaper from the time also confirms so much, and the paper notes that 50,000 people came to the bodies of duo before they had private funeral services.
In other words, in fact it happened and it is not a theory of GTA fans and theory of the Moon. Next year, May 26, will fall on Tuesday, on the day the triple-a games were historically released before Friday became more popular. Whether it is a friendly coincidence or intentionally chosen Rockstar, it remains to be seen, but we can say that Hype has returned.
