Take-Two Interactive has officially scheduled its next investor earnings call for Thursday, November 6, and this date has already sparked speculation around GTA VI.

There are a few interesting coincidences. Pre-orders for GTA V opened on Monday, November 5, 2012, and this year Monday, November 3 lines up perfectly as a potential launch window again. Even more curious, that day also marks the birthday of Sam Houser, Rockstar’s co-founder.

Add to that Rockstar’s earlier statement that GTA VI will have a shorter marketing cycle, and the timing starts to make sense. With roughly 6 to 7 months left until release, November would be an ideal moment to open pre-orders and boost end-of-year financial results.

Nothing is confirmed yet, but all signs suggest that fresh GTA VI news could arrive very soon, possibly alongside the long-awaited pre-orders.
