Game Informer Issue 382 Goes Digital: GTA 6 Cover Story With 12 New Official Screenshots
On September 29, Game Informer issue 382's digital edition went live with GTA 6 as the cover story: a roughly 14-page feature and a batch of 12 brand-new official screenshots. It is the first proper preview from a major outlet before launch, and the biggest 'main course' beat in Rockstar's controlled marketing cadence.
Overview
Between September 25 and 29, Game Informer announced GTA 6 as the cover story of issue 382; the digital edition went live on September 29 with a batch of 12 brand-new official screenshots. It is widely read as the heaviest media preview before launch — Rockstar chose a trusted games magazine for a "controlled" disclosure rather than dropping another trailer.
Why it matters for a content site: this is evergreen source material for P0 keywords (GTA 6 gameplay / Extended Look breakdown / characters). The cover feature covers protagonists Lucia and Jason and the Vice City ecosystem, and the screenshots capture long-tail searches like "GTA 6 screenshots" / "Game Informer GTA 6". We've split the world-level details into a separate piece below.
