The GTA 6 trailer confirms that the game will take place in Leonida, Vice City, which is inspired by Miami, Florida. The story will center around protagonist Lucia, who has just gotten out of jail. Following her release from prison, it appears she goes on a crime spree across Vice City with her boyfriend.

The nearly two-minute video shows off a handful of gameplay, plot elements, and side characters that we can expect to run into while exploring Leonida. Interestingly, the trailer also appears to confirm the major leaks from 2021 were real. In the leaks from a couple of years ago, a hacker posted images of the dual protagonists that are in the final trailer. It remains to be seen if Rockstar Games will have more information to release about the game.

Grand Theft Auto 6 will be released in 2025. Rockstar Games has released the GTA 6 trailer early after it was leaked on social media.
