GTA 6 Second Trailer Out Now!
Meet Jason and Lucia
Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6) has been generating buzz, especially after Rockstar Games announced a delay in its much-anticipated release to next year. To keep the excitement alive, the studio released GTA 6's second trailer on May 6, showcasing the revamped Vice City and its inhabitants.
The trailer sheds light on the game's dual protagonists, Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos. Their detailed backstories and motivations are available on GTA 6's official website, providing insight into their lives amidst the bustling streets of Vice City.
The story synopsis reveals, "Jason and Lucia have always known the deck is stacked against them. But when an easy score goes wrong, they find themselves on the darkest side of the sunniest place in America, in the middle of a criminal conspiracy stretching across the state of Leonida — forced to rely on each other more than ever if they want to make it out alive."
Jason, a former soldier, is trying to escape his troubled past. He now finds himself in Leonida Keys, working for local drug runners. His meeting with Lucia could be a turning point, and he hopes it leads to a better future.
Lucia, on the other hand, learned to fight from her father at a young age. Her challenging upbringing led her to Leonida Penitentiary. After her release, she is determined to make smart moves to provide a better life for her mother, a dream they shared since their days in Liberty City.
Fresh out of prison, Lucia sees a potential new beginning with Jason. Players will follow their journey through the vibrant world of Leonida Keys, interacting with a diverse cast of characters.
A Conspiracy Theorist, Local Vice City Legend, Seasoned Bank Robber, and More
In addition to the protagonists, Rockstar Games introduced several key characters. Jason's friend, Cal Hampton, is a conspiracy theorist who trusts everything he reads online. Despite his paranoia, he enjoys life in the Keys and supports Jason in his ambitious plans.
Boobie Ike, a local legend, has transformed his street life into a legitimate empire, owning real estate, a strip club, and a recording studio. The game will delve into the music industry, featuring characters like Dre’Quan and the music duo Real Dimez.
On the criminal side, Raul Bautista is a seasoned bank robber, always ready to take risks for big rewards. Brian Heder, a veteran drug runner, operates a smuggling business in the Keys and allows Jason to live rent-free in one of his properties in exchange for help with local shakedowns.
The trailer hints at more characters, but those detailed by Rockstar Games so far showcase the rich diversity of Vice City's inhabitants.
