GTA 6 Second Trailer Out Now!

Meet Jason and Lucia

Following the announcement of a postponed release next year, Rockstar Games unveiled the second trailer for GTA 6 on May 6. This trailer showcases the enhanced, next-gen rendition of Vice City and introduces us to its residents, providing fans with a closer look at the game's dual protagonists, Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos. The official GTA 6 website delves into their backgrounds and motivations, setting the stage for their journey through the bustling streets of Vice City.

The narrative unfolds with Jason and Lucia, who are all too aware that the odds are against them. Their lives take a dramatic turn when a seemingly straightforward heist goes awry, thrusting them into the heart of a criminal conspiracy that spans the state of Leonida. The story synopsis teases their struggle: "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 attempting to outrun his past but finds himself entangled with local drug runners in Leonida Keys. His meeting with Lucia could prove to be a turning point in his life, one he hopes will lead to a brighter future.

Lucia, on the other hand, learned to fight early in life thanks to her father. Her tough upbringing led her to the Leonida Penitentiary, but upon her release, she's determined to make smarter choices to provide a better life for her mother, whom she dreams of reuniting with in Liberty City. Fresh out of prison, Lucia sees a potential new beginning with Jason as they navigate the vibrant yet dangerous landscape of Vice City.

A Conspiracy Theorist, Local Vice City Legend, Seasoned Bank Robber, and More

Beyond the protagonists, the trailer introduces a cast of intriguing characters that enrich the world of GTA 6. Jason's friend, Cal Hampton, is a conspiracy theorist who trusts everything he reads online. Despite his quirks, Cal is a loyal ally to Jason and plays a crucial role in his plans.

Vice City's streets are also ruled by local legend Boobie Ike, who has transformed his street smarts into a legitimate empire, including real estate, a strip club, and a recording studio. The game delves into the music scene with characters like Dre’Quan and the duo Real Dimez, adding a vibrant layer to the city's culture.

On the darker side, seasoned bank robber Raul Bautista is always ready to take high-stakes risks for the biggest rewards. Meanwhile, Brian Heder, a veteran drug runner, operates a smuggling business in the Keys and offers Jason a rent-free place to stay in exchange for assistance with local shakedowns.

The trailer hints at more characters to come, but these introductions already paint a picture of the diverse and dynamic world that awaits players in GTA 6.
