GTA 6 Second Trailer Now Available!

Meet Jason and Lucia

The buzz around Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6) has intensified since Rockstar Games announced a delay in its eagerly anticipated release. To keep fans engaged, the studio released the second trailer for GTA 6 on May 6, offering a deeper look into the revamped Vice City and its inhabitants.

This trailer sheds more 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, enriching the narrative as they navigate the dynamic environment 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 struggling to leave his past behind, finds himself entangled with local drug runners in Leonida Keys. His meeting with Lucia could be pivotal, and he hopes it leads to a positive outcome.

Lucia, trained in combat by her father from a young age, faced a tough upbringing that led to her incarceration in Leonida Penitentiary. Upon release, she is determined to make wiser choices to provide a better life for her mother, reminiscent of their dreams in Liberty City. A life with Jason might be her ticket to turning the odds in her favor. Players will follow their journey through Vice City, interacting with a vibrant array of characters.

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

In addition to the protagonists, Rockstar Games introduced several key supporting characters. Cal Hampton, Jason's friend, is a conspiracy theorist who trusts everything he reads online. Despite his paranoia, he enjoys life in the Keys and assists Jason with 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 also delves into the music scene with characters like Dre’Quan and the 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 offers Jason a rent-free place to stay in exchange for help with local shakedowns.

These characters, among others featured in the trailer, highlight the rich tapestry of personalities that inhabit Vice City.
