GTA 6 Second Trailer Out Now!
Meet Jason and Lucia
Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6) has been creating waves of excitement, especially after Rockstar Games announced a delay in its eagerly awaited release. Following this news, the studio released GTA 6's second trailer on May 6, giving fans a closer look at the revamped Vice City and its inhabitants.
The trailer sheds light on the game's dual protagonists, Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos. According to GTA 6's official website, both characters have detailed backstories and compelling motivations as they navigate 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 but finds himself entangled in Leonida Keys, working for local drug runners. His meeting with Lucia could be a turning point, and he hopes it will lead to a brighter future.
Lucia, on the other hand, learned to fight from her father at a young age. Her tough upbringing led her to the Leonida Penitentiary. Upon release, she is determined to make smarter choices to provide a better life for her mother, a dream they shared since their days in Liberty City. Now out of prison, Lucia aims to turn her fortunes around, and a life with Jason might be her ticket out.
Players will follow Jason and Lucia's journey through the vibrant and colorful world of Leonida Keys.
A Conspiracy Theorist, Local Vice City Legend, Seasoned Bank Robber, and More
In addition to the protagonists, Rockstar Games introduced several key characters that enrich the game's narrative. Jason's friend, Cal Hampton, is a conspiracy theorist who believes everything he reads online. Despite his paranoia, he enjoys life in the Keys and assists Jason with his grander schemes.
Boobie Ike, a local legend in Vice City, transformed his street life into a legitimate empire, owning real estate, a strip club, and a recording studio. The game promises to delve into the music scene, featuring characters like Dre’Quan and the music duo Real Dimez.
On the darker side of the city, Raul Bautista, a seasoned bank robber, is always ready to take risks for big rewards. Brian Heder, a veteran drug runner, operates his smuggling business in the Keys and offers Jason a rent-free place to stay in exchange for help with local shakedowns.
With these characters and more, GTA 6 promises a richly detailed and diverse cast that brings the sunny side of Vice City to life.
