Every official trailer

Six official videos from Rockstar on the road to launch, from the record-breaking reveal to the Launch Trailer captured entirely on PS5.

// The protagonists

Jason & Lucia

Grand Theft Auto VI heads to the state of Leonida, home to the neon-soaked streets of Vice City and beyond, in the biggest, most immersive evolution of the series yet. When a sure-thing score goes wrong, two partners in crime find themselves on the darkest side of the sunniest place in America.

Jason Duval

Lucia Caminos

Fresh out of the Leonida Penitentiary and done playing by the rules. She's determined to build a better life, by any means necessary.
