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 eagerly anticipated release to next year. To keep the excitement alive, the studio released the second trailer on May 6, showcasing the revamped Vice City and its inhabitants.
The trailer offers a deeper look into the lives of the game's two protagonists, Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos. According to GTA 6's official website, their backgrounds and motivations are intricately woven into the fabric of Vice City's bustling environment.
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 finds himself in Leonida Keys, working for local drug runners. His encounter 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 tough upbringing led her to Leonida Penitentiary. Now out of prison, she's determined to make smart moves to provide a better life for her mother, a dream they shared since their days in Liberty City. A life with Jason might be her ticket to a fresh start. Players will follow their journey through the vibrant world of Leonida Keys.
A Conspiracy Theorist, Local Vice City Legend, Seasoned Bank Robber, and More
Beyond the protagonists, Rockstar Games introduces a colorful array of supporting 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 helps Jason with his grand schemes.
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 delves into the music industry 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.
With these characters and more, GTA 6 promises a rich tapestry of stories and personalities in the sunny side of Vice City.
