The excitement surrounding Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6) has reached new heights with the release of its second trailer, showcasing the vibrant world of next-gen Vice City and introducing fans to its colorful cast of characters.

GTA 6 Second Trailer Out Now!

Meet Jason and Lucia

Following the announcement of a delay in its highly-anticipated release, Rockstar Games treated fans to GTA 6's second trailer on May 6. The trailer offers an in-depth look at the next-gen Vice City and the lives of its residents.

The video sheds light on the game's two protagonists, Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos. Detailed information about their backgrounds and motivations can be found on GTA 6's official website, illustrating their journey through the hustle and bustle of Vice City.

The story synopsis describes, "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 with a troubled past, finds himself working for local drug runners in Leonida Keys. His life takes a pivotal turn when he meets Lucia, and he hopes this encounter will lead to something positive.

Lucia, on the other hand, learned to fight from her father at a young age. Her challenging 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 cherished back in Liberty City. A life with Jason might be her ticket out of her past troubles, and players will follow their intertwined journey amidst the vibrant backdrop of Leonida Keys.

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

Rockstar Games also introduced several key characters who add depth to the game's narrative. Among them is Cal Hampton, Jason's friend and a conspiracy theorist who trusts everything he reads online. Despite his paranoia, Cal enjoys life in the Keys and plays a significant role in helping Jason with his grand schemes.

Vice City's streets are ruled by Boobie Ike, a local legend who transformed his street life into a legitimate empire. He owns real estate, a strip club, and a recording studio, adding an exciting layer to the game's exploration of the music industry, with characters like Dre’Quan and the music duo Real Dimez.

On the criminal side, Raul Bautista is a seasoned bank robber known for his high-risk, high-reward approach. Brian Heder, a veteran drug runner operating in the Keys, offers Jason rent-free living in exchange for assistance in local shakedowns. These characters, along with others featured in the trailer, highlight the diverse and engaging cast inhabiting the sunny side of Vice City.

Key locations showcased include the tropical archipelago of Leonida Keys, the vast expanse of Grassrivers, the forgotten coast of Port Gellhorn, the bustling heart of Leonida in Ambrosia, and the national landmark Mount Kalaga.
