GTA 6 is Rockstar’s first new mainline entry in over a decade. Trailer 2 confirms its narrative focus, a bold new setting, and a May 2026 target — setting the tone for what may become the most ambitious GTA ever.
👥 Lucia & Jason Explained – GTA 6’s New Protagonists
Lucia Caminos and Jason Duval aren’t just partners in crime — they’re survivors. The trailer opens with Lucia being released from Leonida Penitentiary, with Jason waiting outside. From there, it’s a ride through high-stakes drama, loyalty, and fast money.
This ain’t Trevor and Michael. Lucia and Jason feel grounded, gritty, and real — like two people who’ve already lost everything and are gambling with what’s left.
🗺️ Vice City Returns: Exploring GTA 6’s Leonida Map
We’re back in Vice — but not just Vice. The game takes place in Leonida, Rockstar’s fictional remix of Florida. You’ve got swamps, suburbs, skylines, and high-speed chases cutting through all of it. It’s massive, diverse, and unpredictable.
Expect more than a city sandbox — this is an entire state full of wild physics, weather, and personality.
🎶 Soundtrack & Vibes
The trailer’s backed by “Hot Together” by The Pointer Sisters — and the vibe is immaculate. Funky, fast, and full of tension. It perfectly matches the tone of what feels like a neon-soaked heist drama.
👀 Standout Moments From the Trailer
- 🚔 Lucia's prison release and their low-key reunion
- 🛥️ Police chases through swamps and highways
- 🏙️ Club brawls, rooftop escapes, and street standoffs
"Leonida isn't just the setting — it's basically the third main character."
📅 Launch Details
- Release Date: May 26, 2026

Main story length: Estimated 35–50 hours before side quests or online content.

💬 Final Thoughts – Is This Rockstar’s Magnum Opus?
GTA 6 Trailer 2 doesn’t just tease another entry — it feels like the next evolution of Rockstar storytelling. Lucia and Jason already have more personality than some full game casts. And Leonida? It’s basically the third character.
If they stick the landing, GTA 6 could go down as the biggest open-world game of all time.
