Dive into the vibrant world of Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6) as the second trailer unveils the next-generation Vice City and its intriguing cast of characters.

GTA 6 Second Trailer Now Available!

Meet Jason and Lucia

Grand Theft Auto VI has stirred excitement across the gaming community, especially after Rockstar Games announced a delay in its eagerly awaited release. To ease the wait, the studio released the second trailer on May 6, offering fans a deeper look into the revamped Vice City and its residents.

The trailer delves into the lives of the game's two protagonists, Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos. Their detailed backgrounds and motivations are available on GTA 6’s official website, showcasing their journey through 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 attempting to escape his troubled past. He finds himself in Leonida Keys, working for local drug runners. His meeting with Lucia could be a turning point, and he hopes it will be for the better.

Lucia, having learned to fight from her father, faced a rough upbringing that led her to the Leonida Penitentiary. Now out of prison, she aims to make smart moves to give her mother the life they dreamed of back in Liberty City. A life with Jason might just be her ticket to turning the odds in her favor.

Players will follow Jason and Lucia's adventures alongside a vibrant cast in the sunlit Leonida Keys.

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

Beyond the protagonists, Rockstar Games introduces several key characters that enrich the game's narrative. Jason’s friend, Cal Hampton, is a conspiracy theorist who trusts everything he reads online. Despite his paranoia, he enjoys the Keys and assists Jason in his grander 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 also touches on the music industry, featuring characters like Dre’Quan and the music duo Real Dimez.

Raul Bautista, a seasoned bank robber, embodies the city's criminal underbelly, always ready to risk it all for the biggest rewards. Meanwhile, Brian Heder, a veteran drug runner, operates a smuggling business in the Keys and offers Jason rent-free accommodation in exchange for assistance in local shakedowns.

With these characters and more, GTA 6 promises a rich tapestry of stories and personalities in Vice City.
