The first GTA VI trailer is here

The trailer confirms many little details that have slowly come out about GTA VI over the last two years, including the Vice City setting and that the game would star the series’s first female protagonist with Bonnie and Clyde-inspired story elements. The trailer says GTA VI is set to release in 2025, though it doesn’t specify which platforms the game will be available on.

Ten years in the making, GTA VI’s first trailer could have been nothing more than the Roman numeral for six, and it would have likely fueled discussion and speculation until the heat death of the universe. Fortunately, the trailer was meatier than that, featuring GTA standards — fast cars, reckless gunplay, handfuls full of ill-gotten cash, and general American-flavored hedonism — set against the backdrop of Vice City, a fictionalized version of Miami.

The trailer focused on a single protagonist, a woman by the name of Lucia. Apparently, Lucia, shown in a prison jumpsuit at the beginning of the trailer, will do some crimes with her boyfriend after ostensibly being released from jail.

GTA VI’s reveal has been rife with leaked information. Earlier this year, a teenager from the UK was found responsible for last year’s leak that distributed 90 videos from the in-development process. Additionally, this week, a video on TikTok surfaced that claimed to be leaked footage from the game that allegedly came from a Rockstar employee’s kid. The TikTok videos (which, as of publishing, are still available on service) feature footage of a computer monitor showing off wide shots of the game’s setting.
