GTA 6: Everything We Know Before Launch
Leonida, Vice City, Jason and Lucia, the supporting cast, editions and pre-load, all taken from Rockstar's official pages.
This is what Rockstar has officially shared about Grand Theft Auto VI so far.
The setting: Leonida
The game is set in the state of Leonida, with a modern-day Vice City. Rockstar’s Only in Leonida page covers these areas: Vice City, Leonida Keys, Grassrivers, Port Gellhorn, Ambrosia and Mount Kalaga.
The main characters
You play as Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos. Rockstar says Jason grew up around grifters and crooks and ended up in the Keys working for local drug runners. Lucia landed in the Leonida Penitentiary after fighting for her family, and she is now fresh out of prison with a plan.
The supporting cast
Rockstar’s official page also introduces:
Each one has an entry in the GTA 6 database.
The videos
Rockstar’s media page lists Trailer 1, Trailer 2, An Extended Look and the Launch Trailer (October 15, 2026), plus short clips for each character above.
Editions and bonuses
There are two editions, Standard and Ultimate. Standard owners can buy the Ultimate Edition Upgrade later. Digital pre-orders and purchases made before November 20, 2026 include the Vintage Vice City Pack: the ’55 Vapid Stanier Sedan and Garage, outfits and hairstyles, an exclusive weapon pattern and one month of GTA+. Boxed copies contain a download code, not a disc.
