What will GTA 6 be about?
Reading into the footage revealed during the trailer, players can expect GTA 6 to include the gaming series' first female protagonist. GTA 6's storyline will follow Lucia, who is seen in prison at the start of the trailer before being released.
We also expect there to be a second playable character (Lucia's love interest) although the trailer does not confirm this, it does tease fans with the idea.
Later on in the trailer, we see Lucia and her presumed love interest make a pact together before adventuring on a Bonnie and Clyde-esque heist before making their getaway.
In a statement about Grand Theft Auto 6, Rockstar Games said:
“Grand Theft Auto VI heads to the state of Leonida, home to the neon-soaked streets of Vice City and beyond in the biggest, most immersive evolution of the Grand Theft Auto series yet."
Players can expect to explore dive bars, beach parties, swamplands, farms, airports, and everything in between.

What City is GTA 6 set in?
The Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer revealed that the latest installment in the blockbuster GTA series will return players to Rockstar's fictional Miami setting, Vice City, which was last seen in 2006's GTA: Vice City Stories.
Unlike the 2006 game, however, Rockstar has expanded further than Vice City in GTA 6. The game will see players able to sprawl the fictional city of Leonida, which is inspired by Miami and greater Florida.
Diverse Gaming Map
Leonida will be made up of a lot more than just Vice City. The fictional state will also include dense urban areas, suburban neighborhoods, beach resorts, wetland areas, and much more.
The trailer reveals different locations on the map like Port Vice City, The Keys, Vice Beaches, Hamlet, Waning Sands, and beyond.
