The trailer gives an insight into the setting, the protagonist Lucia, and her apparent partner, who will also be a protagonist in GTA VI. The trailer shows a scene at a prison with a shot of Lucia.

The trailer shows scenes from the nightlife, in-game social media, the city skyline, the beach, and the wide variety of populations that will probably be seen in a game.

While it has been known that GTA VI will be set in Vice City, Rockstar Games has clarified the title’s setting. The map has been confirmed to be huge.

The developers have mentioned that GTA VI will be set in Leonida, which is home to the neon-soaked streets of Vice City. Rockstar Games have boldly claimed this to be their most significant and most immersive GTA title ever.

The reveal trailer said a lot without revealing much at all. It showed the vast body of the lake that is supposed to be at the center of the map, encompassing some improved water physics, thanks to the in-house Rage Engine.

The release window is set to be in 2025. A first-quarter release is expected in 2025, according to industry insiders. This would keep Rockstar’s projection of USD 8 billion in annual bookings on track.

More details are expected in the coming months, as trailer one is expected to be just the tip of the iceberg. Fans cannot rest easy; this indicates that the massive hype surrounding GTA VI is genuine.
