Dive into the vibrant world of Vice City with GTA 6's second trailer, now showcasing the next-gen environment and its diverse cast of characters. Here's everything you need to know about the game's protagonists and the colorful residents of this sun-soaked city.

GTA 6 Second Trailer Out Now!

Meet Jason and Lucia

After much anticipation, Rockstar Games released the second trailer for Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6) on May 6, following an announcement of a release delay into the next year. The trailer dives deeper into the next-gen rendition of Vice City, introducing fans to the game's protagonists, Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos.

According to the game's official website, the story follows Jason and Lucia, who face stacked odds but find themselves entangled in a criminal conspiracy across Leonida after a botched heist. The synopsis teases, "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 trying to escape his past but ends up working for local drug runners in Leonida Keys. His life takes a turn upon meeting Lucia, potentially for better or worse. Lucia, hardened by a rough upbringing and time spent in Leonida Penitentiary, aims to turn her life around for her mother's sake, seeing a partnership with Jason as her ticket out.

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

The trailer also introduces other key characters who add depth to the game's narrative. Jason's friend, Cal Hampton, is a conspiracy theorist who aids Jason in his schemes while navigating life in the Keys. Boobie Ike, a local legend, has turned his street life into a legitimate empire, including real estate, a strip club, and a recording studio, hinting at the game's exploration into the music industry with characters like Dre’Quan and the duo Real Dimez.

On the darker side, Raul Bautista is a seasoned bank robber, while Brian Heder runs a smuggling operation, offering Jason a rent-free place to stay in exchange for help with local shakedowns. These characters, among others, paint a vivid picture of the diverse and dynamic world of Vice City.
