Rockstar Games will release “Grand Theft Auto VI” on November 19, featuring protagonists Jason Duval and Lucia Camino. The game is set in the fictional state of Leonida, inspired by Florida, and will be available on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and S.
According to the official description from publisher Rockstar Games, “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.” The pair form a Bonnie-and-Clyde-esque relationship as drug runners, with Lucia seeking a better life after being released from prison.
The game’s map is reportedly larger than those in previous installments, expanding beyond the city limits of Vice City – a Miami-inspired locale – to include regions like the Leonida Keys, Grassrivers, Port Gellhorn, Mount Kalaga and Ambrosia. A preview released on Netflix on August 27 showcased gameplay captured on PlayStation 5.
Additional characters confirmed to appear in “Grand Theft Auto VI” include Cal Hampton, Jason’s friend and associate; Boobie Ike, a Vice City legend who owns real estate, a strip club, and a recording studio; and Dre’Quan Priest, an aspiring musician performing at Boobie’s strip club. While the game will initially launch on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and S, a PC release date has not been confirmed, though previous “GTA” games have been released on PC after their console debuts.
