The GTA 6 Story
The GTA 6 story and setting: a modern Vice City crime saga following Lucia Caminos and Jason Duval across the state of Leonida.
Grand Theft Auto VI is shaping up to be a modern Vice City crime saga. Everything below is grounded in Rockstar Games's official trailers — we steer clear of leaks and rumor.
The setup
The story follows Lucia Caminos and Jason Duval, two leads bound together by circumstance, ambition, and a dangerous partnership. The trailers frame them as a contemporary outlaw couple — a relationship that's as much about loyalty and survival as it is about the next score.
The setting: modern Leonida
It all unfolds across Leonida, a fictional Florida-inspired state, centered on the city of Vice City. The world blends sun-drenched beaches, neon nightlife, swampy backcountry, and small-town sprawl into a satirical take on modern Florida. Expect Rockstar's signature social commentary — media, influencers, and excess all in the crosshairs.
Themes the trailers hint at
- Two-hander storytelling: a dual-protagonist narrative built on the bond between Lucia and Jason.
- Modern satire: a present-day world poking at internet culture and the American Dream.
- Reinvention of Vice City: a familiar location rebuilt at a far greater scale and density.
What's still unconfirmed
Rockstar is keeping the bulk of the plot under wraps. Specific missions, story beats, the supporting cast, and how the campaign structures its two leads all remain unconfirmed. We'll expand this page as official details arrive.
