GTA 6 Trailer 2 Unveils Story, Vice City, Characters

Dive into the vibrant world of Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6) with its second trailer, showcasing the next-generation Vice City and its diverse cast of characters. This article explores the game’s protagonists, Jason and Lucia, along with other intriguing figures in the sunny Vice City.

GTA 6 Second Trailer Out Now!

Meet Jason and Lucia

Following a much-discussed delay, Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6) has released its eagerly awaited second trailer on May 6, giving fans a deeper look into the next-gen Vice City and its inhabitants. The trailer introduces us to the game's dual protagonists, Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos, whose backgrounds and motivations are detailed on the official GTA 6 website.

The story synopsis reveals, "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 Army soldier, is trying to escape his troubled past but finds himself entangled in the Leonida Keys, working for local drug runners. His meeting with Lucia could be pivotal for his future. Lucia, on the other hand, learned to fight from her father at a young age. Her rough upbringing led her to Leonida Penitentiary, and upon release, she's determined to make smart moves to provide a better life for her mother, as they had always dreamed of back in Liberty City. A life with Jason might just be her ticket to changing her odds.

Players will immerse themselves in Jason and Lucia's gripping journey through the colorful and vibrant world of Vice City.

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

Beyond the protagonists, the trailer introduces a variety of other key characters. Jason's friend Cal Hampton is a conspiracy theorist who trusts everything he reads online, yet his casual paranoia doesn't stop him from being a valuable ally to Jason in their bigger plans.

Vice City's streets are ruled by local legend Boobie Ike, who turned his street life into a legitimate empire, including real estate, a strip club, and a recording studio. The game also delves into the music industry with characters like Dre’Quan and the music duo Real Dimez.

On the darker side, seasoned bank robber Raul Bautista is always ready to take risks for the biggest rewards. Meanwhile, Brian Heder runs a smuggling business in the Keys and offers Jason a rent-free home in exchange for help with local shakedowns.

With these characters and more, GTA 6 promises a rich tapestry of stories and interactions in the sunny side of Vice City.
