Teased to drop on December 5, 2023, a leak prompted Rockstar to put the trailer out a bit ahead of time, giving the world its first glimpse into the return to Vice City and an introduction to the game’s new dual protagonists.

GTA VI Release Window

GTA VI will now be officially released in the fall of 2025. Yes, Rockstar has confirmed this release window, ending speculation that the game may further be delayed from this period.

This confirmation follows reports that claimed Rockstar was internally concerned about production delays.

To ensure that it hits the shelves in 2025, Rockstar has made certain that all employees return to full-time, in-office work- a decision that’s raising concerns for some developers about its implication for the game’s development.

GTA VI Characters

The GTA VI trailer introduced us to the new protagonists featured in the game, one of whom was the series’ first-ever female lead, Lucia.

The information regarding her character is few and between, but from the trailer, it looks like she has a rough past; she was even clad in prison garb.

Lucia is quite often shown alongside a male character, apparently part of the game’s storyline.
However, his name has not been identified because he has unofficially identified either Jason or James.

The two display much affection, similar to a Bonnie and Clyde relationship, with certain criminal activities that they share.

GTA VI Locations

GTA VI goes back to Vice City, this time in a modern setting. This game is set in Leonida State, with neon-lit streets from the core area of Vice City to its outskirts.

The trailer had already shown us an incredibly striking first look at the remodeled Vice City, with such iconic environments, instantly recognizable, as Starfish Island, and possibly other classic areas like the Malibu Club and Ocean View Hotel.

Fans were quick to find locales from the original Vice City within the new trailer and make comparisons, showcasing the iconic setting’s remarkable detail and how it has evolved.

GTA VI Platforms

So far, it’s confirmed that GTA VI will be available on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S when it launches in 2025. However, it won’t be coming to PS4 or Xbox One, so rest assured this will be strictly a current-gen title.

As for a PC release, there has been no official confirmation yet. Historically, previous GTA titles were released on consoles first, followed by a later PC release.

Based on insider reports, it seems PC gamers might have to wait until 2026 to play GTA VI. While disappointing, this delay aligns with Rockstar’s focus on prioritizing PS5 and Xbox Series X/S versions first.

GTA VI News and Announcements

The first official mention of GTA VI premiered in February 2022, when Rockstar Games, in a very understated comment, announced the game was “well underway” as part of a general broader comment/update regarding GTA V and GTA Online.

Since then, the gaming company has remained fairly quiet; its is broadcasting behavior typical of this behavior, at least until significant leaks occurred and confirmation by Rockstar followed.

GTA VI Leaks – What We Know So Far In September 2022, GTA VI experienced a major leak, with a large number of videos and screenshots from an in-development build being shared around the internet.

Rockstar quickly confirmed the legitimacy of the leak and expressed disappointment at the leak and the game being shown in this way.

Nevertheless, it ensured fans that the development and the planned release of the game would not be affected.

The responsible hacker has been declared psychiatrically unstable to stand trial, and Rockstar remains protected in the development process by increasing levels of security.

While this was major, Rockstar is focused on releasing a game that has pushed the boundaries of what the GTA series can achieve.

The waiting of fans for the launch of GTA VI in 2025 is going to be a historic event, and until this event happens, it is left to the imagination of what the final product will offer.

More updates as it gets closer to the release of what could arguably be the most ambitious GTA game yet.
