A new open world

Vice City is only the beginning.

GTA VI returns to the neon streets of Vice City, but expands the setting into the fictional state of Leonida — a huge world inspired by Florida, with cities, highways, beaches, islands, swamps and rural areas.

The protagonists

Jason & Lucia.

At the center of GTA VI is a criminal partnership between Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos. Their relationship is one of the core elements of the story, with the pair drawn deeper into a dangerous conspiracy after a robbery goes wrong.

Rockstar reveals that the next Grand Theft Auto will return to Vice City and expand far beyond the original game's setting.

Launch

Grand Theft Auto VI is scheduled to launch on November 19, 2026 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.

Gameplay

A living, reactive world.

Rockstar is putting enormous emphasis on simulation, animation and environmental detail. GTA VI is designed to feel less like a static playground and more like a world that keeps operating around the player.

Advanced animation

Movement, combat, climbing, sprinting and vehicle interactions are designed to be significantly more fluid and physical.

Reactive NPCs

Civilians, crowds and characters respond to events and behave differently depending on their surroundings.

Dynamic environments

Weather, wildlife, traffic and changing locations contribute to a world that feels continuously active.

More than missions.

Leonida is built around activities, exploration and systems that exist outside the main storyline.

Street racing, golf, fishing, hunting, water activities, clubs, bars and a variety of minigames.

Wildlife

Alligators, flamingos, dogs, deer, birds, fish and other wildlife form part of Leonida's environment.

Social media

In-game social platforms and short-form videos reflect and parody today's internet culture.

Weapons

The weapon system is more physical and contextual, with equipment and vehicle storage playing a bigger role.

Exploration

From neon city streets to beaches, islands, highways and wetlands, Leonida is built to reward free exploration.
