Gta 6 Trailer Song

Sam Houser, founder of Rockstar Games, stated that the game would push the boundaries of open-world, narrative-driven games: “Grand Theft Auto VI continues our efforts to expand the possibilities in highly intelligent, open-world narrative games. We eagerly await the chance to share our new vision with players worldwide.”

The debut trailer, leaked and officially released early, showcased main characters Lucia and Jason, first seen in last year’s leaked footage from the test version of “Six.” Lucia will be the first female lead in the Grand Theft Auto series.

The trailer consists of gameplay footage intertwined with cinematic inserts, highlighting the game’s incredible draw distance, detailed character models, sophisticated lighting system, and enchanting nature, all subtitled in Russian.

The Long Road Ahead: GTA 6’s PC Release Delayed Until At Least 2026

Grand Theft Auto Vi

Tom Warren, the chief editor of The Verge, rushed to announce that Grand Theft Auto VI has been confirmed for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and Series S.

The official press release from Rockstar Games states that players will be taken to the state of Leonida, featuring the neon-drenched streets of Vice City in what they describe as “the most significant and thrilling evolution in the Grand Theft Auto series to date.”

This announcement indicates that GTA 6 will be released exclusively on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S in 2025. This is unfortunate news for PC users, who will have to be patient. The game might not appear on PC until 2026 or even 2027.

Similarly, Red Dead Redemption 2 had a gap of over a year between its console release in October 2018 and its PC debut in November 2019.
