Grand Theft Auto VI is an upcoming open-world action game developed and published by Rockstar Games. It is set in the fictional state of Leonida, featuring the neon-filled Vice City and surrounding areas. The story centers on Jason and Lucia, whose lives become intertwined after an attempted score goes wrong and draws them into a wider criminal conspiracy.
The game is designed as a single-player experience. Rockstar has confirmed Jason and Lucia as the central protagonists and describes their story as spanning the state of Leonida. Officially revealed locations and characters indicate a broad setting extending beyond Vice City, including the Leonida Keys.
Grand Theft Auto VI is notable as the next mainline entry in Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto series and the follow-up to Grand Theft Auto V. Rockstar originally announced the game for 2025, but later moved the release date to November 19, 2026. The currently confirmed launch platforms are PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
The game is currently available for pre-order, with Standard and Ultimate editions confirmed. Rockstar has also confirmed that the physical version contains a download code rather than a game disc.
