Gamers, the wait is finally over! After 13 long years, Rockstar Games has officially announced Grand Theft Auto 6 (GTA 6). And yes, it’s coming soon! This is huge news for millions of fans who have been waiting since GTA 5 for the next big open-world adventure.
The good part? Two trailers are already out. And now, we have clear details about the game’s story, characters, map, and price.
GTA 6 Release Date Officially Announced
Rockstar originally planned to launch GTA 6 in late 2025. But now, the release date has been pushed to May 26, 2026. Why? Simply to make sure the game quality is top-notch. No compromises here!
GTA 6 will launch exclusively on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Bad news for PC gamers—there’s no official word yet on a PC version. And no, it won’t be available on PS4 or Xbox One either. So, this game is built specially for current-generation consoles only.
Meet the New GTA 6 Characters
This time, GTA 6 brings two main characters — Lucia Caminos and Jason Duvall. In the second trailer, we see Lucia getting released from jail. Together, Lucia and Jason form a crime duo, and fans are already comparing them to the legendary Bonnie and Clyde.
But that’s not all. You’ll also meet other cool characters like:
- Cal Hampton (Jason’s friend)
- Booby Ike (a local legend in Vice City)
- Dre’Quan Priest (a musician turned gangster)
Each character adds more depth and fun to the story.
New Stealth Features in Gameplay
Rockstar hasn’t dropped full gameplay videos yet. But leaks suggest some exciting changes.
This time, stealth mechanics are a big deal. Players can now hide from enemies, pick up bodies, and sneak quietly during missions. Action scenes, high-speed chases, and big heists — everything looks more intense and deeper than ever before.
Welcome Back to Vice City & New Locations
GTA 6’s story takes place in the fictional state of Leonida, which brings back the fan-favorite Vice City.
But the map is even bigger now. New locations include:
- Grassrivers
- Leonida Keys

Expect everything — from tropical islands to swamps and rural towns. Experts are already calling it the biggest GTA map ever.
