In a recent press release, Rockstar Games confirmed the setting of GTA VI in Vice City, situated in the fictional state of Leonida, and reaffirmed the 2025 release date. The game is designed to be compatible with the latest PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series consoles. The trailer suggests that GTA VI will continue the series' tradition of an open-world format, featuring mission-based gameplay, a wide range of vehicles, and diverse locations for exploration. The game will also include elements of action and interactions with law enforcement. The trailer provides a glimpse into how social media might play a role in the game’s story, though the specifics of this integration are not yet fully revealed.

Earlier in the month, Rockstar Games had planned to premiere the GTA VI trailer on December 5. However, an unauthorized leak of the trailer led the company to acknowledge the breach and subsequently release the official trailer ahead of the scheduled date.
