GTA 6 Release Date, Vice City Return, Gameplay Details, and What to Expect in Fall 2025

A financial report by Rockstar Games shows that GTA 6 is planned for release in Fall 2025. The game will come to PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, with a PC version appearing possibly at a later date. Now, if the rumors of the PS5 Pro are to be believed, GTA 6 will tap into the extra power of Sony’s newer hardware for an even better experience. The first trailer was released on December 4 last year and introduced Lucia, one-half of the protagonists in this story, and flaunted the game’s breathtaking graphics.

Set in the fictional state of Leonida, GTA 6 takes us back to Vice City and its surrounding areas, featuring vibrant beaches, bustling nightlife, and even alligators. Rockstar calls the game the “biggest, most immersive evolution” in the franchise’s history. GTA 6’s two playable protagonists — Lucia and her unnamed partner — are robbing their way across the country in elaborate heists. Though originally rumored to cover both North and South America, this confirmation has now confirmed that the map will center over Vice City and its surrounding area.

Rockstar teased that the map would expand after the launch of GTA 6 with new areas, interiors, and mission. Though not confirmed, it is expected that GTA 6 will cost more than both GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2. The game may be released in India for a price tag of approximately ₹6,000. Multiple release dates have been pushed back, and a giant gameplay leak just recently appeared. Fans still await the official timeline from Rockstar Games.
