Rockstar Games has released the official trailer for the highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA VI), earlier than expected due to an unexpected leak. The game, set for a 2025 release, introduces a significant change in the series by featuring the first female protagonist, Lucia.
The trailer provides a glimpse into the game's environment, set in Rockstar's fictional Miami setting, Vice City. It showcases fast cars, flamingos, strip clubs, and rooftop parties, promising an immersive experience for players. The protagonist, Lucia, emphasizes the importance of teamwork in navigating their criminal endeavors.
The announcement of a female protagonist has sparked a debate on the internet, with some fans excited about the change, while others accuse Rockstar Games of being 'woke'. Despite the mixed reviews, the game is set to be released on various platforms, including Sony's Playstation 5 and Microsoft's Xbox Series X & S consoles.
Interestingly, the unexpected leak of the trailer led to a surge in prices of meme tokens in the crypto market. Investors are advised to be cautious of potential scams related to this event.
Rockstar Games has faced criticism for extreme overtime conditions in the past, but recent reports suggest they have made efforts to improve their work culture. Reports about GTA 6 began emerging in 2020, and official confirmation of its development came in 2022.
The game is described as the biggest and most immersive evolution of the Grand Theft Auto series, and fans are eagerly awaiting its release.
