Grand Theft Auto VI follows dual protagonists Jason and Lucia through a criminal conspiracy across the state of Leonida and modern-day Vice City. After an easy score goes awry, the pair is forced to navigate the region's underworld and rely on each other to survive.
Gameplay features third-person combat, updated NPC interaction systems, cover mechanics, and distinct vehicle theft options like slim gyms or window smashing. Players manage both wallet cash and bank balances while exploring safehouses, customizing loadouts, and choosing whether to pursue optional romantic side activities between the two lead characters.
