Rockstar Games just shocked the gaming world by dropping an unexpected second trailer of Grand Theft Auto 6, while also announcing a significant release delay. The GTA 6 trailer 2 is already proving to be a viral sensation, accumulating more than 15,000 views and 41,000+ comments within just 15 minutes of its release.
What’s in GTA 6 Trailer 2?
The surprise second trailer, released without any prior announcement, gives fans another glimpse of Leonida. The trailer opens with protagonist Jason Duval visiting Lucia Caminos, suggesting that she’s being released from prison. Finally, we know that Jason and Lucia are officially going to be our Bonnie and Clyde in the game. The official description from the trailer said:
“Jason and Lucia have always known the deck is stacked against them. But when an easy score goes wrong, they find themselves on the darkest side of the sunniest place in America, in the middle of a conspiracy stretching across the state of Leonida — forced to rely on each other more than ever if they want to make it out alive.”
The trailer showcases more of Vice City’s vibrant atmosphere with glimpses of nightlife, beachfront properties, and the criminal underworld that players will navigate. We see shootouts, car chases, and hints of the partner dynamic between the two protagonists, with dialogue like, “You and me, Lu, we got this.” The trailer features The Pointer Sisters’ “Hot Together” as its soundtrack, perfectly capturing the Miami-inspired Vice City vibe.
