GTA 6 Trailer
Who are the GTA 6 protagonists?
Grand Theft Auto VI has two playable protagonists: Jason and Lucia. Their partnership — a modern Bonnie-and-Clyde story — drives the game, set in the sun-soaked state of Leonida and its centerpiece, Vice City. Lucia, introduced in the reveal trailer, is the first female protagonist in a mainline Grand Theft Auto game, a genuine first for the series.
Rockstar has shown Jason and Lucia as a couple on the run from the law. Based on the trailer and Rockstar's previous games, players are expected to switch between the two as the story unfolds, building on the multi-character setup first seen in GTA V.
What platforms is GTA 6 on — and will it come to PC?
Grand Theft Auto VI is confirmed for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and Series S. Rockstar has not announced last-gen versions (PS4 or Xbox One). A PC version has not been confirmed for launch — and if history is any guide, PC players may have to wait: GTA V reached PC around 18 months after consoles, and Red Dead Redemption 2 followed roughly a year later. A GTA 6 PC release most likely arrives sometime after the console launch, but nothing is official yet.
On performance, Rockstar hasn't detailed frame-rate modes. Modern console games usually let you choose between a Quality mode (higher resolution, often 30 fps) and a Performance mode (targeting 60 fps). Higher-end hardware like the PS5 Pro could push sharper visuals and smoother frame rates than the base consoles. Treat any specific fps figures as speculation until Rockstar confirms them.
Will there be a GTA 6 Online?
Rockstar hasn't officially detailed a multiplayer mode for GTA 6, but a successor to GTA Online is widely expected. GTA Online kept Grand Theft Auto V alive and hugely profitable for over a decade, so a new online mode is considered all but certain.
As for timing, Rockstar has confirmed nothing. Rumors and industry reports suggest the online component could launch shortly after the single-player game rather than on day one — possibly within a month or two of release. Until Rockstar says otherwise, treat any GTA 6 Online details as unconfirmed.
