GTA 6 leaks roundup: Release date, price, characters, new features, and more

The highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto 6, developed by Rockstar Games, is officially set to launch on May 26, 2026. This latest installment will initially be available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5 Pro, PS5 Slim, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S, with a PC version expected to follow later. Rockstar has confirmed that GTA 6 will feature a compelling Bonnie-and-Clyde-inspired narrative, centering on two protagonists: Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos. This marks a significant milestone for the franchise, as Lucia will be the first non-optional female lead in its history. The storyline unfolds in the fictional Vice City, a locale reminiscent of Miami, situated in the state of Leonida, inspired by Florida. Additional locations may also be included, such as Leonida Keys, Grasslands, Port Gelhorn, Ambrosia, and Mount Kalaga. According to various leaks, GTA 6 is poised to be the longest game in the series, potentially taking players up to 75 hours to complete. The game will also satirize aspects of 2020s American culture, particularly social media and influencer dynamics. The character roster includes Jason, who has a tumultuous background as a drifter and ex-army member, now entangled with local drug runners in the Leonida Keys. He is depicted as muscular, sporting a military-style haircut. In contrast, Lucia's backstory involves a fight for her family, which landed her in prison. Now out, she aims to make better choices and fulfill her dream of providing a better life for her mother, having also spent time in Liberty City, hinting at possible appearances in the game. Other confirmed characters include Cal Hampton, a friend of Jason who is obsessed with online conspiracies, and Boobie, a local legend who transitioned from street life to legitimate business ventures. Dre'quan is characterized as a hustler with aspirations in the music industry, while social media influencers Bae-Luxe and Roxy hope to revitalize their careers with their rap tracks. Raul, a bank robber seeking accomplices, and Brian, a drug runner involved in smuggling operations, round out the character list. While Take-Two Interactive, the parent company of Rockstar Games, has not disclosed pricing details, CEO Strauss Zelnick indicated a commitment to delivering value that exceeds the cost of the game. Analysts speculate the starting price for GTA 6 could be around $80, with some predictions suggesting it might reach $100. In India, leaks hint at a possible starting price of ₹5,999, although this information should be taken with caution for now.
