First Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer takes players back to Vice City

Watch Trailer 1: Tuesday, December 5 at 9AM ET

Rockstar Games finally dropped the first trailer for the next game in the Grand Theft Auto series, which is officially titled Grand Theft Auto VI. It’s set to launch in 2025 and it’ll take players back to Vice City.

The trailer, which clocks in at just over 90 seconds, begins with one of the main characters, Lucia, saying she’s in prison because of “bad luck.” We then get a look at Vice City, the surrounding areas players will be able to explore, and the people within it. The trailer clearly establishes that this is a city where people live in excess and like to party — and clearly, that sometimes teeters over into criminal activity. The trailer gets more intense as it goes on, as we see Lucia and her partner running from the cops and robbing a store.

It’s nice to finally have a clear look at GTA 6 in action after all these years of rumors and leaks. What we saw does line up with those rumors and looks even better than the leaks about the game that came out in September 2022. Rockstar still couldn’t escape major leaks with this reveal, though, as it posted the trailer early after it got leaked on X (formerly Twitter).

There’s plenty about GTA 6 that we don’t know, but Rockstar haslots of time to reveal it. The end of the trailer confirms that it’s coming out sometime in 2025, which means we’re less than two years out from the launch of the next Grand Theft Auto game. That’s bound to be one of, if not the, biggest video game release of all time, and I’m guessing this strong reveal will only amplify the hype further.

Trending Deal:

Grand Theft Auto VI will launch sometime in 2025.

GTA 5 cheats: codes and phone numbers PS4, PS5, Xbox, and PC
Trevor, Franklin, and Michael prepare to hunt someone in the forests outside of Los Santos.

Cheat codes have been a mainstay of the Grand Theft Auto series for years. From spawning a few vehicles to loading your gun with flaming bullets, cheat codes turn GTA 5 into a god game, where you can control the parameters of the sandbox you're playing in, so it's no surprise it's one of the bestselling games of all time. No matter what platform you're playing on, these GTA 5 cheats and secrets will work. But keep in mind: Cheats stop you from earning trophies and achievements while they're live, so keep them for playtime only.
How to use GTA 5 cheats
There are a few ways to enter GTA 5 cheat codes. The first and easiest is to use your cellphone. You can open your cellphone by pressing Up on the D-pad. From there, enter the corresponding number, and the cheat will fire. You can also classically input cheats by following a specific button combination. The combinations are the same across PlayStation and Xbox, but we've split them up to account for their different button-naming conventions, so it should feel more natural reading and entering them.

The best GTA characters of all-time
The protagonists of GTA V pose for the camera.

Ever since the GTA franchise became what it is today with Grand Theft Auto 3, Rockstar has packed their worlds full of colorful and rich characters. While we've only been able to control male characters up until now (though that is set to change if the GTA 6 rumors are true), they have all had distinct and interesting personalities and stories. That said, sometimes it's the side characters that can steal the show too. Looking back at the entire series, we've come up with our picks for the best GTA characters of all time.
Carl 'CJ' Johnson -- GTA: San Andreas

Good old Carl Johnson, better known as CJ, is way more than just a meme. San Andreas was the second game in the series to really focus on character in a major way, and the team nailed it with their lead. Not only was the entire cast filled with bonafide actors, but CJ's personal story as a gang member whose mother is murdered was far more nuanced and emotional than the media would lead you to believe. The real draw was the relationship CJ had with the main antagonist Officer Tenpenny (who may or may not be mentioned later on). This game set the standard for how Rockstar would reveal more about the characters and world through casual conversation throughout the story.

How to get the Eclipse 50-car garage in GTA Online
GTA Online two cars driving.

For years, players have been limited in how many cars they were able to store and showcase in their garages in GTA Online. After dozens of updates introduced a host of new properties, vehicles, weapons, and other features, Rockstar has finally given the players a larger garage to show off their collection. This new garage, the Eclipse Blvd 50-car garage, is a massive, five-story-tall garage that is, as you can guess, located on the pristine Eclipse Blvd. However, just having the cash and knowing where this swanky garage is isn't quite enough to actually purchase it. GTA Online has a host of ways to buy properties and items, so here's how you can become the proud owner of the Eclipse Blvd 50-car garage.
How to buy the Eclipse Blvd 50-car garage

Before getting into the actual process of purchasing the Eclipse Blvd 50-car garage, there's good news and bad news. The good news is that there are no requirements in terms of progression, level, or anything else of that sort that you need to meet before you have the option to buy it. The bad news, which is the case with all properties in GTA Online is that it is expensive. In this case, you will need to make sure you have a healthy bank account with at least $2,740,000 ready to drop. Once you've got the cash, here's how to buy your new garage.
