Grand Theft Auto VI is a proposed 2025 video game. It is going to be published by Rockstar Games and developed by Rockstar Studios. It will be the eighth main game in the Grand Theft Auto series.[1] The game is expected to be released in autumn of 2025.[2]
In July 2022, it was reported that the main characters of Grand Theft Auto VI would be both a man and a woman named Lucia, with their characters being influenced by criminal duo Bonnie and Clyde. It was also revealed that the game will take place in Vice City.[3]
On September 18, 2022, a leak was released and was later confirmed to be real by Rockstar.[4] In the leak, there were 90 videos posted which showed footage of the game in a work-in-progress state.[5] A 17-year-old from Oxfordshire who is believed to have posted the leak under the username "teapotuberhacker" was arrested on 22 September.[6] A judge would sentence him to an indefinite hospital order since he said that he would still do cybercrime if he was released.[7]
On December 4, 2023, Rockstar released an official trailer for the game and revealed that the release date was expected to be in 2025.[8]
In May 2024, Rockstar Games confirmed Grand Theft Auto VI would release by the autumn of 2025.[9]
