GTA 6 review: everything we know about Lucia and Jason’s story

Hello, friends! GTA 6 is one of the most anticipated and discussed games online. Information is currently scarce, but new details occasionally appear on platforms and through hidden leaks. Special thanks go to the experts who share such information. This creates a heightened anticipation for the long-awaited game.

GTA 6 is being developed by developers at Rockstar North, who are planning a release date of November 19, 2026. The programmers themselves are located around the world, numbering approximately 10,000 people. The team is quite large and matches the scale of the project. developers are creating the game using the RAGE (Rockstar Advanced Game Engine), which makes extensive use of ray tracing.

What platforms will GTA 6 be available on?

It’s interesting that the game won’t be playable on a computer for a long time. Initially, they plan to make the game exclusive to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. A PC version will certainly be coming, but it’s expected in 2027-2028. The game is unavailable for purchase in Russia, as Rockstar closed its sales offices in 2022. It’s possible that you can play it using workarounds. The developers have also included a Russian language version with text translation.

GTA 6 Plot

The game features two main characters, Lucia Caminos and Jason Duval, a criminal gang and a romantic couple. Lucia Caminos, having served time in prison, is released and continues to pursue important affairs. Her criminal beginnings stemmed from protecting her family. She is quite influential, decisive, and hot-tempered. Lucia Caminos is of Latin American descent.

The second character, Jason Duval, is a former soldier who grew up in a criminal world. After serving in the army, he moved to Leonidas Keys and found work as a drug courier. He constantly dreams of a quiet and comfortable life, but finds himself in trouble with his girlfriend, Lucia Caminos.

Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos take a seemingly simple job offering the chance to make money. However, they accidentally become embroiled in a massive criminal conspiracy that encompasses the entire state of Leonidas. Throughout the game, the main characters will meet other characters who will also find themselves at the center of this criminal underworld. For example, Cal Hampton, Jason’s friend, Raul Bautista, a professional bank robber, and other characters.

The game world in GTA 6.

Let’s start with the most basic and impressive: the game world itself is 1.65 times larger than Los Santos from GTA V. So, there are plenty of places to go, hang out, or get into a fight. The crime scene takes place in the state of Leonidas. When developing the game world, the developers were inspired by Florida. The state’s capital, Vice City, is home to beach parties and tourist areas with clubs.

Gameplay in GTA 6.

Of all the existing GTA versions, GTA 6 is the only one where you can switch between two main characters. During the game, you can control Lucia Caminos and Jason Duval, and direct their actions during missions.

  • Local Police.

If a character breaks rules and laws, the police will hunt them. There are a total of 6 stars for violations. For example, if you hit a citizen with a wrench, the police chase will have 2 stars. The more serious the crime, the more stars the police chase will have.

The police will search for a character based on three characteristics: clothing, face, and car color. After a crime is created, an indicator will appear showing the police’s position and identification level. The character can change clothes, paint their car a different color, or even get into a different car, which may end the chase.

  • Car theft.

The developers decided to put some effort into refining the car theft experience. Previously, it was possible to freely open a locked car in a parking lot and steal it. In GTA 6, car theft has become more difficult. To steal a car, you must choose one of two actions: “Break Window” or “Clone Key.”

– If you choose “Break Window,” you risk encountering the police, as the noise will be loud and may attract attention. The car’s alarm may activate, attracting attention and causing problems. A pursuit meter will appear, indicating a pursuit from the police. The player has the chance to flee the scene in the stolen car, repaint it, and claim it as their own.

– If you choose “Clone Key,” there will be no consequences with the police unless the car’s alarm activates. This effectively unlocks your car and drives off in the desired direction.

– The third method of stealing a car is the old-fashioned way, if there’s a driver behind the wheel. A character can approach a stopped car and push the driver out. This will create problems with the police and pursuit. Players will have to flee the scene of the crime to a safe distance.

  • New vehicle mechanics.

For the first time in GTA 6, the developers decided to enhance the game’s realism. They introduced a fuel consumption feature while driving. This mechanic is quite interesting; now players will have to stop at a gas station and refuel their car. This will prevent long chases from happening, and the police will have a better chance of catching the offender.

  • Fuel consumption.

Players will have to pay attention to their car’s fuel consumption and plan long trips accordingly. The map in GTA 6 is very large; if something goes wrong, it will be a long trip back. Stealing cars from unsuspecting Vice City citizens may be unavoidable. In any case, the new mechanics only increase the game’s appeal and make it more realistic.

  • Car trunks.

Cars now have a trunk where you can store items and weapons. There are four storage slots available. You can store both regular items and weapons in the trunk. There are separate options for interacting with the trunk: “Storage” and “Equipment.” This is a powerful development, as it allows you to interact with the car more often.

– Fully destructible.

While driving and during police chases, cars can break down if they crash. Damage can be sustained by hitting curbs, ramming another car, or striking buildings or obstacles. After an accident, the bumper and other parts of the car are torn off. To repair the car, you’ll need to visit a workshop.

  • Character leveling.

Characters have stats that need to be leveled up. The higher the stats, the more powerful the character. Character leveling depends on training simulators and minigames. For example, at the very beginning of the game, Jason Duval has a basketball hoop near his house. He can pick up a ball and throw it into the hoop. Each hit counts as a point and improves the “Focus” stat. Other games are also available, including mini-golf, fishing, billiards, scuba diving, motocross, punching bag, gym workouts, and more.

  • Combat system and battles.

The character can pick up objects and use them in fights. For example, you can pick up a wrench and use it as a weapon. Slow-motion finishing moves are available during battles. Other items that can be used in battle include a knife and an electric baton. If the character begins to finish off an unconscious enemy, a devil icon will appear.

Conclusion on GTA 6.

Considering the number of GTA 6 developers (approximately 10,000 people) and the RAGE engine, the game will be very colorful and beautiful. For console players, the graphics quality will be impressive. Unfortunately, there is no precise information on PC system requirements. Therefore, it is difficult to say on which system the graphics in GTA 6 will be particularly beautiful.

New mechanics make the game more interesting and realistic. There are many clubs and hangouts where characters can spend their time. Another interesting fact is that the player will be able to control two characters instead of just one. Completing the game will require a lot of time, as the game is very large. These features can only be exciting for fans.
