The story

TWO OUTLAWS. ONE CONSPIRACY.

For the first time in the series, the story follows two protagonists — and you can switch between them.

Protagonist · 01

Jason Duval

Grew up around grifters and crooks in the Leonida Keys, did a stint in the Army to shake his troubled teens, then fell back in working for local drug runners. He wants an easy life — but things keep getting harder. Meeting Lucia could be the best or worst thing to ever happen to him.

Protagonist · 02

Lucia Caminos

Taught to fight by her father from a young age, landed in the Leonida Penitentiary fighting for her family. Fresh out — ankle monitor and all — and done letting the deck stay stacked against her. Sharp, fearless, and the spark of every score.

"Jason and Lucia have always known the deck is stacked against them. But when an easy score goes wrong, they find themselves on the darkest side of the sunniest place in America, in the middle of a conspiracy stretching across the state of Leonida — forced to rely on each other more than ever if they want to make it out alive."
— Official story synopsis, Rockstar Games

Watch

THE TRAILERS

The official reveals, embedded straight from Rockstar's channel. Hundreds of millions of views between them.

Trailer 1

December 2023. The world-first look: Vice City, Lucia, and the line that broke the internet — "the only way we're getting through this is by sticking together."

Trailer 2

May 2025. Captured on PS5. Jason's life in the Keys, Lucia walking out of Leonida Penitentiary, and the first real taste of their Bonnie-and-Clyde run.

An Extended Look — on August 27, 2026 Rockstar premiered roughly 27 minutes of new in-engine PS5 footage via Netflix, then on YouTube the same night: botched jobs, quiet domestic moments between Jason and Lucia, seamless mid-chase character switching, and a relationship system that shapes their bond. The most footage Rockstar has ever shown before launch.
