When Rockstar dropped the second GTA 6 trailer, it was impossible to miss the explosion of reactions online. Timelines were flooded with clips, theories, and those neon-soaked visuals. GTA 6's neon-soaked Leonida map and new characters promise the series' biggest leap yet, launching in India on May 26, 2026.(Rockstar Games) Suddenly, everyone's talking about the return to Vice City, high-speed chases, and a map that looks bigger and bolder than anything before. If you've been waiting for the next big leap in open-world gaming, here's a rundown of everything that's out in the open so far - release date, gameplay, map, price in India, and all the details that have fans counting down the days. GTA 6 story and gameplay GTA 6 is set to shake things up with a story that centers on two main characters, Jason and Lucia. According to Rockstar, these two have always felt like the odds are stacked against them. When a supposedly easy job goes sideways, they find themselves caught up in a criminal conspiracy that stretches across the state of Leonida - the centre of GTA 6. They're then forced to rely on each other and Jason and Lucia's journey promises high stakes, sharp twists, and the kind of character-driven drama the series is known for. Gameplay details are still under wraps, but the trailers have teased everything from wild car chases and daring heists to moments that are truly GTA. Expect the usual GTA mix of chaos and a world that feels alive with possibilities. The addition of two leads hints at a dynamic story, with missions that can be tackled from different perspectives and maybe even some surprises in how the narrative unfolds. Characters you'll meet Besides Jason and Lucia, GTA 6 introduces a fresh cast of characters. Names like Boobie Ike, Brian Heder, Cal Hampton, Dre'Quan Priest, Raul Bautista, and Real Dimez have popped up. Rockstar's knack for memorable side characters means there's plenty to look forward to, whether you're into street-level drama or high-level schemes. The map: Welcome to Leonida The new setting is the state of Leonida, which includes the iconic Vice City and stretches far beyond. Rockstar is promising the biggest, most immersive map in the series yet, with neon-lit streets, sun-soaked beaches, and a variety of neighbourhoods that each have their own vibe. If previous games are any indication, expect a playground packed with secrets, side missions, and the kind of detail that makes exploring every corner worthwhile. Release date and price in India Mark your calendar: GTA 6 is officially scheduled to launch on May 26, 2026. For players in India, the standard edition is expected to be priced around ₹5,999, while special editions could go up to ₹7,299 or more. These prices are in line with other major releases, but given the hype, don't be surprised if demand is sky high when pre-orders open. System requirements Rockstar hasn't revealed the official system requirements yet, but early leaks suggest you'll need some serious hardware to get the most out of GTA 6. Rumors point to a minimum of an Intel Core i7-8700K or AMD Ryzen 7 3700X processor, paired with an Nvidia GTX 1080 Ti or AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT graphics card. At least 8GB of RAM and 150GB of free storage space are also expected. These specs aren't final, but it's clear the game is aiming for a new level of visual fidelity and scale. The buzz around GTA 6 just keeps growing - the trailers have already set the internet on fire, with the promise of a massive new map, fresh characters, and next-gen visuals. Whether you're a longtime GTA player or just looking for the next big thing in gaming, GTA 6 is shaping up to be the release everyone's watching.
