The story follows Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos after an easy score goes wrong and pulls them into a criminal conspiracy stretching across the state of Leonida. Rockstar says they are forced to rely on each other if they want to make it out alive. Modern-day Vice City is a major part of the setting, but Rockstar’s location material also presents the Leonida Keys, Grassrivers, Port Gellhorn, Ambrosia, and Mount Kalaga National Park. The official screenshots distinguish urban, coastal, wetland, industrial, and inland areas.
The playable lead or central cast includes Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos.

Rockstar’s trailers, cover art, and screenshots show Jason, Lucia, Vice City, the Leonida Keys, and Mount Kalaga locations. The cited media supports the confirmed characters, setting, and platform status. The media set includes the official video “Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer 2”.
Rockstar’s second official trailer focuses on Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos while showing Vice City, highways, waterways, nightlife, robberies, law-enforcement activity, vehicles, and other parts of Leonida. The footage supports the confirmed characters and setting without being used to invent unannounced mechanics or performance targets. This official image places Jason Duval in a sunlit Leonida setting beside a motorcycle. Rockstar’s character profile identifies Jason as one of the two central protagonists and describes his background around criminals, the Army, and drug runners in the Keys, giving the image a direct connection to his established story.
