GTA 6 keeps talking about him, and fans dissect the slightest image of the trailer to try to unravel the secrets. Precisely, some think they put their finger on a major detail.
Rockstar likes to sow clues. And fans of Grand Theft Auto know this well: each image, each panel, each license plate in a trailer can hide a key element of the plot. The second video of GTA 6freshly revealed, does not escape the rule. If Vice City remains at the heart of this new adventure, several intriguing details suggest that Liberty City could also be part of the trip. But should we believe it? Here’s what we know and what we can imagine.
A return to the north for GTA 6?
Liberty City, the GTAESque version of New York, is well known to fans. Main city of GTA 4she was reappeared by touches in different episodes of the series. In San Andreasit even hosted an isolated mission. Today, several indices slipped into GTA 6 relaunch the machine to theories.
In the latest trailer, you can see in particular a marked Liberty City license plate, and a character sporting a Liberty City Cycles cap. So many winks? Maybe. But some fans go further: they think that Lucia, one of the two protagonists of GTA 6, would come from this city in the North. A plausible theory, reinforced by narrative elements mentioned in the video.
References … or a real game segment?
Obviously, it is quite possible that Rockstar simply plays with the nostalgia of the players in GTA 6. References to Liberty City could only be decorative. However, the idea of a game segment in this city is not so crazy. Rockstar has already shown that he could integrate several places in the same episode, even if it means separating them by cutscenes or scriptwriting transitions.
A prologue in Liberty City within GTA 6? A flashback mission? An upcoming DLC? All hypotheses are open. And the geographic distance between Vice City (Florida) and Liberty City (New York) is not an obstacle, as long as it is justified in the game. In San Andreas, a flight by plane was enough to make the link between two very distant cards.
The most realistic idea, according to some observers, would be an integration of Liberty City into post-launch content. Rockstar could use Vice City airport as a starting point to other cities to come. A strategy that would transform GTA 6 into a real scalable platform, capable of accommodating several cards over the years. A vision consistent with the future of GTA Online and Rockstar’s desire to extend the lifespan of its flagship titles.
