GTA 6marks a “new vision” for developerRockstar Gamesand the series at large.

Yesterday, December 4 sawGTA 6’s trailerdebut slightly ahead of schedule, thanks to a huge leak revealing the trailer in full. Rockstar just decided to go ahead and publish the entire thing then and there, revealing a return to the sun-soaked shores of Vice City in the state of Leonida.

“Grand Theft Auto 6 continues our efforts to push the limits of what’s possible in highly immersive, story-driven open-world experiences,” said Rockstar Games co-founder Sam Houser in astatementshortly after the trailer first went live yesterday (thanks,Game Developer).

“We’re thrilled to be able to share this new vision with players everywhere,” the co-founder concluded. We’re not quite sure what this “new vision” means for a series that’s been running for well over 20 years at this point, or a studio that’s been around for even longer, but we’ll take it as a positive sign for GTA 6 anyway.

GTA 6 fans have been comparing its locations to Vice City, and it looks like the Ocean View Hotel could be set to return in the new game, complete with its old car parked out front. It’s also worth notingGTA 6 isn’t confirmed for a PC launchright now, just like GTA 4 and GTA 5 before it.
