However, Take-Two Interactive did release a trailer stating the game would be available on the PS5 and XBOX SERIES X|S, with buzz surrounding the release for second trailer coinciding along this original theme.

Although it is true, the company rarely launches titles on PC first these days and PC availability sites months after console releases. This is because Rockstar has a complete history with console editions first, making them more available after numerous months (GTA 5 and Red Dead Revenge 2).

Due to an online leak, the first trailer of GTA 6 was pushed to December 5, 2023, which was earlier than the scheduled date.

↖ What do we know about the map?

GTA 6 will be set in the fictional city of Vice City, which is heavily inspired by Miami, Florida. With the tropical weather associated with Vice City, the city will also have sandy beaches, a bustling promenade, and an active nightlife.

Alongside Vice City, the trailers have shown other regions like Grassrivers, a swampy alligator and flamingo infested area. This region looks to be mimicking Florida's Everglades National Park. Also, two smaller towns outside Vice City will likely be included in the game's massive map expansion.
