The next Grand Theft Auto game has a second trailer coming almost a week after developer Rockstar announced it would be delaying GTA VI's release from later this year to May 2026.
The new trailer is almost three minutes long giving us a better glimpse of Vice City in the game and far more knowledge of the storyline to Rockstar's next big adventure. This second release gives us more backstory to the Bonnie and Clyde-like characters that were introduced in the first trailer.
Rockstar's new website for the game confirms the male protagonist's name is Jason, which has been previously leaked. He joins Lucia, who was named in the first trailer, and the two are romantically involved criminals who end up going on the run from the police. It wouldn't be a Grand Theft Auto game without criminal main characters.
A description of the story on Rockstar's website says, 'Jason and Lucia have always known the deck is stacked against them. But when an easy score goes wrong, they find themselves on the darkest side of the sunniest place in America, in the middle of a criminal conspiracy stretching across the state of Leonida — forced to rely on each other more than ever if they want to make it out alive.'
Although the game is set within Vice City, there are further areas where the two main characters will likely explore when they're on the run. There are at least five other locations including Ambrosia, Grassrivers, Leonida Keys, Mount Kalaga, and Port Gellhorn.
Other characters introduced in this new trailer include Boobie Ike, Brian Heder. Cal Hampton, Dre'Quan Priest, Raul Bautista, and Real Dimez.
2002's GTA Vice City was set in a 1980's version of Miami, and the previous trailer confirmed that the game would be making a return to the same place, but with a storyline set in the modern day.
Last week, developer Rockstar confirmed it would be delaying the release of GTA VI from its previous 2025 date to May 26, 2026. The game is set to be released on Sony PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. There's currently no word on a PC release for GTA VI, which if Rockstar follows its normal pattern will come at a later date.

'No Work Today': Diehard Nintendo Fans Line Up Early For Switch 2
PCMag editors select and review products independently. If you buy through affiliate links, we may earn commissions, which help support our testing. Lisa Jones has been a Nintendo fan since the company's first major console, the NES, launched in the 1980s. 'I've actually had every system, including the Virtual Boy,' she says. So, with Nintendo about to release its newest console, the Switch 2, Jones knew she had to own it on day one. 'I took the day off just to make sure I'd get one,' she told PCMag as she waited outside a Best Buy store, sitting on the concrete while occasionally stretching. Jones was among the diehard Nintendo fans who began lining up outside the store in San Francisco, hoping to snag the console on launch day. The Switch 2 becomes available to consumers at 12 a.m. EST / 9 p.m. PST. But not everyone managed to snag a preorder, prompting some to fall back on the tried-and-true method of lining up in person. 'Yeah, I'm cold,' said Doonie Love, an actor and model who was first in line at the store. He spoke to us with his black hoodie pulled over his head as the San Francisco wind blew by. Love began waiting at about 9 a.m. after failing to secure a preorder, which sold out quickly across retailers weeks ago. Although he's a Nintendo and Pokémon fan, he actually showed up to the Best Buy on a 'whim,' curious to see if people were lining up. 'There's no work today, I just needed something to do,' he said on deciding to wait in line. 'I just called someone to bring a jacket, chair, and burrito," he later added. Others like Brad Reinke were ready to line up. 'I took the day off. Yeah, I was totally prepared to play video games all day,' he told us while sitting in his foldable chair and eating a pasta takeout order from DoorDash. 'We're here all night so I've got to get lunch and dinner in me.' He too is a major Nintendo fan, and also bought the Switch 1 on launch day back in 2017. 'I'm a big collector and I'm probably going to buy everything they have on sale.' he said. While Reinke wasn't able to secure a preorder, he said he enjoys the experience of the 'midnight releases," which attracts other devoted fans. 'There's good company, everyone's here for the same reason, so we all have stuff to talk about,' he said. Meanwhile, another consumer named James Gualtieri was prepared to work remotely while waiting outside the Best Buy, carrying his laptop and a Wi-Fi hotspot. 'I was in a (remote) meeting for half an hour, chatting with folks,' he said. We visited the Best Buy at around 2 p.m. on Wednesday, where the line for customers without preorders was relatively small, at about 10 people. As a result, it looked like all the consumers had a strong chance of scoring the console on launch day. But Gualtieri told us Best Buy staff wouldn't commit to confirming if everyone in line would come away with the Switch 2 since the retailer also has to prioritize preorders. 'At the end of the day, it's not the end of the world if I don't get one,' he said after already waiting for two hours. Fortunately, Gualtieri's workplace is located next to the Best Buy store. 'If I can't get one, I'll try to get in line tomorrow morning. I would really love to get one before the weekend,' he said. Meanwhile, others like Jones said it was important to snag a Switch 2 soon, rather than wait, citing the risk of Trump's tariffs raising the price. 'Get it while you can,' she said, noting Microsoft recently increased the price for its Xbox consoles. Best Buy isn't the only location in San Francisco to offer the Switch 2 for tonight's release. Nintendo's official store in the city opened last month and is slated to sell the console as well. But the product will only be available to lucky consumers who were able to snag a preorder, or 'warp pass.' Hours before the sales were set to begin, the store held a prelaunch 'celebration' event, giving fans a chance to demo the Switch 2. The event attracted a long line of over 80 people when it began at 1 p.m. Several Nintendo fans also dressed up for the event, including a consumer named Annie, who cosplayed as the Zelda character, and said 'I came here from Mexico.' "When I was a child I play the Nintendo so much with my friends," Annie added, while also showing off a Zelda tattoo. Another consumer named Greg H. also looked forward to tonight's launch, having scored a warp pass to buy the Switch 2 from the official Nintendo store in San Francisco. 'There is this nostalgic factor of waiting up until midnight to pick up the console,' he said while standing at the prelaunch event with a Nintendo N64 bag. 'There's also a communal aspect, where you meet a lot of people with the same interest.'

Kylie Kelce Jokes She Has to Carry Around Two ChapSticks Because Daughter Benny Uses One as Her 'Wake Up'
Kylie Kelce is revealing the real reason she keeps two ChapSticks on her at all times — and it's because of her daughter Bennett The podcaster says her daughter uses it for her makeup – or rather, her "wake-up" Kylie shares her four kids with husband Jason KelceKylie Kelce is happy to make sacrifices for her kids — but she draws the line at sharing ChapStick. At the beginning of this week's episode of her podcast Not Gonna Lie with Kylie Kelce, the podcaster, 33, shared that she has to carry around two tubes of ChapSticks in her purse at all times because her daughter Bennett "Benny" uses it for her makeup — or rather, her "wake up." "Not gonna lie. I have two ChapSticks in my purse at any given time. One is mine, and the other one is Benny's 'wake up,'" Kelce says. "That's right. Her 'wake up.'" "And as soon as I use my ChapStick, I will immediately be prompted, 'I hab some?' It's an attempt to not have to share my ChapStick with those grimy, dirty little lips. Ew," she continues. "We've all seen the food crusted on your face, Benny. I don't wanna share my ChapStick with you." Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. Kylie shares her daughters Wyatt, 5, Elliotte, 4, Bennett, 2, and Finnley "Finn," whom she welcomed in March, with husband Jason Kelce. Elsewhere in the podcast, Kylie spoke with guest Bindi Irwin and shared that Jason's brother Travis Kelce is 'definitely king of the funcles." 'They just know that when he comes, he's gonna lock in,' Kylie told Bindi of her kids. 'He's gonna give them his undivided attention. They're gonna be like, can you get on the floor? And he's gonna be, like, already down there.' She added that she takes advantage of Travis' visits, using them to get in some basic self care. 'It is really nice to have someone who is fresh and fun,' she said. 'You got this. I'm gonna have a warm cup of coffee for five minutes and maybe have a shower because that would be nice.' Earlier this week, during an episode of his podcast New Heights with Travis, Jason spoke about how he'd just opened up the pool in his backyard for the summer. As Jason is speaking with Travis, one of his daughters interrupted him to ask if he's going in the pool that day. "Am I going in the pool today? Yes. I turned the heater on. The pool will not be cold," Jason said to his little one, turning to Travis and the microphone to say, "F------ bougie." "Well, that's what happens if you raise those suburban kids, Jason," Travis teased. "You're right. You're right. I told Kylie [Kelce] we should have raised them in West Philly, and she was like, 'There's no chance,' " Jason said. "Oh yeah. That's how you get cultured right there," Travis quipped.
