Grand Theft Auto VI is shaping up to be Rockstar's most ambitious story yet with high-octane heists, raw emotional moments, and, of course, gut-punch betrayals. With Lucia and Jason's criminal love story front and center, expect some serious knife-in-the-back moments before the credits roll.
Here are five potential betrayals that could completely flip the ending of GTA 6.
1. Jason Was a Rat All Along
Jason's quiet demeanor and military background? Kinda sus. There's already a whiff of dirty cops and federal interference in the trailer, and if Jason turns out to be an undercover agent planted to get close to Lucia, it would break her, and the players. Imagine riding shotgun with someone for 30+ hours, only to find out he was working you the whole time.
The Fallout
: A standoff in the Everglades. Gun drawn. One of them doesn't walk away.

2. Lucia Goes Full Solo Heist Mode
She's been to prison. She knows what betrayal tastes like. What if, after building this trust, planning scores, and sharing motel room secrets… Lucia decides she's had enough? Maybe Jason slows her down. Maybe the money's too good to split. A final heist turns into a cold, clean getaway for one.
The Fallout
: Jason watches the boat leave without him, bleeding out under a Florida sunset.
3. Brian Sets Them Up for a Clean Exit
Jason's boss Brian isn't just a smuggler; he's a survivor. And survivors cut deals. With pressure mounting from the feds, Brian could offer Lucia and Jason up as bait. A high-stakes drop-off turns into an ambush. And if you're paying attention, that woman in the helicopter? Maybe she's Brian's Plan B.
The Fallout
: Trust no one. Especially not the guy funding your weapons.
4. The Crew's Mole Was Right There
Remember that chill guy at the bar in the trailer? Yeah, he's not so chill.
Rockstar loves a slow-burn betrayal. Maybe this friend joined early on, cracked jokes, helped in missions, and was wired the whole time. Turns out he was flipping to the feds to reduce his own sentence. Brutal.
The Fallout
: Lucia and Jason realize every word was recorded. Every plan, compromised. No more running.

5. Only One Survives the Final Job
Bonnie and Clyde didn't ride into the sunset. Neither will these two. GTA has a soft spot for bittersweet endings—just look at RDR2 or GTA IV.
GTA 6 might push players to make the hardest choice: save Lucia or save Jason. Or worse, watch one sacrifice themselves.
The Fallout
: A single figure walking away from the chaos. Empty. Alone. Legendary.
In GTA 6, loyalty might just be another currency waiting to be cashed in. With a story that looks soaked in betrayal, love, and survival, don't expect a happy ending. Expect a twist that'll stick with you long after the credits roll. Which betrayal would break
