About This Information

We only include information from official Rockstar sources, the acknowledged 2022 leak, and credible leakers whose claims have been verified.

Story Mission Intel

These are the story sequences and missions we've pieced together from official trailers, the 2022 leak, and verified leaker reports. The story follows Lucia and Jason — a modern Bonnie and Clyde whose relationship drives the narrative through Vice City's criminal underworld.

ConfirmedLuciaLeonida Penitentiary

Lucia's Release from Leonida Penitentiary

The game opens with Lucia being released from Leonida Penitentiary after serving time for "fighting for her family." This isn't just a cutscene – it's your introduction to one of gaming's most anticipated protagonists. Jason picks her up on release day, and the two begin their journey through Vice City.

What We Know
  • 1Lucia is shown wearing an ankle monitor after release, which may restrict map access early in the game
  • 2She's seen doing community service in a high-visibility vest, suggesting parole requirements
  • 3The prison interrogation scene shows Lucia's calm demeanor – "Bad luck I guess" when asked why she's there
  • 4Jason and Lucia move into a small starter apartment together, described as "a good start" for them

SpeculatedJasonLeonida Keys

Jason's Introduction - Life in the Keys

While Lucia serves her sentence, Jason has been working for Brian Heder – a veteran drug smuggler in the Keys. The second trailer opens with Jason's daily life: collecting debts, running errands for Brian, and waiting for Lucia's release. This establishes Jason as an enforcer and debt collector before the main story kicks off.

What We Know
  • 1Jason stays rent-free at one of Brian's properties in exchange for muscle work
  • 2He's shown confronting a shopkeeper, likely collecting on debts
  • 3Works alongside Cal Hampton helping with Brian's smuggling operations
  • 4Credible leakers suggest separate intro missions for both protagonists

LeakedJason & LuciaPort Gellhorn

Hank's Waffles Diner Robbery

One of the most detailed mission glimpses we have comes from the 2022 leak. Jason and Lucia rob Hank's Waffles diner in Port Gellhorn. This isn't your typical GTA robbery – it showcases an entirely new system where you choose who to rob, manage witnesses, and deal with a realistic police response.

What We Know
  • 1Features a "dispatch timer" – police don't instantly appear but respond realistically
  • 2New "witness" mechanic tracks who sees you and what description they give police
  • 3You can choose which NPCs to rob, not just scripted targets
  • 4Police methodically surround the building rather than charging in mindlessly
  • 5The diner briefly appears in Trailer 2 through a parked SUV's windows

ConfirmedJason & LuciaVice City

Sinfrontera National Bank Heist

This is the big one we've seen in Trailer 2. Lucia and Jason, wearing skull masks, storm Sinfrontera National Bank. Lucia holds tellers at gunpoint while Jason controls hostages. It's a full-scale bank robbery that appears to go sideways – fitting with Rockstar's description that the story begins after "an easy score goes wrong."

What We Know
  • 1Lucia wields an SMG while wearing a skull mask and glasses
  • 2Jason is seen moving tellers while wearing matching disguise
  • 3Bank computers show "Emergency System Shutdown" during the robbery
  • 4Raul Bautista appears in the same scene on Rockstar's website, suggesting he's part of the crew
  • 5This may be the "easy score gone wrong" that kicks off the main plot

ConfirmedJason & LuciaVice City Streets

Fast Five-Style Vault Chase

At around 2 minutes into Trailer 2, we see a truck speeding through Vice City with what looks like a bank vault attached to it – directly inspired by the famous vault chase from Fast Five. This was actually leaked months before the trailer by YouTuber LegacyKillaHD, who claimed Rockstar had Fast & Furious-inspired missions planned.

What We Know
  • 1A truck drags a vault through city streets while being pursued
  • 2LegacyKillaHD leaked this scene in September 2024 – Trailer 2 proved him right
  • 3The leak was "confirmed" when the account reporting it received a DMCA from Take-Two
  • 4Suggests heists in GTA 6 will have more elaborate escape sequences

ConfirmedJason & LuciaGrassrivers (Everglades)

Everglades Helicopter Chase

At 2:18 in Trailer 2, we get one of the most visually stunning sequences – a helicopter chase through the Grassrivers swampland. The attention to detail is incredible: the helicopter's downdraft creates waves, blows plants around, and kicks up particles. A pickup truck with caged gators gets chased by police through the swamp.

What We Know
  • 1Helicopter downdraft affects the environment in unprecedented detail
  • 2Police chase through the swamp with someone clinging to a truck
  • 3Features airboats – a franchise first for GTA
  • 4Rockstar describes Grassrivers as having "far deadlier predators" than just gators

ConfirmedLuciaVice City Highway

Police Convoy Destruction

One of the most action-packed shots in Trailer 2 shows Lucia firing a grenade launcher out the back of a moving vehicle, obliterating three pursuing police cars in a massive explosion. Fans are convinced this is actual gameplay footage based on the camera positioning – it looks exactly like a "shoot while I drive" mission sequence without the HUD.

What We Know
  • 1Lucia fires a grenade launcher from a moving vehicle
  • 2Three police cars explode in a single shot
  • 3Camera angle suggests this is in-game footage, not a cutscene
  • 4Rockstar confirmed Trailer 2 contains both gameplay and cutscene footage

Lucia's Cage Fight

Lucia is seen competing in what appears to be an illegal steel cage fight. This suggests hand-to-hand combat will be a significant gameplay element – possibly with learnable fighting styles returning from GTA San Andreas. Her father taught her to fight from a young age, according to her official bio.

What We Know
  • 1Lucia fights in a steel cage, suggesting underground fighting circuits
  • 2May indicate returnable fighting mechanics from San Andreas
  • 3Her backstory mentions her father teaching her to fight
  • 4Could be a side activity or part of the main story

How Many Missions Will Be in GTA 6?

Rockstar hasn't officially confirmed the total mission count for GTA 6. However, based on the studio's track record and credible leaks, we can make some educated estimates.

Previous GTA Mission Counts

GTA V (2013)69 missions
GTA IV (2008)88 missions
GTA San Andreas (2004)100+ missions
Red Dead Redemption 2 (2018)104 missions

The September 2022 leak suggested that GTA 6's main story will be shorter than Red Dead Redemption 2, but will feature extensive side content. This aligns with Rockstar's recent approach of creating more focused narratives while expanding the open-world experience.

Given this information, GTA 6 likely falls somewhere between 60-80 main story missions. The dual-protagonist system with Jason and Lucia means some missions will be character-specific, while others will feature both working together — similar to how GTA V handled Michael, Franklin, and Trevor.

Our Estimate

Based on leaked information and Rockstar's history, expect around 70-85 story missions with potentially hundreds of hours of side activities, stranger encounters, and dynamic events throughout Leonida.

What fans are saying: The community generally expects GTA 6 to prioritize quality over quantity. Many players on forums like GTAForums and Reddit believe Rockstar will deliver fewer but more elaborate missions — each with multiple approaches, dynamic character switching, and cinematic set pieces that rival the best heists from GTA V.

We'll update this section when Rockstar provides official details about the game's mission structure.
