Opens directly in Vice City — the camera moves through the city's streets during the day. Art deco hotels line an Ocean Drive-style boulevard. Luxury cars, street food vendors, tourists on bikes, and Vice City locals fill the sidewalks.
Extended footage of Jason and Lucia working together across multiple criminal scenarios. The couple dynamic is shown in both intimate scenes and high-action sequences — they argue, strategize, and execute criminal operations as a unit.
A tour through different Vice City districts — the glamorous beachfront, a grittier inland suburb, a port industrial district, and a wealthy gated community. The city reads as more stratified and detailed than any previous GTA setting.
Various criminal heist and mission scenarios — armored car robberies, police pursuits on highways and through Vice City streets, boat chases in coastal waters, and a large-scale heist on a commercial building.
Pulls back from Vice City to show more of the Leonida countryside — swampland airboat chases, rural highways, small-town Americana, and the Ambrosia County island chain visible across ocean water.
Night falls over Vice City — nightclubs, rooftop parties, neon-lit streets, and luxury yacht scenes. The satire of South Florida nightlife culture is front and center.
An extended highway chase sequence. Police response shown with tactical maneuvers, spike strips, and helicopter support. The wanted system appears significantly evolved from GTA V.
The trailer's final sequence builds to the release date announcement: "November 19, 2026." The closing title card confirms the platform targets. This trailer's 475M views in 24 hours made it the most-watched video in YouTube history.
