GTA 6: What We Know About Lucia, the First Female Protagonist in Grand Theft Auto History

After an endless amount of speculation and rumors, we now know for sure that GTA 6 is coming out in 2025 due to the first official trailer of the highly anticipated game. In just a few short days, the GTA 6 trailer has been watched by netizens from across the world more times than the first trailer for the previous game, GTA 5, in all its existence of 12 years. In other words, there’s absolutely no exaggeration to say that GTA 6 is indeed the most anticipated game in history.

One of the reasons why Grand Theft Auto fans wait for the launch of GTA 6 is that the upcoming game will be the first in the beloved series to have a woman as a protagonist. Until now, we had only guys as GTA protagonists, and GTA 5 was the first and only game of the series so far that introduced more than one protagonist. We had Trevor, Michael, and Franklin as the protagonists of the latest GTA game.

As for GTA 6, Lucia and her boyfriend are the game’s protagonists. We don’t know the guy’s name so far, but we can still speculate a lot about Lucia, who seems to be a Latin-American badass girl who’s always ready to settle the score the hard way.

Who is Lucia in GTA 6?

We can see Lucia in the GTA 6 trailer appearing as she meets with a parole officer. When she is asked why she thinks she’s there, the girl gives a very badass statement: “Bad luck, I guess.”

Lucia and her boyfriend often like to get into trouble, and they seem very devoted to one another. It’s clear that their relationship is also romantic, while their main hobby is running away from the police after they do some very bad deeds.

Lucia is clearly the first female protagonist in GTA history, and that can’t possibly upset anyone. She seems to have the right badass attitude to go for heavy crimes across the streets of Vice City (fictional Miami).

There’s no more to learn at this point about Lucia and the other protagonist of the long-awaited game. However, we can expect both of them to be Mexicans, judging by their skin tone.

GTA 6: a console-exclusive game?

At this point, we know that GTA 6 won’t be available for the PC at launch, but that could change in the future. The game will most probably work only for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X consoles, but it could follow suit in the case of GTA 5, the previous game, which was adapted for PC two years after its initial release for consoles.

The appearance of a female protagonist in GTA 6 has been heavily rumored and speculated until the official trailer of the game confirmed the hunch. It was nice to see that it’s indeed true, and a badass woman will be in the future game. Also, we’re happy to see that the rumors about a return to Vice City (fictional Miami) were also true, as GTA 6 will recreate the map of one of the most iconic video games ever made: GTA Vice City, which came out in 2002. Of course, the improved map will be much more diversified this time and adapted to the current gaming standards.

All we can do at this point is wait for Rockstar to tell us more about the identity of the GTA 6 protagonists, as there’s a lot more to learn.

The GTA 6 trailer was released sooner than expected because official footage leaks have already been published online. This led Rockstar to decide to show the trailer to the world, and so far, it has gathered an astronomical amount of more than 143 million views in just one week after its release.
