'''Jason:''' Trust.

* CrapsaccharineWorld: The state of Leonida seems like a vibrant and fun place, with nightlife, clubs, and beautiful beaches in Vice City (itself also played straight in [[VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoViceCity previous]] [[VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoViceCityStories iterations]]), [[SceneryPorn beautiful natural vistas]] in the countryside, and madness everywhere. But make no mistake, as one can already witness in the trailer, Vice City's glamour exists alongside slums, poverty, street gangs, crime, and alligators.

* YoungerAndHipper: Unlike other ''GTA'' games, this one seems to be the first to distance itself somewhat from the typical organized crime stories and move towards a much more youthful atmosphere. The trailer does a very good job of portraying a lot of fun, social media, and two young protagonists who are most likely in their 20s.

* YoungerAndHipper: ''GTA VI'' has continued in the same direction as ''[[VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoV GTA V]]'', with the trailer doing a very good job of portraying a lot of fun, social media, and two young protagonists.

* BreakingOldTrends: Downplayed, probably. In a possible sign of the game bucking some trends within the franchise, Lucia is the first canonical protagonist in the 3D ''Grand Theft Auto'' games to be female. But make no mistake, the game trailer seems to suggest that the GTA series will continue to satirize the sociopolitical climate as it always has.

But make no mistake, the game trailer seems to suggest that the GTA series will continue to satirize the sociopolitical climate as it always has.

* BreakingOldTrends: In a possible sign of the game bucking several trends to the franchise, Lucia is the first canonical protagonist in the entire ''Grand Theft Auto'' franchise[[note]]Not counting ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoOnline'', which doesn't really count due to that game's CharacterCustomization, or ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoClassic'' whose female protagonists lack characterization or even much of an appearance beyond [[AllThereInTheManual a menu picture]] and were cut from the Platform/PlayStation port[[/note]] to be female.

* LighterAndSofter: [[Creator/RockstarGames Rockstar]] has certainly continued in the same colorful, satirical, and fun-filled direction that characterizes [[VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoViceCity Vice City since it was first explored]]. In complete contrast to [[VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoIV the first installment of the HD era]], ''GTA VI'' provides a bright atmosphere and a vibrant, lively, and fun-filled nightlife. One might expect it to be ''even LighterAndSofter'' than ''[[VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoV GTA V]]'', considering that here [[YoungerAndHipper you play as a duo of young protagonists]], in complete contrast to the [[HairTriggerTemper short-tempered]] bank robber in the midst of a midlife crisis (Michael) and the complete [[AxCrazy nutcase]] living in the desert (Trevor).

* HotterAndSexier: Thanks to improvements in graphic and character design, there are a lot more physically attractive male and female characters (especially near the beach) than in previous games.

* LighterAndSofter: ''GTA VI'' has continued in the same direction as ''[[VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoV GTA V]]'', with the trailer doing a very good job of portraying a lot of fun, social media, and two young protagonists.

* SpicyLatina: Lucia is practically the epitome of this trope, as one would expect from an incredibly {{badass}} but also very attractive Latina.

* BreakingOldTrends: In a possible sign of the game bucking several trends to the franchise, Lucia is the first canonical protagonist in the entire ''Grand Theft Auto'' franchise[[note]]Not counting ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoOnline'', which doesn't really count due to that game's CharacterCustomization, or ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoClassic'' whose female protagonists lack characterization or even much of an appearance beyond [[AllThereInTheManual a menu picture]] and were cut from the UsefulNotes/PlayStation port[[/note]] to be female.
