Rockstar Games has followed up the GTA VI launch trailer with a fresh batch of official visuals: one new in-game screenshot and a set of key art starring the game's two leads.
Jason and Lucia: Lock and Load
The headline image is the artwork that doubles as the thumbnail for the launch trailer. Rockstar lists it on its website as "Jason and Lucia: Lock and Load," and it also appears on one of the game's many in-game vinyls.
The scene is pure Vice City. Lucia sits on the hood of a bullet-riddled red car, handgun in one hand and a magazine in the other, while Jason stands close by with a firearm of his own. Behind them, palm trees frame a tropical sunset, and a seaplane cuts across the sky.
Rockstar has published the art in logo and logoless versions, across a range of aspect ratios. That makes it easy to use as a wallpaper on phones, desktops or ultrawide monitors.
A seaplane over the Grassrivers
The new screenshot comes from Rockstar's recently launched music page. It shows a floatplane belonging to Brian Heder's business, Brian's Boat Works & Marina, flying low over the Grassrivers, the game's take on the Everglades, as the sun sets. The branding is visible on the side of the aircraft, and the golden-hour lighting shows off the water and the scattered tropical islands below.
The plane in the screenshot echoes the seaplane in the Lock and Load artwork, which suggests Rockstar is leaning into aviation and the wetlands as part of its marketing push.
Meet the composers
Rockstar's music page also credits the French electronic duo Justice as the composers of GTA VI's original dynamic score. Promotional art of the pair is part of this release.
What this means
The new images arrive on a big day for GTA VI news. The launch trailer is out, a claim has surfaced that review copies will go out very soon, and Rockstar has also detailed the game's sweat system. Leaked details about the ending have also been circulating, which adds to the pre-release buzz.
