The studio revealed tons of new information regarding the game's characters, locations, and more, with over 70 new screenshots for players to check out too.

Whether they are on their first or umpteenth playthrough, there are some unspoken rules of what players should avoid doing in Grand Theft Auto 5.
GTA 6 Fans Have an Interesting Theory About Lucia
Grand Theft Auto 6 will introduce Jason and Lucia as two new characters to the world of GTA, but some fans are convinced that Lucia is actually related to Luis Lopez, a character from Grand Theft Auto 4 and protagonist of Grand Theft Auto 4: The Ballad of Gay Tony. Lucia's full backstory is currently unknown, but some believe she could be the daughter of Ernesto Lopez, Luis' brother. While Lucia and Ernesto do have different last names, some are speculating that Lucia is using her mother's name, as she may have cut ties with her father.
Rockstar Games has also confirmed that Lucia was originally from Liberty City, but moved away for an unknown reason. This solidifies the theory even further, as Ernesto, who has two unnamed children, was also in Liberty City but moved away to start a family. Plus, if that wasn't enough, Lucia was taught to fight by her father, and given Luis and Ernesto's background, that also lines up. Finally, to further fuel speculation, fans noticed that the alleged actress for Lucia, Manni L. Perez follows Mario D'Leon, the actor for Luis, on Instagram.
Of course, all of this remains merely speculation, but with so many wild Grand Theft Auto 6 theories floating around the internet, this seems like the most plausible one yet. Some fans speculate that Lucia is the daughter of Luis, but the character does not make any reference to having a daughter during Ballad of Gay Tony. Lucia's age is also unknown, which is a major factor in working out who her father could be.
Should the theory turn out to be true, it wouldn't be the first connection to a past title. Fans recently discovered a massive easter egg in the game's second trailer that connects Michael from GTA 5 to Grand Theft Auto 6. Eagle-eyed viewers noticed that Michael's movie, Meltdown, can be seen in the background of a new GIF for Grand Theft Auto 6, leading many to speculate on the character's connection to the upcoming title.
