Over the years Gta 6 Fans have developed a number of theories about what the game will mean, the most popular is Project Americas, which first emerged in 2018. Quickly forward seven years and Gta 6 Theories are more rooted due to trailers, but sometimes they are still too popular for their own good. Administration of fans' expectations is always important, not if especially for this game, and the theory of fans that there is a third protagonist in Gta 6 He simply doesn't make sense.
This means that it is understandable as the theory. Gta 4 Had three protagonists (DLC counting) and Gta 5The basic game had three protagonists. Based on recent editions (Gta 5 and Red Dead 2), for one player DLC introduce the third Gta 6 The protagonist just doesn't happen. The truth is, Gta 6 These games will not be on the hook, because it is unfair, but looking at history is what is understandable as the theory.
From the America project to Leonida and Vice City
To understand the theory of three protagonists, we must return to the original leaks and theories. The Americas Leak project was created in 2018 from Inside Gaming/The Know, which claimed the first few details, including two possible cities – Vice City and South American city. Many fans have long believed that more feelings will be Gta 6Settings, so it's not really difficult to simply speculate this detail. Further details could be true, or at least true at one point. That dominated Gta 6 It has been called for years, as it twisted and developed, but it could have been some core of the truth. Axios' Stephen Totilo in 2022 announced that it had resources that they claim Gta 6 He planned to have three cities and four protagonists in development.
Some fans undoubtedly fallen into the number of cities and the number of protagonists, while the protagonists did not sound much attractive because of Gta 4'With DLC and Gta 5Protagonists. However, the detail that may have overlooked was that it was planned at the beginning of development. And in the production/development of the best laid mouse and men's plans often deteriorate. Development has prolonged longer, which means Gta 6The release date would probably not happen in the 20th century. Somewhere, perhaps, between this plan and the release is the fact that it was dialed back to focus on more feelings and its two protagonists: Jason and Lucia.
Not to mention that the history of the Rockstar Games crisis is known and reported. Conditions for Red Dead Redemption 2Development was far from ideal, with many developers working ridiculous levels of overtime to send it. Bloomberg's Jason Schreier, just before Totilo, announced that Rockstar cleans it, which is important for every developer in the studio. More than (but less important) are three key details of the game report: the number of protagonists is 2, the fact that it would be “slightly size” that expands over time, and its influence Bonnie and Clyde. Perhaps Rockstar will support it and expand it to approach its original extent over time, but on the basis of information in 2022, the expectations of this scope make no sense. Despite these reports, rumors of more protagonists persisted than Jason and Lucia, but their roots are in this report.
It sounds like Rockstar may want to do GTA 6 “Forever a game” like Fortnite and Roblox. However, as it will be widespread and if it is just GTA online, it remains to be seen.
The time of the event for 3 protagonist GTA 6 theory
-
Inside Gaming's Project Americas Rumor/Leak started in 2018.
-
In 2022 it was somewhat confirmed/extended by Stephen Totil, which allegedly demanded the planned range of GTA 6 was 3 cities and 4 protagonists.
-
At about the same time, however, Bloomberg's Jason Schreier reports that there will be only 2 protagonists.
-
Years of reputation and speculation, however, ensure that speculation about the number of cities and protagonists remained in the community.
The US project was somewhat strengthened by the leakage of pre-alpha GTA 6 in 2022, because there was a hint that it was a code name in files. This supported theory.
GTA's protagonist legends persist in 2025
If these messages, especially the reliable Bloomberg report, suggest that there are only 1 city and 2 protagonists to launch, the question happens: Why do these rumors persist? Well, that's marketing rockstar Gta 6that? Not that it really needs any pressure but Gta 6 So far he has released only 2 trailers. Everyone encouraged fans, by nature, to dig into them deep and sometimes see the official red Herrings Ias teasing. Of course, fans will do this, given how long the rumors and chatting persist with the one that destroys the teeth. By nature, Gta 6 Trailer 1 revealed only Lucie. It lined up with Bloomberg's news, which means fans thought Jason would be revealed in Gta 6 Trailer 2 .. was, though not directly named, and so fans have two protagonists.
With rumors and speculations about Gta 6 The trailer 3 Ramping UP (because of the upcoming earnings/pre -order TWO earnings) also has a theory. Some fans think we will see the protagonists 3 Gta 6 Trailer 3, which is not a bad marketing plan if there were actually three protagonists. But if we undressed history and focused on specific news, the big problem of this theory is that it completely undermines the story of the game. Gta 5 He had three protagonists, because that's what the game needed; Gta 4DLC has expanded the number of protagonists because it is what everyone needed. Jason and Lucia, Ergo Gta 6Do not need a third.
It's Lucia and Jason – not Lucia, Jason and Lenny
Every message around Gta 6 It indicates that there are two main characters: Jason and Lucia. Now it could be that Jason is a cop; This is a popular theory. But at the end of the day it is only they in the whole official marketing. There is no official indication of Rockstar that there is a third, switchable protagonist. But perhaps more important than everything is that the third protagonist is simply not what the game needs. Lucia and Jason are a couple, lovers who seem to be crimes similar to Bonnie and Clyde. Whether it ends in tragedy or not, it remains to be seen, but the possibility of this tragedy, the dynamics of both and the way in which the story connects them and develops around them, all depends on being a duo. Put a third into this dynamics and fundamentally changes the whole game and story. The third protagonist becomes the third round, regardless of whether they are a cop or someone who works with a duo. It is difficult to imagine that the third protagonist serves any main function if the strongest narration beats around Lucia and Jason's relationship (and crime).
Who thinks fans can be a GTA 6 #3 protagonist?
There are 3 popular protagonist theories No. 3 (which are also contradictory, as the trailers revealed Jason and Lucia).
However, Kai is easy to reject. Leak pre-alfa for Gta 6 He said that the playable model was named Kai, but no later than 2019 dated to 2019. This would be easy to cut or reworked or a surrogate symbol for time, as much of this escape is not equal to the quality of the quality Gta 6Trailers. It was early evasion of development and things are changing rapidly.
Raul Bautista is probably a fans of Rockstar bait for this theory, because it is depicted in a way that causes him to seem less like NPC and rather as the main player. This is true, but only because he is the main player in the story does not mean he is playable. He could be a friend, he could be a villain, or he could be a teammate. He still does not mean that he does not make him playable, but if someone forced me to consider me again, it would be Raul. It has the energy of the main character, but even if it is, inserting into Lucia and Jason's dynamics makes little sense. Now that Rockstar should return to its original plan of four protagonists (two couples), there may be a way to work. But the third injection in this dynamics still makes no sense.
Some fans also think that Raul Bautista is a protagonist of an epilogue similar Red Dead 1 and Red Dead 2;; However, it is worth noting that this has not occurred Gta 4 or GTA 5. Red Dead is more about the way of life and its cycle; Gta It has always been more about life with the consequences of crime. In this note, I just don't see that this is happening.
Raul's Promos also shows him himself, which led fans to the belief that he was independent of the rest of the characters and settings. This is possible from a certain perspective, but since the trailers have shown all more feelings and surrounding areas, it only makes sense to focus on key players. Similarly this is what supports COP theory in Gta 6But it could be narrative or film moments, a demonstration of the atmosphere and/or the key scene that does not need Lucia and Jason. If there is a cop, a more dramatic narrative is that it is Jason. The third cop who chases them is playable, can be a great story, but it's not the best story. It's not what the game needs.
GTA 6 does not need other protagonists
Theories are certainly fun, including this, but simple truth is Gta 6 He does not need other protagonists. The weight of his narration, the sharpness of his playing and the key rhythms that seem to evolve, especially under the influence of Bonnie and Clyde, means that it is virtually impossible.
