Highlights

  • Grand Theft Auto 6 may delve into protagonist Lucia's home life like never before, offering players a chance to customize her living situation.
  • With a focus on criminal intrigue and weird encounters, players can expect Lucia's journey in GTA 6 to be full of surprises and unexpected twists.
  • Decorating Lucia's home in GTA 6 could be a fun and relaxing side activity, adding a cozy element to the game's mass of side content.

Grand Theft Auto 6 may have the perfect opportunity to expand on the protagonist's living situation over the course of the game. Among the few things that fans already know about Grand Theft Auto 6 is its protagonist, Lucia, so it's only natural for speculation to swirl around her. While the trailer already offered a few hints, there are several directions that the game itself can go. This is especially true for the side content running alongside the main story. In fact, Grand Theft Auto 6 can tackle the protagonist's home life unlike any previous game in the series.

Set to be the latest dive into Grand Theft Auto's wild world, Grand Theft Auto 6 is going to have a high bar to meet. Past games were full of criminal intrigue and general strangeness in equal measures. The protagonists could get engaged in a serious mission that pushes them deeper into the city's underworld, and then five minutes later, they'll find themselves running an errand for an eccentric stranger. If Grand Theft Auto 6 is in the vein of past games, then Lucia and her partner will have similarly strange encounters.

The protagonist dynamic of Grand Theft Auto 6 will be quite different to GTA 5, but the upcoming game can still reuse one great narrative element.

Grand Theft Auto 6 Could Give Players a Say In Lucia's Living Situation

Lucia May Start From the Bottom in GTA 6

One thing that fans know for sure after Grand Theft Auto 6's first trailer is that Lucia has been to jail, or will be going to jail at some point. The details of the exact circumstances are still unclear, but it's a definite part of her story. If Lucia was in prison prior to the story's start, then she may still be fresh out of prison once the player takes control. That would provide the player with a chance to build up her life from scratch. A good way to reflect this would be through her living situation over the course of the game.

GTA 6 Could Make Customizing Lucia's Home a Mechanic

Lucia could start the game in a small apartment, and GTA 6 could borrow from cozy games and give players the chance to decorate it. Over the course of the game, the player could have a chance to buy some decorations for Lucia's home in order to customize it to their liking. They could even earn some decorations through side content and story missions as mementos of her accomplishments. If the player can get Lucia a new house at some point, then they could bring their past decorations as well. While it would be a minor touch, it would add character to the game.

Jimmy's room in Rockstar's Bully would gradually gain decorations upon completing missions, creating a precedent for the mechanic.

Interior Decorating in GTA 6 Could Be a Fine Change of Pace

Decorating Lucia's home could be an amusing side attraction for players. The expectations for the side content in Grand Theft Auto 6 are high thanks to past games, but GTA 6 can offer something in a new vein. A decoration mechanic could be a slow-paced feature that could let players relax between missions. At the same time, it would be a good way for players to show off their creativity and personal style by customizing Lucia's home to their liking. While it may not be as action-packed as the rest of the game, it could be a good addition regardless.

Lucia's home could end up as a surprisingly compelling mechanic in Grand Theft Auto 6. Of course, most of the major impact will come from Grand Theft Auto 6's story, but the series thrives on its mass amount of side content. A decoration mechanic could not only give players something entirely different, it could tie in with other pieces of side content, such as giving her a bowling trophy for rolling a perfect game or other such rewards. Fixing up Lucia's house could be a hidden cozy aspect to GTA 6.
