The GTA 6 trailer is just a few days old, but Grand Theft Auto fans are already modding protagonist Lucia into other games.
Taking to popular modding website Nexus Mods to share their creations, fans are trying to trick themselves into thinking GTA 6 is out already by playing as Lucia in other games. While a couple of them make a lot of sense, like past Grand Theft Auto entries, another is a little bit more random.
Nexus Mods user huckpie uploaded their mod for Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2. “I couldn’t wait for GTA 6 to be released so here you go,” they said, alongside providing a funny little backstory. “Prior to her Bonnie and Clyde-esque escapades with her beau Jason, Lucia has been waiting ten years until Rockstar gets tired of milking GTA 5 dry by practicing the fine art of skateboarding.”

A little more on brand, Lucia was modded into both Grand Theft Auto 5 and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas by Nexus Mods user sergiovandykmods. While Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2 is perhaps the best looking version of Lucia, the gameplay of these two will obviously provide the closest experience to GTA 6 until it finally releases in 2025.
The GTA 6 trailer — which reintroduces fans to Rockstar’s take on Miami, Vice City — has already broken records, and dwarfed the likes of Cyberpunk 2077’s reveal trailer in terms of views. Lasting 90 seconds, the trailer featured a ton of intricate details (here are 99 things IGN spotted) and plenty of references to wild and wacky real life events too.
While the game was revealed alongside the 2025 release date for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and S, PC players were left frustrated, though not necessarily surprised, that their platform was left off the list.
They weren’t the ones a little peeved though, as several developers from Rockstar itself took to social media to express their frustration at the trailer leaking early. In fact, the entire industry shared their disappointment that the exciting moment was dampened. Several streamers were also hit with content strikes and takedowns in the wake of the leak.
