GTA VI pre-orders opened at midnight on June 25. Rockstar’s announcement sets out two things to buy into: the Ultimate Edition, with premium vehicles, weapons and apparel spread across the story, and the Vintage Vice City Pack, included with every pre-order. Rockstar posted images of each item, and TheSixthAxis went through the list the day before.
Almost all of those images show cars, guns, clothes and shops. One of them, the fourth image of the Squalo speedboat, shows the police chasing it.
A chase seen from above
The shot looks straight down on open water at night. The pink and white Squalo races through the middle of the frame. On its left, a police boat keeps pace, with two outboard motors and its crew at the console. On its right, a helicopter flies low with its side door open and an armed person in it.
The boat has a blue hull and a white deck. On the roof of its console, in blue, it reads VICE CITY POLICE, under a round seal lettered VICE CITY POLICE DEPT. Until now the only Vice City Police vehicle we had read was the Taurus-based sedan at the street stop in Trailer 2. So the city force runs boats too, and they look nothing like the gray Vicebeach Police boat in the May 2025 artwork.
Blue and gold in the air
The helicopter is cut by the edge of the frame, but its markings are bold. The upper body and tail are blue with gold stripes, a gold shield sits on the cabin, and gold letters begin VICE C. A registration starting N28 runs down the side. The lettering is not complete, so we read it as a likely Vice City Police aircraft, not a certain one.
Its small, round cabin and skids fit the MD 500 family. That makes it the second police helicopter shape we have filed, after the larger one, like a Eurocopter AS350, that the Vice-Dale Police fly in Trailer 2.
The Stanier name is back
The Vintage Vice City Pack brings no emergency vehicle, but it does bring a name. Its car is a 1955 Vapid Stanier, a two-tone classic, with Stanier written on its door. In GTA IV and GTA V, the Vapid Stanier was the Ford Crown Victoria lookalike that served as the default police car.
The name is confirmed for GTA VI, then, but on a 1955 car. Whether a modern Stanier patrols Leonida, as the Crown Victoria shapes in the trailers suggest, the pack does not say. The game comes out on November 19.
