Rockstar is well aware of its history and legacy, and that is why it often takes the opportunity to pay homage within its video games. And in GTA VI it will be no different, as already on the day of its release, the American company will pay tribute to the actor who played Tommy Vercetti in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.

On May 26, 2022, American actor Ray Liotta passed away unexpectedly at the age of 67, more than three years ago. Rockstar of course remembered the actor, who voiced and was hugely important in an unforgettable role as Tommy Vercetti in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, being the protagonist of the game released back in 2002 and having an impact on the community that is still not forgotten.

“Rest in Peace Ray Liotta, legendary actor and the iconic voice of Tommy Vercetti,” published the video game company itself when the actor’s death became public.

Now, with the release of its new Grand Theft Auto, Rockstar will pay tribute to Ray Liotta himself by releasing the video game to the public on the same day of his death four years later

May 26, 2026 is a day marked on the calendar for virtually all video game players, especially for fans of the saga, who are eagerly awaiting what is one of the most anticipated games in history, if not the most.
