Miami Officials Push Back Against Proposed GTA 6 Partnership

Tensions are rising in Florida. As the arrival of GTA 6 draws near, a proposed promotional partnership between Miami-Dade County and Rockstar Games is causing major friction among local leadership. Authorities refuse to lend their image to the highly anticipated title. A Miami-Dade commissioner spoke out against the initiative, arguing that partnering with the game glorifies violence targeting police officers and pedestrians. Meanwhile, the Miami-Dade Sheriff formally urged county leaders to scrap the marketing deal altogether. For local officials, endorsing a game focused on criminal activity in a world modeled directly after their own backyard is a line they will not cross. Whatever Rockstar does next, Florida leadership has sent a firm signal: Vice City won't be getting an official key to the county.
