GTA 6: $60 Vice City Candle?! Fans Are Burning With Curiosity!

Okay, gamers, hold onto your hats. While we’re all collectively refreshing the internet for any scrap of GTA 6 news, Rockstar Games has decided to… light things up? Yes, you read that right. Instead of, you know, releasing another trailer, they've announced a line of holiday-themed merchandise, including a rather pricey candle that promises to transport you straight to the sun-drenched streets of Vice City.

GTA 6: $60 Vice City Candle?! Fans Are Burning Wit...

This isn't your grandma's lavender-scented relaxation aid. Priced at a cool $60, the "Vice" candle is apparently an olfactory love letter to the iconic setting of both 2002's *Grand Theft Auto: Vice City* and, of course, the upcoming GTA 6. Rockstar partnered with Joya Studios to create this unique aroma, and the description is, shall we say, *extensive*. We're talking layers upon layers of scents.

According to Rockstar, the Vice candle boasts notes of lemon California, yerba mate, thyme, fig leaf, petitgrain, orange oil, and… terpenes. If you’re not a botanist (or a cannabis enthusiast), that’s probably enough to boggle the mind. But wait, there’s more! Prepare for an onslaught of tuberose, mimosa, jasmine petals, lily, lotus, cyclamen, wild grass, and raspberry blossom. And just when you thought your nose was fully booked, the candle finishes with Texas Cedarwood, galbanum, and smoked patchouli. Frankly, reading that list is more exhausting than trying to evade the cops in a stolen Cheetah.

But Vice isn't the only olfactory offering. Rockstar also unveiled a "Liberty" candle, housed in a frosted black glass. This one apparently captures the essence of Liberty City (read: New York) with notes of blood orange, black pepper, green cardamom, cedar, and clove leaves. It sounds a little less… florally overwhelming, I suppose. Both candles promise a burn time of around 65 hours, which, if you're feeling particularly cynical, works out to just under a dollar an hour. A dollar an hour to smell like a virtual city – is it worth it? That’s a question only you can answer.

The new line of merchandise is available on the Rockstar Games Store, so if you're looking for a unique gift for the GTA fanatic in your life (or just want to treat yourself), you know where to go. As for the game itself, remember to mark your calendars: Grand Theft Auto 6 is slated to launch on November 19, 2026, for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. Until then, I guess we can all just light a candle and dream of Leonida.
