With the new Grand Theft Auto 5 trailer finally out, Rockstar has confirmed its new GTA will ditch the gritty, dark alleys of Liberty City, returning to the sunny beach-heavy locale of San Andreas' Los Santos.

Rockstar released the GTA V trailer Wednesday and though short, the video did reveal a few key-details about the game.

Chief among these was the game's location. The video confirmed GTA V will take place in the fictional Los Santos city.

Los Santos had originally appeared as a key area in GTA V's predecessor, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. The city is a fictional version of Los Angeles, housing its own versions of famous areas such as Hollywood -- or Vinewood as it's known in-game -- and Rodeo Drive.

Past the game's location Rockstar has offered little information about the game.

"Developed by series creator Rockstar North, Grand Theft Auto V heads to the city of Los Santos and surrounding hills, countryside and beaches in the largest and most ambitious game Rockstar has yet created.

"A bold new direction in open-world freedom, storytelling, mission-based gameplay and online multiplayer, Grand Theft Auto V focuses on the pursuit of the almighty dollar in a re-imagined, present day Southern California," read Rockstar's statement.

What this actually means in terms of gameplay changes and new features remains unclear. Rockstar is yet to give GTA V a firm release date.
