EL DORADO HILLS, Calif. - s4story -- The next chapter in the High Rise crime film franchise is set to arrive February 24, 2027, with High Rise 6: Power to Escape premiering in El Dorado Hills, California, on the same day as its official release.

The sixth installment takes the series into a new era of organized crime as the once-powerful Vernicci Cartel faces its fall, leaving a dangerous power vacuum that two emerging criminal organizations are prepared to fill. One cartel is consolidating its influence across the East Coast, while another is establishing control throughout the West Coast. As both forces expand their reach, a deal unfolding in Dubai threatens to bring the two powers together, creating a criminal alliance with consequences far beyond either coast.

Meanwhile, federal authorities are growing increasingly unsettled as the shifting balance of power, competing interests, and new alliances begin to raise questions and ruffle feathers within the system. With the old order collapsing and new players making their moves, the struggle for control becomes more complicated, and the consequences increasingly difficult to contain.
