GTA 6 Gameplay: Every Confirmed Feature and System
Rockstar has confirmed (officially and through Trailer 2) a wide range of gameplay systems for Grand Theft Auto VI. Here is the full list of everything verified or strongly hinted so far.
Core gameplay loop
Dual-protagonist with on-the-fly character swaps. Heists, missions, side activities, and an expanded version of the GTA Online economy expected to launch post-release.
Combat and stealth
Stealth approaches confirmed, with improved enemy line-of-sight detection. Combat retains the cover-based shooting from GTA V, with a refined hit-reaction system and tighter aim assist tuning.
Movement and traversal
Swimming, diving, climbing, sliding, vehicle stunts. Parkour-style movement has been hinted in datamines. Airboats, motorcycles, jet skis, helicopters and planes all confirmed.
AI and pedestrian density
Rockstar promises 'the most complex pedestrian AI ever in a Rockstar game' — NPCs react to crowds, follow daily routines, and respond to player behavior in nuanced ways.
