Gameplay and features
What official footage shows, what previews report and what is still unknown. 24 answers, checked on 14 Nov 2026.
How many wanted stars are there in GTA 6?
Six. The wanted meter in Rockstar’s Extended Look has six star slots, one more than GTA 5.
How does the wanted system work?
Previews describe police who only respond when a crime is seen or caught on a security system, and who can then recognise your face, clothes and vehicle. Changing clothes or swapping cars helps you lose them. Rockstar has not published the rules itself.
What side activities are in GTA 6?
Official footage shows scuba diving, base jumping, jet skis, canoes and races on a track in cars and on bikes. Outlets that broke the footage down also list basketball, gym workouts and fishing.
Do Jason and Lucia change with what they eat and do?
Previews say eating and exercise visibly change their bodies over time, in the spirit of GTA: San Andreas.
Can you carry every weapon at once?
Reports from the Extended Look say no. You carry a limited set of weapons instead of a whole arsenal.
What can you drive on water?
Official footage shows fanboats, jet skis and canoes or kayaks.
Can you swim and dive in GTA 6?

Do Jason and Lucia share money and weapons?
One preview says they share a single bank balance and arsenal. Rockstar has not confirmed the details.
Can your partner drive while you shoot?
Yes. Footage shows the player handing the wheel to the other character and firing at pursuers from the passenger seat.
Is there slow-motion aiming?
The Extended Look shows a focus meter that slows time during a shootout and highlights weak points on an enemy. Rockstar has not named or explained the system.
Are there safehouses in GTA 6?
Yes. The Ultimate Edition lists vehicles for Jason’s safehouse, and previews say safehouses have more to use inside than in earlier games.
Can you customise Jason and Lucia?
Yes. Rockstar lists outfits and hairstyles in the pre-order pack, and the Ultimate Edition adds a salon, a clothing store and a tattoo parlor.
Can you customise cars in GTA 6?
Yes. The Ultimate Edition adds two named mod shops, Rideout Customs and One-Eyed Willie’s, which means vehicle modification is in the game.
Are there random events in the open world?
Previews describe unplanned encounters that turn up while you travel around Leonida.
Can you talk to people on the street?
Previews say you can greet, taunt, provoke or calm down passers-by, building on the system in Red Dead Redemption 2.
Does food do anything in GTA 6?
Footage shows the characters taking food and drink from a fridge. Reports say these give short boosts.
Are there cheat codes in GTA 6?
None are confirmed. Rockstar has not published any and has not ruled them out. Every code list published before launch is made up or copied from GTA 5. We will list codes only after testing them in the game.

Not yet known. Rockstar has never carried a full set of codes from one main game to the next.
