Gameplay Features

The biggest, most immersive evolution of the series

Evolved Open-World Gameplay

GTA VI builds on the foundation of GTA V and expands it in every direction. The Extended Look revealed mission play, open-world activities, and systems shown in sequence as Jason and Lucia work their way up Vice City's criminal ladder.

All Extended Look footage was captured entirely from in-game footage on PlayStation 5 — native 1440p upscaled to 4K at 30 fps. The world feels alive, the city breathes, and the consequences of your actions ripple across the entire state of Leonida.
