GTA VI Wiki2026-03-13~9 min

GTA VI introduces several revolutionary mechanics for the series.

Dual Protagonist

For the first time in GTA, you play as two characters: Lucia and Jason. Each has their own skills and playstyle. You can switch between them during missions.

Evolved Heist System

The heist system is much more developed than in GTA V. Planning, reconnaissance, crew recruitment, and execution — every step matters.

Improved Artificial Intelligence

NPCs react more realistically. Pedestrians have daily routines, police adapt their strategy based on your behavior.

Reputation System

Your actions influence your reputation in each region of Leonida, affecting interactions with gangs and factions.

Dynamic Economy

Goods prices and criminal opportunities fluctuate based on your actions in the world.
