Unfortunately, we still don’t know too much about Grand Theft Auto 6. So far, almost all the information we have received has been through rumors and leaks, so there is still nothing official. Recently, a new (unconfirmed) leak revealed what could be some of the most striking new features of Rockstar’s game.
As shared by @GTAVI_Countdown, a user claims to have seen several hours of GTA 6 through a trial version. Thanks to this, he claims to have obtained numerous details about the gameplay.
The bad thing is that the source is not particularly reliable, since there is little information about it. Nevertheless, it seems interesting, as it reveals some aspects that would make quite a lot of sense. Or in other words, it fits in with what we know.
We’re not ready for everything Grand Theft Auto 6 will bring… if this leak is real
This does not mean that they are real, so I recommend that you take all this with a pinch of salt. That said, one of the big new features in GTA 6 would be the way NPCs behave when we open fire on a person.
According to the report, “shooting an NPC is so realistic that it will even make us feel bad, making it harder to do“. Similarly, he explains that the police will now interact more realistically with these types of crime scenes, being able to take photos and collect evidence.
Subsequently, the NPC would be transferred to the hospital or morgue depending on what happened. Similarly, NPCs react much more realistically when shot, being able to show pain and/or react in one way or another depending on where they were shot.
Another very important detail would be the way we relate to the world. In addition to offering a graphical section far superior to any other Grand Theft Auto, it would be the one that has made the most efforts to make it feel real: we can find garbage and debris in the street, storms are more real, if there is a very strong gust of wind an NPC could even lose his balance…
These are difficult things to imagine, but they make a lot of sense when you consider that Rockstar has always placed a lot of importance on how the world works beyond the basic mechanics.
@GTAVI_Countdown continues. The rather lengthy post also explains that roads would be destructible to some extent, that cleaning services could act based on what we do on the map, that there may be traffic jams after an accident, and so on. In short, Rockstar would want GTA 6 to feel like the real world.
Similarly, the physics would be more realistic: driving, shooting, material destruction… If it’s real, it would be crazy, really, but it doesn’t end there. Another detail that this user has revealed is that Lucia and Jason wield their weapons differently and that the stealth system has been improved.
In short, Grand Theft Auto 6 wants to set a before and after both within the saga and in the video game industry. Once again, remember that none of this is official, and that it is an unverified leak from a not so well-known source. Despite this, many of the claims it makes make a lot of sense, and we would love them to be true.
