Another round ofGrand Theft Auto 6leaks has hit the internet, and they make some bold claims about the game’s features and mechanics. The wait forGrand Theft Auto 6has been filled with leaks and rumors, and while such claims should always be met with heavy skepticism, these features are compelling, if true.
This series of leaks comes from Twitter user GameRoll, the person who leaked the full names of Lucia and Jason before they were revealed. If GameRoll’s information is correct,GTA 6could have a limited weapon wheeland potentially over 700 stores for players to explore. Until Rockstar confirms such features, these claims are purely rumors, but one detail mentioned in the leaks could be signaling a callback toSan Andreas: weight mechanics.
According to Leaks, GTA 6 Could Mark the Return of San Andreas' Weight System
A Fresh Weight System Would Bring Roleplaying to New Heights
If true, the return ofSan Andreas' weight mechanics would be an exciting addition to a game that already seems to be packed with content and features.San Andreas' weight system makes it a unique entry in the franchise. This feature also proved to be quite popular in fellow Rockstar gameRed Dead Redemption 2, so it would make sense forGTA 6’s developers to bring it back.TheGTA 6leakscould give players higher expectations, but bringing back the weight system definitely isn’t outside the realm of possibility.
The map locations confirmed to be inGTA 6are Vice City, the Leonida Keys, the Grassrivers, Port Gellhorn, Ambrosia, and Mount Kalaga.
GTA 6’s Weight System Wouldn’t Have to Work Hard to Be Even Better
BetweenSan AndreasandRed Dead Redemption 2, Rockstar doesn’t exactly have to make any major improvements to the past weight systems. Just with the game’s improved graphics alone, recycling the old system with more realistic visuals would be enough to make in-game weight gain and loss feel fresh. There arehigh hopes forGTA 6to bring its realism to the next level, and a more in-depth weight system could do just that.
If Rockstar has built a more detailed version ofSan Andreas' weight mechanics, then it will be fascinating to see just how much of an improvement has been made. In the second trailer, it has already been teased that weightlifting could play a role in the game.Jason is seen lifting weights on the beach, and this might be hinting at the return of a weight system. The changesSan Andreas' weight mechanics make to CJ’s abilities added a special layer of depth to its gameplay, and withGTA 6teasing one of the franchise’s most in-depth games yet, there’s no telling what a fresh take on the system could be like.
GTA 6is slated to launch on June 26, 2025.
Other Features Claimed to Be in GTA 6
Only time will tell if these newGTA 6leaks are accurate, but they are indeed intriguing. There are a lot offeatures that would makeGTA 6a great experience, and weight mechanics would really be beneficial for players who truly appreciate realism.
While there is still a lot of mystery surroundingGTA 6, it’s at least certain that the game is set to be a massive launch. With a release date locked in,GTA 6is now less than a year away. It’s been a long journey, and as the year continues, it will be interesting to see if Rockstar confirms or debunks any of these rumored features.
