GTA 6 will overhaul how weapons are carried and how NPCs react to them in Vice City when it launches on 19 November 2026, with Rockstar North joint boss Rob Nelson explaining that openly displaying firearms will now draw far sharper reactions.
Previous Grand Theft Auto games, including GTA 5, allowed players to carry and switch between weapons without the same level of NPC response Rockstar is now building into GTA 6.
