GTA 6 Reveals Extensive Details on Its Open-World in New Game Informer Report

In the story, Rockstar shared new details about GTA 6's ambitious weather systems, the wildlife and NPCs that populate the world, and the scope of GTA 6's map, IGN reports. Fans were hoping to see Florida's most significant weather event replicated in GTA 6, but given how intense hurricanes are, many wondered if it was even technically feasible. Rockstar confirmed that GTA 6 features different shark species, jellyfish, whales, turtles, and rays in the game's sea.

ComicBook.com also reports that Prior to its arrival in November, a slew of new details on the open-world aspect of Grand Theft Auto 6 have now come about. As GTA 6 has continued to draw closer to its much-anticipated launch, Rockstar Games has shed more light on what the full version of the game will have in store. To that end, Rockstar confirmed that the map of GTA 6 will be twice as big as what was seen in GTA 6, which proves that this should be the studio’s largest game to date.

Polygon adds that Game Informer's big Grand Theft Auto 6 cover story is actually accessible now, and it's full of exciting new details for the year's biggest game. The fauna of GTA 6 can sport iridescence, bioluminescence, translucency, feather types, and fur that gets wet, becomes matted with dirt, and clumps together. Rockstar promises that GTA 6 fans can look forward to more severe weather patterns with a grander sense of scale, like tropical storms and seasonal hurricanes.

Game Informer notes that the Grand Theft Auto VI issue also features extensive previews for upcoming games, including The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Metroid Ravenous, State of Decay 3, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Songs of the Past, Kirby and the World Beyond, Stage Tour, Rhapsody in Scarlet, and many more.
