A new set of potential features suggests that GTA 6 could elevate realism in ways that go beyond just graphics.
One of the most prominent claims in the leak, posted on Reddit, focuses on the behavior of non-player characters (NPCs) and their interaction, according to a report by Digital Trends, which was reviewed by Mobi Alo.
NPCs are in-game characters that are not controlled by the player but rather by the game's own system.
Based on the systems introduced in Red Dead Redemption 2, the new leaks claim that the upcoming game will significantly expand interaction with NPCs, giving players basic interaction options such as greeting, insulting, flirting, and more.
Another notable potential feature is a custom text input system that allows players to write their own dialogue, which non-player characters (NPCs) can then respond to contextually.
These NPCs are said to have a memory of past experiences; mistreating a character could cause them to behave differently upon reunion. The leaker also describes a system that allows players to build relationships and develop bonds or rivalries naturally.
The leaks describe crime in GTA 6 as more complex and context-dependent than in previous games. Smaller targets like grocery stores are said to be easier to rob, resulting in slower police response times and lower returns. However, once high-value locations, such as luxury stores and jewelry shops, are targeted, the situation becomes much more complex.

These locations will be equipped with silent alarms and surveillance cameras that expedite police response times. Therefore, players will need to plan their actions rather than act impulsively.
Furthermore, GTA 6 will focus heavily on environmental realism, with areas like airports and supermarkets appearing bustling with people and a variety of simple interactions.
GTA 6 is expected to feature fully enterable interiors rather than just decorative elements, enhancing the realism of everyday spaces.
According to leaks, these spaces will be integrated into the gameplay, including practical applications that allow players to message non-player characters, manage contacts, and browse social media.
Phones will play a crucial role in communication, planning crimes, and dynamically interacting with the open world, according to the leaks.
