Key GTA 6 gameplay details 'revealed'

A content creator has 'revealed' new info about GTA 6 based on what they claim is insider information.

HipHopGamer recently posted a clip from an interview he did with Nic Hill from Brands In Play dated 6 July 2026. In the caption, HipHopGamer said he "attended a Netflix gaming event earlier this year" and seemingly shared some details about GTA 6 from that.

In the video, HipHopGamer said: "The gameplay in GTA 6 is completely different to every other Grand Theft Auto you've ever played.

"You still have that third-person shooter but the difference comes in the way it's going to feel because of the AI technology that surrounds the game, the world, the immersion and the things you're going to be able to do.

"For example, everybody knows you steal a car, get in and stuff like that - it's not just that anymore. Even the process of stealing a car, getting out and certain gameplay things you can do even when you're in the car is unbelievable.

"There are two main characters, wait until you see how that works in tandem, that's another big gameplay difference because it's not just about choosing characters, there are ways to do things together.

"GTA 6 wasn't just made for games, it was made for the film and TV market.

"The feel of GTA 6, the responsiveness and stuff like that, it's the type of game that even in action-adventure, someone like an esports pro would find a lot of love in it.

"When you see PS5 Pro enhanced, and the best place to play is PlayStation, you ain't never seen it like this."

None of this has been officially confirmed and is speculation at this time.
