New leaks reveal how realistic GTA 6 could be. In particular, two systems are said to be much more detailed than in GTA 5.
What are these leaks? The first leak comes from a former employee at Rockstar Games. He worked on GTA 6 between 2020 and 2023 and noted this on his LinkedIn profile.
As one would do, he also wrote about what he was responsible for at Rockstar Games. In his case, it was leading the feature of “procedural generation of destructible glass for vehicles and objects.” Additionally, it was his task to design tools for filming in-game scenes that would later likely be seen in cutscenes.
His LinkedIn post reveals that in GTA 6, vehicles will calculate how the glass breaks. Instead of the entire windshield or side window shattering, likely only the part that gets shot at or otherwise destroyed will break. Another leak also reinforces the realistic image.

Tester speaks out
What is the other leak? A tester for GTA 6 has spoken out anonymously. In his post, he explains that he tested the audio events for the open-world game. According to him, GTA 6 should also be much better than its predecessor and feature countless different voice lines.
According to the leaker, NPCs should react much more detailed to the player and the environment. There should be extra voice lines depending on the game situation. He states that there are different voice lines in GTA 6 when it is night, when the NPC is injured, when something shocking happens, or when the NPC recognizes the player.
While this feature in GTA 5 was more oriented towards random interactions, in GTA 6, according to the leaker, it should match the mood of the situation and respond to the player’s behavior. This should go as far as the NPCs sounding more annoyed when it is raining or really hot.
What else did the leaker reveal? Another detail that the leaker mentioned concerns the missions. According to his statements, these should no longer simply fail, but offer negative outcomes as alternatives.
Instead of having to constantly chase the train again, here one could receive another method to complete one’s tasks, or someone could be harmed. Thus, the constant replaying of a mission could become unnecessary.
Realistically, it should also be after a shootout or other chaos. A location should not reset immediately after an event; according to the leaker, the game takes more time for that.
It was to be expected that Rockstar Games would take a more realistic direction with GTA 6 and pay more attention to details. However, the extent to which this could happen according to the leaks is still surprising. You can already memorize the map of GTA 6, but not everyone finds that suitable.
