• Setting: State of Leonida (Fictional Florida), including Vice City
• Expected Release (Consoles): 2026-05-26
• Online Mode: New iteration of GTA Online expected
• PC Release: Expected at a later date (Not at initial console launch)
• Platforms (Initial Launch): PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S
• Protagonists: Dual Protagonists: Lucia and Jason
• Unique Feature: Return to Vice City in a modern setting, first female playable protagonist in a modern GTA, dual protagonist narrative, next-generation RAGE engine capabilities.

• Perspective: First-Person
• Multiplayer: None (Single-Player Only)

• Platforms: PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One
• Unique Feature: Beast Master System (Taming & Commanding Animals), Prehistoric Setting & Weaponry, Fictional Primitive Languages, Village Building/Upgrading.

• Dual Protagonist Interaction: Lucia and Jason are partners. While players control one at a time (with likely switching mechanics), they will interact extensively, undertake missions together, and their relationship will be a core part of the narrative. This is not a companion in the traditional AI-controlled sense, but rather two intertwined playable characters.
  Human
• Mission-Specific Allies (Temporary): During certain missions or heists, Lucia and Jason will likely recruit or work alongside other AI-controlled characters with specific skills (e.g., hacker, gunman, driver), similar to heist crew members in GTA V. Their involvement would be scripted and temporary.
  Human

• Tameable Beasts (Owl): The Owl is Takkar's first and unique aerial companion. It can be sent out to scout areas, tag enemies and resources, perform dive bomb attacks on single targets (upgradable), and drop crafted bombs (sting, berserk, fire) once relevant skills are unlocked. Cannot be directly harmed in combat.
  Bird (Owl)
• Tameable Beasts (Land Predators & Mammals): Takkar can tame a wide variety of land animals after learning the skill from Tensay. Each beast has unique stats (strength, speed, stealth) and abilities: Wolves howl to reveal nearby enemies/resources; Jaguars are stealthy killers; Bears are powerful tanks that draw aggro; Badgers are resilient and can revive themselves; Sabretooths are fast mounts and fierce fighters. Players can direct their tamed beast to attack targets, stay, or follow. Beasts can be revived if downed, but if killed (after a revive window), they must be re-tamed (or a new one found). Legendary versions of some beasts offer enhanced abilities.
  Various (Wolf, Jaguar, Leopard, Sabretooth Tiger, Brown Bear, Cave Bear, Badger, Dhole, etc.)
• Rideable Beasts: Certain tamed beasts can be ridden by Takkar for faster traversal of Oros. Mammoths are slow but destructive; Sabretooth Tigers are very fast; Brown Bears offer a balance of speed and combat prowess while mounted. Riding beasts allows Takkar to attack with his own weapons from their back.
  Juvenile Mammoth, Sabretooth Tiger, Brown Bear (with skill unlock)

• Hidden Packages / Briefcases: Classic GTA collectible. Packages containing money, weapons, or lore, hidden throughout the vast map of Leonida.
• Unique Stunt Jumps: Designated ramps or locations for performing spectacular vehicle stunts, a staple in the GTA series.
• Lore-Building Items (e.g., Epsilon Tracts, Letters Scraps equivalent): Collectibles that piece together side stories, conspiracy theories, or provide background on the world and its inhabitants.
• Points of Interest / Landmarks: Discoverable locations, photo opportunities, or interactive landmarks that encourage exploration and may provide small rewards or achievements.

  Compact automatic weapons suitable for drive-by shootings and medium-range engagements. High rate of fire.
• Shotguns: Firearm (Close Quarters)
  Devastating at close range, including pump-action and automatic variants. Essential for room clearing and heavy encounters.
• Assault Rifles: Firearm (Versatile Automatic)
  The workhorse firearms for many combat scenarios, offering a balance of range, power, and rate of fire. Extensive customization expected.
• Sniper Rifles: Firearm (Long Range)
  For taking out targets from a distance. Different models with varying scopes and power.
• Heavy Weapons: Firearm (High Impact)
  Including LMGs, grenade launchers, and rocket launchers (RPG) for dealing with vehicles and heavily armored targets.
• Melee Weapons: Hand-to-Hand Combat
  A range of melee options from fists, knives, baseball bats, to more exotic choices, with potentially improved melee combat mechanics.
• Throwables: Explosive/Tactical
  Grenades, Molotov cocktails, sticky bombs, tear gas, and other throwable items for area denial, damage, or tactical advantage.

• Clubs (One-Handed & Two-Handed): Melee (Blunt)
  Basic to powerful melee weapons crafted from wood and stone. One-handed clubs are faster, while two-handed clubs deal more damage and can stun. Can be upgraded for increased damage and durability, and set on fire for extra damage over time and utility (burning foliage, scaring animals).
• Spears: Melee/Throwable (Piercing)
  Crafted from wood and sharpened stone/bone. Versatile for both melee combat (good reach) and as a powerful thrown projectile, especially effective against large beasts or armored foes. Can be upgraded for damage and durability.
• Bows (Standard Bow & Long Bow): Ranged (Piercing)
  Primitive bows crafted for ranged combat and hunting. The Long Bow offers better range and damage. Arrows can be standard, fire (igniting targets and environment), or (with upgrades) double arrows for increased damage. Essential for stealth.
• Slings: Ranged (Blunt/Distraction)
  Allows Takkar to throw stones with precision. Primarily used for distracting enemies, breaking weak objects, or headshots against unarmored foes. Less damaging than bows but useful for utility.
• Shards (Stone Shards, Berserk Shards): Throwable (Piercing/Effect)
  Sharpened pieces of stone used as throwing daggers for quick, silent kills on unarmored targets. Berserk Shards are coated with a substance that causes enemies to attack anyone nearby, including their allies, creating chaos.
• Bombs (Sting Bomb, Berserk Bomb, Fire Bomb): Throwable (Area of Effect/Utility)
  Crafted throwable explosives. Sting Bombs (Bee Bombs) release a swarm of angry bees that stun and damage enemies. Berserk Bombs have a wider area of effect for turning enemies against each other. Fire Bombs create a lasting area of fire, useful for area denial and igniting flammable objects or enemies.
• Traps: Utility/Area Denial
  Craftable traps that can be placed on the ground to ensnare or damage enemies and animals that step on them. Useful for defending locations or setting ambushes.

• Body Armor (Purchasable): Players will likely be able to purchase different levels of body armor (e.g., light, medium, heavy) to absorb damage from gunfire. This typically acts as a secondary health bar and is depleted before health.
• Clothing with Minor Protection (Speculative): Certain heavy clothing items (e.g., biker jackets, tactical vests as part of outfits) might offer very minor damage resistance or cosmetic armor appearance, though the primary protection comes from dedicated body armor pickups/purchases.

• Crafted Clothing & Gear Upgrades (Wenja Village): Takkar does not wear traditional 'armor.' Instead, progression involves crafting and upgrading clothing pieces (like winter clothes for cold resistance) and enhancing personal carrying capacity for weapons, ammo (shards, bombs), tools, and resources. These upgrades are primarily done by providing skins, wood, and stone to specialists in the Wenja village. While some crafted clothing might offer minor elemental resistance (e.g., cold), the main 'defense' comes from health upgrades via skills and food buffs.
• Skill-Based Resilience: Defensive capabilities are primarily improved through Takkar's skill tree, unlocking increased health, faster health regeneration, and resistance to certain types of damage (e.g., fire, melee).
• Food Buffs: Consuming specific crafted food recipes can provide temporary buffs to health, stamina, resistances, or other attributes, acting as a form of temporary 'armor' or enhancement.

• Extensive Wardrobe Options: Players will be able to customize Lucia's and Jason's appearance with a vast array of clothing items including tops, bottoms, outerwear, footwear, headwear, and accessories. Clothing stores will be present throughout Leonida.
• Style Categories: Likely to include various styles reflecting the Vice City/Florida setting: beachwear, casual wear, formal attire, street style, tactical gear for heists, and more.
• Hair & Tattoos: Barbershops and tattoo parlors are expected to return, allowing for detailed customization of hairstyles, facial hair (for Jason), and body art for both protagonists.
• Outfits for Activities/Missions: Specific outfits may be required for certain missions or provide minor gameplay benefits (e.g., a uniform for infiltration), or simply allow players to role-play different scenarios.

• Primitive Attire: Takkar's clothing is made from animal hides, furs, bones, and plant fibers, reflecting the Stone Age setting. As players upgrade specialists' huts in the Wenja village, they can craft improved versions of clothing, such as winter clothes that provide resistance to cold in the northern regions of Oros. While there isn't extensive cosmetic customization, the appearance of Takkar's gear evolves slightly with these upgrades. Some special outfits were available through the Apex Edition (e.g., paint based on animal spirits).

Takkar's progression involves earning skill points by gaining XP (from missions, hunting, exploration, capturing objectives). Skills are divided into categories like Survival, Hunting, Gathering, Fighting, Crafting, and Beast Master abilities. Key skills include taming different tiers of beasts, improving combat prowess with various primitive weapons, crafting more effective tools and consumables (health, buffs), and enhancing stealth capabilities. The Wenja village also serves as a progression hub; recruiting specialists (Sayla the Gatherer, Tensay the Shaman, Wogah the Crafter, Karoosh the Warrior, Jayma the Hunter, Dah the Udam, Roshani the Izila) and upgrading their huts unlocks new skills, crafting recipes, gear upgrades, and village population bonuses.

GTA VI is expected to feature Rockstar's largest and most detailed open world to date, encompassing the diverse state of Leonida. Confirmed regions include Vice City (a reimagined Miami), alongside other areas like Grassrivers (potentially an Everglades-like area), Leonida Keys (Florida Keys analogue), Port Gellhorn (industrial/port area), Ambrosia, and Mount Kalaga. The map will feature urban sprawls, beaches, swamps, and rural countryside, offering a wide range of environments.

Oros is a large and diverse open world featuring distinct biomes. These include temperate forests, marshy swamps, icy northern glaciers and caves, and volcanic southern regions. Each area presents unique environmental challenges, resources, and wildlife. The verticality of the terrain, with cliffs, caves, and high plateaus, encourages exploration. There are no traditional 'regions' to liberate in the same way as other Far Cry games, but rather areas dominated by Udam or Izila presence, with outposts and bonfires to capture.

• Cars (Sedans, Sports Cars, Muscle Cars, SUVs, Trucks, etc.): Land Vehicle (Wheeled)
  A vast array of civilian, commercial, and high-performance cars with extensive customization options for performance and aesthetics. Improved driving physics and vehicle deformation expected.

  Various types of motorcycles offering agile transportation and unique handling characteristics. Customizable.
• Aircraft (Planes, Helicopters, Jets): Air Vehicle
  A selection of fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters for aerial travel, combat, and activities. May include private jets, seaplanes (given the Florida-like setting), and attack choppers.
• Boats (Speedboats, Yachts, Fishing Boats, Personal Watercraft): Water Vehicle
  Diverse watercraft suitable for navigating Leonida's extensive waterways, including Vice City's coastline, rivers, swamps (Grassrivers), and the Leonida Keys. Expect improved water physics.
• Commercial & Utility Vehicles: Land Vehicle (Specialized)
  Trucks, vans, buses, taxis, emergency service vehicles (police, fire, ambulance), and other specialized vehicles that populate the world and can be commandeered by the player.
• Recreational Vehicles: Land/Water Vehicle
  Likely to include vehicles for leisure activities such as ATVs, off-road buggies, bicycles, and potentially items like jet skis.

• Rideable Tamed Beasts: Living Mount / Prehistoric 'Vehicle'
  Far Cry Primal does not feature traditional mechanical vehicles. Instead, Takkar can ride certain tamed beasts for faster traversal and combat advantages. These include: Juvenile Mammoths (slow but powerful, can scatter enemies), Sabretooth Tigers (very fast and agile, good for quick travel and attacking from), and Brown Bears (balanced speed and combat utility, can be ridden after a skill unlock). Riding allows Takkar to use his own ranged weapons from the beast's back.
• Fast Travel (Outposts & Bonfires): Map Traversal Mechanic
  Once Takkar liberates enemy outposts and bonfires, they become Wenja controlled and serve as fast travel points, allowing for quick movement across the large land of Oros without manually traversing the entire distance.

• Roshani: Ally (Izila Defector)
  An Izila craftsman captured by Takkar. He possesses knowledge of Izila fire technology and agriculture. Can be recruited to the Wenja village to provide access to fire-resistant upgrades and fire bombs.

• Dual Protagonist Story Campaign
  A series of narrative-driven missions following Lucia and Jason's journey through the criminal underworld of Leonida. Objectives will likely involve heists, robberies, dealing with rival factions, evading law enforcement, and unfolding a central conspiracy or personal vendetta. Missions may offer different approaches or be specific to one protagonist's skills.
• Heists (Major Robberies)
  Complex, multi-stage missions involving planning, crew recruitment (potentially), and execution of large-scale robberies targeting banks, armored transports, high-value locations, or other lucrative targets. These are a hallmark of the GTA series.
• Side Missions & Activities
  A wide variety of optional missions and activities scattered throughout Leonida, such as street races, managing criminal enterprises (speculative), helping eccentric characters, bounty hunting, and engaging in recreational activities (e.g., sports, mini-games).

Powered by a new version of the Rockstar Advanced Game Engine (RAGE), GTA VI aims for a new benchmark in visual fidelity for open-world games. Features expected include significantly improved graphics, realistic lighting, advanced weather systems, real-time water physics, more detailed character models and animations, increased NPC density and AI sophistication, and enhanced environmental detail and destructibility. Ray tracing support is highly anticipated on consoles and PC.

Powered by the Dunia Engine 2, Far Cry Primal presents a lush and visually striking depiction of the Mesolithic era. Oros is characterized by dense forests, misty swamps, icy northern wastes, and volcanic landscapes, all teeming with detailed prehistoric flora and fauna. Animal models are particularly well-crafted, showcasing realistic movement and behavior. The game features dynamic weather, a day-night cycle, and impressive lighting that enhances the primeval atmosphere.

A diverse range of licensed music across multiple radio stations, reflecting the cultural melting pot of Vice City/Leonida and contemporary sounds. Original score for missions and dynamic moments. High-fidelity sound design for vehicles, weapons, and environmental ambience, taking advantage of new engine capabilities.

The original score by Jason Graves heavily features primitive instrumentation, tribal drums, bone flutes, and guttural vocals, creating a unique and atmospheric soundscape fitting the Stone Age. The game features three fully developed fictional languages for the Wenja, Udam, and Izila tribes, created by linguists based on Proto-Indo-European roots. Sound design is crucial for gameplay, with distinct animal calls indicating presence and threat levels, and environmental sounds providing clues for hunting and survival.

Expected to be a refined version of GTA V's UI, with a modern aesthetic, intuitive weapon/item selection wheel, GPS navigation, and seamless integration of smartphone functionalities. Enhanced for current-gen consoles with potentially faster menu navigation.

The UI is designed to be immersive and relatively minimalistic to fit the prehistoric setting. Health is represented by a segmented bar. Weapon selection is via a radial menu. Important information is often conveyed through environmental cues, animal behavior, and Takkar's own senses (Hunter Vision). A simplified compass and objective markers guide the player. The game features a fully developed fictional Wenja language (with subtitles) spoken by characters, enhancing immersion.

Standard Ubisoft accessibility options are present, including customizable controls (key remapping, sensitivity), aim assist (though less relevant for melee-focused combat), adjustable difficulty levels, and extensive subtitle customization (size, background, speaker names). Hunter Vision helps highlight important objects, enemies, and tracks.
