GTA 6 Combat and Stealth: Action Evidence Matrix

At a glance

What combat and stealth evidence is actually visible?

Use this action matrix to see which gunplay, movement, melee and weapon-handling actions appear on screen—and which full systems remain unannounced. The Extended Look clearly demonstrates sustained third-person gunfights, cover, companion calls, passenger fire, close combat, weapon confiscation, and a timed shooting range. A job is described as needing to stay quiet, but the reviewed footage does not define or demonstrate a complete stealth model.

A timestamped reference for cover, companion calls, passenger fire, melee, weapon handling, scored shooting, and the absence of a defined stealth system.
