The Way You Steal Cars in GTA 6 Completely Changes the Game

Ever since the first game launched back in 1997, Grand Theft Auto’s titular crime has been a fairly simple process: tap one button and someone else’s car is now yours. Almost 30 years later, GTA 6 is set to change that completely, introducing a tiered vehicle security system, a varied set of tools to steal them with, and new ways to profit from each theft directly. Let’s look at the details of how it all works in Rockstar’s latest, as well as theorise about what it could all mean for other styles of robbery, including liquor store hold-ups and big bank heists.
