GTA 6 Overhauls Core Mechanics: Left-Stick Sprint, No Auto-Aim, and Car Trunks
Rockstar Games is modernizing Grand Theft Auto VI by replacing the series' long-standing tap-to-sprint control with a left-stick click, removing auto-aim in favor of manual targeting, and reintroducing a car trunk mechanic for quick outfit and weapon swaps. These changes, confirmed through early media previews and content creator leaks, aim to improve accessibility and gameplay depth ahead of the game's November 19, 2026, launch.
