Hunting

Hunting has gone from likely to confirmed: Rockstar’s own description of Mount Kalaga calls the state park prime hunting country, alongside fishing and off-road trails. Official material leans into a living ecosystem too, with a screenshot showing a panther stalking deer through the undergrowth, suggesting predator and prey behavior rather than decorative wildlife.

Drawing on Red Dead Redemption 2, hunting could mean reading tracks, staying downwind, lining up a clean shot and then skinning or selling the catch. Cleaner kills would reward better, encouraging patience and the right weapon for each animal rather than spraying and praying.

GTA 5 added a small hunting side-activity for Trevor, and Red Dead Redemption 2 turned it into a centrepiece system. GTA 6 sits between those two reference points, with the wetlands giving Rockstar an obvious stage if it chooses to bring hunting back in depth.

Early leak reporting has pointed to a speargun among the weapons, fueling speculation about underwater hunting or spearfishing, and analysis of the leaked Leonida map lists hunting among the activities identified from points of interest across the state.
