GTA 6 Wishlist: 5 classic features we hope to see return

Rockstar Games is expected to bring back several classic features in GTA 6. The Grand Theft Auto series has many elements that make each gameplay unique. However, the developer sometimes abandons these features in newer projects, such as Grand Theft Auto 5. This practice should not be continued in the upcoming installment.

In this article, we list five classic features that Rockstar Games should bring back in GTA 6.

5 classic features that GTA 6 should include in the gameplay

1) Robbing convenience stores

Robbing stores is a popular practice in the Grand Theft Auto series, and has been a feature since the beginning. Rockstar Games should consider bringing it back as a side activity in GTA 6.

The map is expected to be large, and we can assume there will be many enterable stores. We should be able to rob them for money and other collectibles.

2) Drug dealing

The drug dealing minigame is one of the reasons why fans enjoy playing GTA Chinatown Wars. While it was an underrated feature, its inclusion in Grand Theft Auto 5 Online made the gameplay popular again.

Considering the HD Universe Vice City could also likely have drug empires, Rockstar should allow Jason and Lucia to sell and buy drugs from street dealers. This timeless minigame will fit the Vice City setting perfectly.

3) House robberies

Adding house robbery missions in GTA 6 will not only add a new gameplay but also make the map internally explorable. Robbing random houses is something that was last experienced in Grand Theft Auto San Andreas.

GTA 6 should also have houses to rob across various areas on the map. Rockstar Games could hide some collectible items in random houses to make the exploration more intriguing.

4) Cheat codes

Rockstar Games should continue adding cheat codes in Grand Theft Auto 6. Cheats are a widely popular feature of the series and are associated with many players’ nostalgia. While the upcoming game is aimed to be as realistic as possible, having cheat codes won’t ruin this aspect.

Cheat codes have always been optional, and Rockstar alerts players about the impact of their use. Therefore, the upcoming gameplay should feature them. These are some suggestions for cheats:

Change the character model
Get the highest wanted level
Make pedestrians violent
Give Raygun to cops

5) Rampage missions

Rampage missions should also be a part of GTA 6. They are fun, as one can go reckless without the fear of attracting cops (most of the time). These missions are a safe space to unleash madness on NPCs.

Thus, Rockstar should add many Rampage missions across the map. Completing them all should also reward players with an achievement.
