Is there an official GTA 6 weapons list?
No. As of October 17, 2026, Rockstar Games has not published a full weapon list for the game, and it has not described a weapon wheel, a gun shop or a customization menu. What is on record is a handful of named guns from the edition announcement and a set of combat details from preview interviews.
Some lists elsewhere are built from trailer frames and screenshots. A few of those guns may well be in the game. None of them is a Rockstar list, and leaked footage is not evidence of anything. This page sticks to what a named source said, with the date we checked it.
Which GTA 6 guns has Rockstar named?
The only weapons named in official sale material so far come from the Ultimate Edition, announced on June 24, 2026. Game Informer reported that day that the edition includes the Hawk & Little Morgan revolvers and personalized variants of Jason's Girardi ES9 pistol and Lucia's Klose K17 pistol. Inven Global's report on the same announcement says the Morgan revolver is unlocked as you progress through the story chapters.
Shacknews, in its pre-order guide from the same day, added two more weapon-related items:
- The pre-order bonus pack includes a tropical weapon pattern for most guns, styled after Tommy Vercetti's palm tree shirt from Vice City.
- The Ultimate Edition includes a boat with an explosives-laden weapons crate.
That is the full set of named guns we could find in the edition announcement as those outlets reported it. If you want to compare what each edition adds, our Standard vs Ultimate Edition breakdown covers the rest, and the Vintage Vice City Pack article covers the pre-order bonus.
How do weapons work in GTA 6 combat?
Most of the detail comes from Rob Nelson of Rockstar North, speaking to IGN in an interview published on October 7, 2026. IGN's full text did not load for us, so the points below come from outlets that summarized it by name.
VICE listed these combat details from IGN's interview:
- Aiming at someone can be enough to make them run away without a shot fired.
- Shooting an enemy's arms or legs can incapacitate them.
- Hitting an enemy's weapon can knock it out of their hands.
- Certain kills can trigger effects similar to those in Red Dead Redemption 2.
- Some civilians carry weapons and can start trouble themselves.
- During a chase, you can shoot from the passenger seat while your partner drives.
Insider Gaming's write-up of the same interview adds that a disarmed enemy may flee to cover or look for another weapon on the ground, and that pedestrians might be carrying concealed guns of their own.
Inven Global quoted Nelson on the bigger shift. Of past GTA games, he said "You were the only one with an invisible arsenal hidden away." He then added: "This world in GTA 6 is not like that."
Do people react when you carry a gun in GTA 6?
Yes, according to Nelson. Dexerto reported on September 7, 2026 that he told content creator TGG that people now react to a gun in your hand, not only to a gun pointed at them. Dexerto quoted him: "In GTA 5, you can pull out a shotgun from nowhere in front of people, and they don't react. That doesn't work here."
He drew a line between carrying and holding. A long gun on your back should be fine, he said. A gun in your hand makes people uneasy, and they start moving away from you.
Outlets have also reported a limit on how many concealed handguns you can carry. That is their paraphrase, not a direct Nelson quote. We cover it, with the attribution, in our gameplay details from the previews and do not repeat it here. How police react to a visible weapon is part of the wider GTA 6 wanted system.
Where do you store GTA 6 weapons?
Two storage points are on record. VICE's summary of the IGN interview says you can keep extra outfits and weapons in your vehicle's trunk. Inven Global's account says the personal vehicle can be called at any time and holds every weapon you have bought.
Shacknews wrote on June 24 that the pre-order garage and the Ultimate Edition garage each feature a weapon locker. Our GTA 6 safehouse guide has the trunk and locker details in full.
The line about "every weapon you have bought" suggests guns are bought somewhere. Rockstar has not named a shop, shown one or described prices.
What about a weapon wheel, attachments and customization?
None of these is confirmed. Rockstar has said nothing about a weapon wheel, attachments, customization menus or a gun shop, and older games in the series do not tell us how GTA VI will handle them. The palm tree pattern in the pre-order pack is the only cosmetic weapon option we could source.
Is there a GTA 6 weapons cheat?
No GTA VI cheat of any kind has been announced. Rockstar has published nothing about cheats in the game, and VI Cheats has verified no GTA VI code. Our GTA 6 cheats status page is updated when that changes.
For context only, GTA V had a weapons-and-ammo cheat. PCGamesN lists it under the PC code TOOLUP, which gives a set of guns plus grenades, an RPG and a knife in GTA V. That is a GTA V code. There is no sign it does anything in GTA VI, and our explainer on whether GTA V codes work in GTA VI sets out why nobody can know until the game is out.
VI Cheats does not link to or endorse trainers or mod menus, and nothing of that kind can be tested against a game that is not out yet.
Is there a full GTA 6 weapons list yet?
No. Rockstar has not published one. The guns named in official edition material are the Hawk & Little Morgan revolvers, the Girardi ES9 pistol and the Klose K17 pistol.
Can you shoot weapons out of enemies' hands in GTA 6?
Yes, per Rob Nelson of Rockstar North, speaking to IGN. VICE's summary says hitting an enemy's weapon can knock it out of their hands, and shots to the arms or legs can incapacitate them.
Can you keep weapons in your car trunk in GTA 6?
Yes. VICE's summary of the IGN interview says your vehicle's trunk holds extra outfits and weapons, and Inven Global says the personal vehicle stores every weapon you have bought.
When does GTA 6 come out?
GTA VI is set for November 19, 2026, per Rockstar's Newswire. The announced platforms are PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.
