Grand Theft Auto 6 gameplay feature reveal

Overview

Rockstar Games has confirmed the inclusion of a new gameplay mechanic in Grand Theft Auto 6 inspired by a community meme from Grand Theft Auto 4. The feature, referred to as the ‘Scooter Brothers’ or ‘Scooter Bros’ app, allows players to summon vehicles to their location via in-game smartphones used by the protagonists, Jason and Lucia.

Reports from Edge magazine indicate that once the vehicle is delivered, the driver departs on a scooter, referencing a viral 2008 video. This mechanic represents the first time players can summon vehicles in a single-player mode without utilizing cheats. The service will involve an in-game fee. The announcement comes as marketing efforts increase ahead of the game’s scheduled release on November 19 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
