GTA 6 activities: everything shown outside the missions
Between jobs the Extended Look plays like a list of things to do: a gym where the lift is a timing minigame, a basketball hoop under a stilt house, an airboat through the swamps, a base jump off a roof. Here is every activity the public has seen, with the frame it came from.
Seen, not listed
Rockstar has never published an activity list. Everything below was watched happening in a trailer, a screenshot or the 26 minute Extended Look, which means we can say it exists but almost never how it works: no rules, no payouts, no unlock conditions. Where a mechanic was actually demonstrated, like the bench press bound to timed button presses, it says so.
Sport and leisure
| Activity | Where it was shown |
|---|---|
| Gym | Lucia benches in a Bayside gym in the Extended Look, and the lift is bound to timed button presses rather than a menu. Previews tie build to food and training. |
| Basketball | A hoop under a stilt house on the water, in the Extended Look. |
| Mini golf | Cal Hampton's official artwork on the GTA VI website has him playing a course decorated with fake alligators. |
| Swimming and snorkelling | Swimming off a Leonida beach at sunset in the Extended Look. SVG describes the swamps as somewhere you can boat through and snorkel in. |
| Jet skis | Off Bayside in the Extended Look, and on the official cover art. |
| Kayaking | The Crest Kayak is a named Ultimate Edition vehicle parked at Jason's stilt house. |
| Fishing | Not demonstrated. The Shitzu Squalo, a sport fishing boat, is bundled with the Ultimate Edition and docked at Washington Beach. |
Racing and stunts
| Activity | Where it was shown |
|---|---|
| Circuit racing | A seafront circuit in the Extended Look, with a lap counter and a running clock on screen. |
| Street racing | A night race with checkpoint arrows and a progress readout, in the Extended Look. |
| Dirt bikes and off-road | Official Mount Kalaga screenshots have dirt bikes racing through mud with an ATV jumping behind them. One-Eyed Willie's is the named off-road mod shop. |
| Airboats | At 17:04 of the Extended Look, an airboat crosses green swamp water in the Grassrivers. |
| Base jumping | Standing on a rooftop edge above the bay, then free fall over the Vice City islands, in the Extended Look. |
Crime and city life
| Activity | Where it was shown |
|---|---|
| Store robberies | A convenience store job in the Extended Look, with the Food Mart owner coming out with a shotgun. |
| Shooting range | A timed run in the Extended Look, targets remaining and a clock on screen. |
| Nightclubs | A packed floor under purple light and a neon entrance with a crowd on the steps, in the Extended Look. |
| Livestreaming | A passenger streams a police chase, viewer counter and scrolling chat rendered over the screen. |
| Hunting | Not demonstrated, but the official Grassrivers screenshot has three people posing on an airboat with a dead alligator. |
| Haircuts, tattoos and clothes | Sara's Unisex Salon, Electric Fang Tattoo and Stock 305 are all named in the Ultimate Edition copy, and appearance feeds the wanted system. |
| Vehicle customisation | Rideout Customs in Vice City for paint and chrome, One-Eyed Willie's in Lake Leonida for off-road builds. |
| Wyman's car collection | Rockstar's copy describes a commission from Wyman to restore a collection of classic cars. |

What other lists add, and where it comes from
Lists elsewhere also carry dice, golf, courier work, van shipments, spearfishing and pool. Those come from a side-activity document that circulated on Reddit out of the leak, not from anything Rockstar showed. They may all be real. None of them has been seen.
What nobody knows yet
Not one activity here has published rules, rewards or unlock conditions. We do not know whether the gym changes stats or only looks, whether races pay out, whether fishing exists as a mechanic at all. Everything on this page is a thing that happens on screen, which is a much smaller claim than a system.
Timestamps refer to the Extended Look as Rockstar published it. Activities move onto their own database entries as soon as a mechanic is actually described.
Frequently asked questions
What can you do in GTA 6 outside missions?
From official material: gym work, basketball, mini golf, swimming and snorkelling, jet skis, kayaking, circuit and street racing, dirt bikes, airboats, base jumping, store robberies, a shooting range, nightclubs, livestreaming, plus salons, tattoo parlours, clothes shops and two mod shops.
Is there fishing in GTA 6?
Not shown. A sport fishing boat, the Shitzu Squalo, comes with the Ultimate Edition and is docked at Washington Beach, which points that way without demonstrating anything.
Can you go to the gym in GTA 6?
Yes. Lucia benches in a Bayside gym in the Extended Look, and the lift runs on timed button presses instead of a menu. Previews say Jason's build changes with food and training.
Are there races in GTA 6?
Three kinds have been shown: a seafront circuit with a lap counter, a night street race with checkpoint arrows, and dirt bikes through the mud at Mount Kalaga. No payouts or entry conditions have been published.
