The trailer for the game might just stop the time when it’s released. Several leaks have surfaced on the internet regarding the game over the years including the characters, setting, weapons, and more, revealing a lot of things.

One of those leaks was the Police system in GTA 6 which is said to have been improved significantly than what was seen in GTA 5. While players await the trailer release, there are speculations on how the police AI and wanted system will improve in GTA 6, and here’s what we know about that so far.

How Will the Police System Improve in GTA 6

The major GTA 6 leak back in September 2022 revealed a lot more about the game than players were supposed to know. The leak revealed the early gameplay footage among other things and although a lot might have changed since then, it is still interesting to speculate. One of the major points of the discussion is the police AI and wanted system and how it might improve than in GTA 5.

Police in Grand Theft Auto games have improved game over game. GTA 5 had police officers acting aggressively toward players and engaging in combat such as gunfights and car chases. There are also helicopters seen in pursuit of players but it’s all going to improve in GTA 6. The police system will be much better with police officers’ changed behavior towards players as per the situation, surrounding the area, taking time to reach a crime scene, and more.

GTA 6 will have more chase sequences than gun fights.

Police officers in GTA 5 arrive just seconds after players commit a crime and it is a good thing but that doesn’t happen much in real life. GTA 6 will improve this, adding more realism as police officers will arrive a little later and players will have time to carry out robberies and will also have some time on their hands to escape. This increases the scope of freedom and results in more chase sequences than gun fights.

Grand Theft Auto games have some of the best chase sequences and players must respray their vehicles or get out of sight of police to escape from them. GTA 6 will feature better chase sequences as with the improved police system, police officers will remember the players’ vehicle model numbers and number plates. This will push players to change their vehicles and make the chases more thrilling, more than it is in GTA 5.

There are also rumors that there will be fully functioning CCTV cameras in the open world of GTA 6, surveying the streets and other places. This will result in the police getting alerts about a crime committed in front of the cameras and coming in to apprehend the players. There are also chances that Grand Theft Auto 6 will allow players to bypass this by hacking.

Police in the Grand Theft Auto series do not try to arrest the players, instead try shooting them, especially when they are on the two-star wanted level. This will be improving as police Al will be much smarter in GTA 6 than it ever was in previous Grand Theft Auto games.

Police officers' behavior will change according to the situation.

As per the rumors, police officers will not start shooting players straight away but will give them time to surrender before they start shooting. This will be a huge leap from what we have seen in the previous games.

Police officers are also said to have more detailed behavior in GTA 6 as per the situation as police officers will react more tactically than just barging in to shoot the guilty. According to the leaks, police officers will first surround the place in case of a murder, or surround the store that’s being robbed.

They will also allow players to surrender before they open fire, making the whole scene exciting. Although Rockstar Games has not confirmed any of this, it would be great to see these improvements in GTA 6.
