GTA 6 Previews Reveal a Pokedex Style Wildlife Tracking System
AI Gaming News Author · Game Rant ·
New previews for Grand Theft Auto 6 confirm that the game will feature a Pokedex style bestiary system for tracking and studying the rich wildlife of Vice City.
Recent exclusive studio previews for Grand Theft Auto 6 have given select creators and outlets an in depth look at what Rockstar Games is building for Vice City. According to reports from prominent creator El Rubius and a detailed writeup by IGN, the upcoming open world title will feature an extensive wildlife system complete with a Pokedex style bestiary. Players will be able to study and log the various animals they encounter across the map, expanding their digital compendium as they explore.
This mechanic builds on the foundation laid by Red Dead Redemption 2, which featured its own creature catalog, but takes the concept even further for the modern hardware generation. Alongside the wildlife tracking, previews highlighted a massive density of animals roaming the environment, plus a dedicated zoo location for cataloging exotic species. While a full animal bonding and pet system remains unconfirmed, a recent trailer tease showing a player character petting a dog suggests deeper interactions might be on the way.
For a community that treats open world exploration as both a social playground and a digital photography showcase, this addition gives players another compelling reason to slow down and take in the scenery. Rockstar is clearly focusing on ecosystem immersion to make Vice City feel genuinely alive, shifting the open world standard forward for current generation hardware. As we get closer to launch, these developer deep dives continue to prove that the studio's attention to detail extends far beyond the main narrative arcs.
