Base Jumping
Jumping off buildings with a parachute is back. The Extended Look showed it briefly, and Vice lists parachuting among Leonida's pastimes.
Base jumping returns from GTA 5 and San Andreas. Shacknews describes the Extended Look on August 27 2026 showing a jump off a building with a parachute, Game Informer calls it a fun returning mechanic seen in brief footage, and Vice's roundup of the preview coverage lists parachuting among the activities players can enjoy. With a downtown Vice City skyline of towers and a rooftop bar in the story, the launch points are obvious.
GTA 5 turned parachute jumps into scored side missions with landing targets. Whether GTA 6 does the same, how parachutes are acquired, and whether skydiving from aircraft is separate from base jumps are unconfirmed.
