Water · Spotted Ultimate Edition materials, June 2026, and the Extended Look, August 27 2026
Kayaking
Jason and Lucia paddle kayaks through Leonida's waterways in the Extended Look. The Crest Kayak is also an Ultimate Edition bonus, which makes kayaking one of the few activities Rockstar has named in writing.
Kayaking shows up twice in the official record. Rockstar's Ultimate Edition materials from June 2026 include a Crest Kayak as a bonus item, and the Extended Look on August 27 2026 shows Jason and Lucia navigating waterways in kayaks during the side-activities montage, per Game Informer. Shacknews, Engadget and Vice all list kayaking among the confirmed activities.
The footage places kayaks in Leonida's waterside areas, which fits a map built around the Keys, the Grassrivers wetlands and the Vice City canals. Whether kayaks are rentable, found at docks, or only available through the Ultimate Edition bonus for Standard Edition players is unconfirmed, as is whether kayaking has any timed or race variant.
