The evidence register separates official publication, direct Rockstar interviews, official-media observation, invited-preview reporting, unannounced details, and rumors. This prevents animation counts, interior myths, current-build FPS reports, relationship choices, and switching restrictions from being flattened into misleading yes-or-no claims.
Put this evidence in context
Two important boundary cases are NPC memory and console frame rates: a local reaction is not citywide persistence, and a current-build report is not a guaranteed launch lock.
GTA 6 NPCs & Pedestrian System · GTA 6 30 FPS vs 60 FPS: What Is Confirmed
Check the status of cheat-code claims
A circulating code list needs its own evidence. Keep an unannounced cheat system separate from a verified playable code.
600,000 does not mean 600,000 NPCs
The New York Times reports well over 600,000 animations across GTA 6. It is an overall animation count, not a pedestrian population count and not proof that every clip belongs only to NPCs.
Interior counts remain open
Rockstar has shown and described authored rooms, but it has not confirmed that every building is enterable or published a 700-plus enterable-building count.
30 FPS reporting is not a launch spec
An invited creator report describes current console demonstration builds at 30 FPS. Rockstar has not published final launch graphics modes, and a 60 FPS mode remains not announced rather than ruled out.
Relationship and switching claims
Jason and Lucia can emphasize romance or remain criminal partners. Character switching can be available, restricted, or forced depending on story and mission state.
Rumor is not a waiting room
Rumors stay isolated and are not used to fill database fields.
What this confirms. What it does not.
These checks apply to the claims below, not a blanket re-verification of every historical interview on this page.
