GTA 6 Wanted System: Six Stars and What Police Know
The wanted level goes up to six stars, and police track what they know about you: your face, clothes, vehicle and weapons.
Six stars
The wanted level goes up to six stars.
What the police know
Icons under the stars show what the police have on you:
- Your face
- Your clothes
- Your vehicle
- Your weapons
Losing them
- Police do not show on the minimap, so you have to watch and listen for them.
- Driving out of the area is not always enough. You may need to change what they recognise, such as your clothes or your haircut.
Criminal Profile and karma
Crimes you commit while roaming build up a Criminal Profile. There is also a karma value that moves with what you do: the presentation showed it changing for petting a dog and for robbing a store.
This comes from Rockstar’s August 2026 gameplay presentation. Exact numbers and rules will be added once the game is out.
