How many missions are in GTA 6?

Has Rockstar given a number?

No. Rockstar hasn’t published a mission count or a mission list, and we haven’t seen one from Take-Two. Figures you may see online are guesses or leaked material, which we don’t use. Rockstar’s main page gives a one-line setup: an easy score goes wrong, and Jason and Lucia find themselves in a criminal conspiracy across Leonida.

Our missions section lists story beats, trailer scenes and outlet descriptions, which is not the same as a count. The easy score premise is the clearest thing Rockstar states about the story itself.

What does Rockstar say about jobs?

Two small details. Its Only in Leonida page says Brian Heder lets Jason stay in one of his properties without paying rent, as long as he helps with local shakedowns. The Ultimate Edition’s Classic Car Collection is described as a special commission from a collector and fixer named Wyman, to find and restore abandoned classic cars.

Neither tells us how many missions there are. Our jobs page keeps them separate from the trailer scenes.

What did Rob Nelson say about missions?

In IGN’s interview with the Rockstar North co-studio head, he said the Extended Look “showcases three pretty action-heavy missions” mixed with other activities. He added that one short sequence with a couple of robberies stands for much of what you’ll be doing between story missions. That points to a game where missions are only part of the time you spend, but gives no number.

IGN’s preview rundown reported that you will sometimes need to raise a set amount of money before main missions continue, and that missions aren’t limited to those marked by icons. Both are reported, and Rockstar hasn’t confirmed the details.

Nelson also told the French magazine TROISCOULEURS, in its original French interview, that the game is structured in chapters, and that a major mission can be the trigger that moves the story from one part of the game to the next. That is reported from an interview, in our translation, and he gave no chapter count.

Does the 80-hour figure tell us the count?

No. Pure Xbox reports that Nelson told the New York Times his own playthrough took 80 hours, covering the main story plus “optional goals with narrative ramifications.” We couldn’t open the original, so this is secondhand, and it is one person’s playthrough, not a mission total. Our length answer has more on it.

Our view: nobody can turn hours into a mission count. Mission length, side content and optional goals all change the sum.

What we don’t know yet

The total, how many chapters there are, how many missions are optional, and how many can be done by both leads or only one. Rockstar hasn’t said whether the number of endings varies. We would rather leave the number blank until Rockstar gives one.
