Rockstar's Rob Nelson told Bloomberg's Jason Schreier that GTA 6 has hundreds of interiors to explore, gas stations included.
Rockstar has told Bloomberg that GTA 6 will have hundreds of interiors players can explore in Leonida. Rob Nelson said so to reporter Jason Schreier while sneaking into a gas station to rob it unseen. Rockstar has not given an exact number of interiors.
The quote comes from a Bloomberg newsletter by Jason Schreier, and outlets such as LaPS4 and NeoTeo have picked it up. This is Rockstar speaking in an interview, not a third-party claim.
How many interiors will GTA 6 have?
The official answer is "hundreds".
The official answer is "hundreds". According to the report, Nelson said there are plenty of interiors like the gas station and that players can go in and explore them. Rockstar has not said how many exactly, or which ones are open exploration and which are tied to missions.
More precise figures are floating around, but none come from Rockstar. A community estimate posted on Reddit points to roughly 300 buildings that might have an interior. Its author admits the map behind it is incomplete and does not cover the whole game. That is a fan count of buildings, not of interiors.

Why do GTA 6 interiors matter?
In GTA 5, most buildings were a facade and the explorable interiors could be counted on one hand.
In GTA 5, most buildings were a facade and the explorable interiors could be counted on one hand. Rockstar seems to want to change that in Leonida. If the number is anywhere near what Nelson suggests, the Leonida map offers many more places to walk into, hide in or hold up, not just streets to drive down.
Garbut's remarks point the same way: rooms with people doing things, not empty boxes. That is a statement of intent. Rockstar has not yet shown how it looks on screen beyond the demo given to Schreier.
A story closer to Red Dead Redemption 2
In the same interview, LaPS4 reports, Nelson said the story draws more from Red Dead Redemption 2 than from GTA 5.
In the same interview, LaPS4 reports, Nelson said the story draws more from Red Dead Redemption 2 than from GTA 5. His pitch is two characters who enjoy spending time together. That is about the tone of Jason and Lucia, not about gameplay.
