Bulking up isn't just a San Andreas memory anymore -- Rockstar has confirmed a body-altering fitness mechanic is returning for GTA 6.

Kotaku reports that Rockstar has officially confirmed Grand Theft Auto 6 will bring back a weight and muscle system reminiscent of San Andreas, the 2004 title famous for letting CJ bulk up, slim down, or let himself go depending on diet and exercise habits.

According to the outlet, players will once again be able to hit the gym in GTA 6 to build muscle tone, suggesting a physical fitness mechanic that visibly changes a character's appearance over time.

Details beyond the core confirmation remain limited in the excerpt, so it's unclear exactly how deep the system will run compared to San Andreas -- whether it will tie into stats like stamina or strength, or purely serve as a cosmetic option for players who want to customize their character's physique.

The nod to a fan-favorite mechanic from one of the series' most beloved entries is likely to fuel excitement among longtime players who remember grinding CJ's gains two decades ago. As with other confirmed features, more specifics will presumably surface as Rockstar continues to reveal more about GTA 6 ahead of launch.
