Wildlife

In its September 2026 cover coverage, Game Informer reported that Leonida has more than 170 animal species. It said several, not all, had never appeared in a Rockstar game, and described rare, discoverable and legendary animals. The earlier wording “170 new creatures” overstated the report.

Weather

Game Informer said Rockstar described localized storms, lingering wet surfaces, tropical storms and seasonal hurricanes. The report did not establish how frequently major storms happen or precisely how they affect missions and gameplay.

People and the final game

The cover story also discusses varied character appearances. These are developer descriptions and pre-release reports; the full systems and their behavior in the final game have not been independently tested here.
