GTA 6 Ends Tap-to-Run Sprint Mechanic

GameRant reported that Grand Theft Auto 6 features a quality-of-life change to the run mechanic compared with GTA 5, according to people who previewed the game. Eurogamer stated that the title no longer requires players to tap a face button to sprint at full speed. The site added that Rockstar has aligned the control with other modern games after 25 years of the prior system. Both accounts describe the update as confirmed in previews rather than by an official announcement from Rockstar.
