Smoke Grenade – GTA 6 Weapon

Smoke Grenade in GTA 6: Tactical Thrown Weapon

The Smoke Grenade returns in Grand Theft Auto VI as part of the Thrown Weapons class. A recurring item in the GTA series, it was previously featured in GTA V, GTA San Andreas, and GTA Vice City. In GTA 6, the smoke grenade continues to serve as a powerful tactical tool for stealth, evasion, and misdirection.

Use in GTA 6

• On detonation, the smoke grenade releases a dense cloud of smoke that obscures vision.
• It is effective for escaping police, creating cover in shootouts, or disorienting enemies in close combat.
• The grenade can be carried in quantities of up to 25, with extended ammo allowing 30.
• While it cannot be modified, its utility makes it an essential piece of equipment for stealth-based missions and chaotic urban encounters.

Behavior and Role

• Designed after the real-life M18 Smoke Grenade, it emphasizes tactical gameplay rather than raw damage.
• The smoke cloud can be used to break line of sight, giving players room to reposition or retreat.
• As part of GTA 6’s expanded combat system, smoke grenades highlight strategic play, complementing more lethal thrown weapons like fragmentation grenades or Molotovs.
