Deathmatching in GTA 6: A Beginner's Guide (for Slightly Unhinged Individuals)
So, you've finally snagged that elusive copy of Grand Theft Auto 6. Congratulations! You've just inherited a sprawling sandbox of mayhem, filled with more chrome wheels and questionable life choices than a Backstreet Boys reunion. But enough sightseeing, your trigger finger's getting twitchy, and let's face it, you didn't buy this game for a virtual yoga retreat. You're here for the glorious, chaotic ballet of bullets and bad decisions known as the deathmatch.
Don't worry, rookie, Uncle Bard's got your back (unless you're aiming for it, then duck!). This ain't your mama's tea party, but with these deathmatch tips, you'll be racking up K/Ds smoother than a freshly oiled banana peel.

Step 1: Choose Your Poison (Weapons, That Is)
QuickTip: Stop and think when you learn something new.![]()
- Go Classic: Assault Rifle, Shotgun, Pistol. Timeless tools for a timeless tradition. You can't go wrong with a bullet-spraying symphony, a close-quarters boombox, and a trusty sidearm for when things get real personal.
- Spice It Up: Remember that flamethrower you snagged after a particularly fiery police chase? Time to introduce your opponents to the joys of barbeque. Or channel your inner Tony Montana with a chainsaw massacre. Just remember, collateral damage comes with a side of angry NPCs.
- Embrace the Absurd: Pool noodles? Traffic cones? A strategically placed banana peel? Yes, please! GTA 6 has weaponized the mundane, so unleash your inner cartoon coyote and let chaos reign. Bonus points for eliminating someone with a well-timed disco ball ricochet.
Step 2: Know Your Arena (Like the Back of Your Tattooed Knuckles)
Tip: Don’t just glance — focus.![]()
- Beach Brawl: Sun's out, guns out! Utilize those beach umbrellas for tactical cover, turn jet skis into ramming torpedoes, and unleash sand-fueled fury. Just don't get caught sunbathing with a minigun, unless you're into Darwinian tanning.
- Neon Nightmare: The neon-drenched cityscape is your jungle gym. Scale skyscrapers like a bullet-spitting Spiderman, zipline into unsuspecting crowds, and turn streetlights into disco-powered death rays. Just don't get electrocuted by your own dance moves.
- Desert Desolation: Sand, silence, and snipers. Welcome to the Hunger Games, GTA edition. Use cacti as improvised cover, dust devils as distraction tactics, and make every bullet count. Remember, silence is golden, unless you're blasting death metal from your monster truck.
Step 3: Embrace the Chaos (and Maybe a Therapist)
QuickTip: Skim for bold or italicized words.![]()
- Deathmatch Zen: It's not about winning, it's about the sheer, glorious spectacle of controlled mayhem. Laugh at your own idiocy, embrace the unexpected, and remember, every death is just a hilarious respawn away.
- Teamwork (Sometimes): Sure, lone wolves get all the glory, but a well-coordinated squad can dominate the battlefield. Just remember, trust is a luxury, betrayal is a discount, and friendly fire is a hilarious accident... most of the time.
- Trash Talk is a Weapon: Unleash your inner Shakespearean insult-slinger! Taunt your foes, mock their fashion choices, and question their mothers' questionable life decisions. Words may not hurt, but they might trigger a rage spiral that ends with a well-placed rocket to the face.
Remember, deathmatch is your canvas, your playground, your existential scream into the void. So grab your weapon of choice, embrace the absurdity, and paint the town red (or neon or sand-colored, it's your apocalypse). Just don't blame me when your therapist's waiting room starts to resemble a Grand Theft Auto lobby. Now go forth, wreak havoc, and remember, the only bad deathmatch is a boring one!
Bonus Tip: If all else fails, just grab a jetpack and rain mayhem from above. It's basically GTA's version of skydiving with a loaded shotgun. What could go wrong?
