FAN SIMULATOR / FIELD GUIDE

GTA 6 wanted levels: our fan simulator explained

Understand the controls, compare one variable at a time and share your fictional scenario.

THE SHORT ANSWER

Wanted Lab is an original fan model. Its five-level scale, pressure and duration are invented, not verified GTA VI police mechanics.

Start with one variable

Use the default city scenario. Keep intensity at three and change only the vehicle archetype. Next switch the weather while keeping other controls fixed. This makes the effect of each assumption visible.

Understand the numbers

Pressure is a fictional index, not an escape probability. A score of 48 does not mean a 48% chance of anything. Duration is derived from pressure, not a measured GTA VI chase time. Equal settings always produce equal results.

Share an experiment

Copy a scenario link to preserve four controls in its URL. Friends can change one input and compare. The daily challenge refreshes on the UTC calendar without an account. It is an invitation to compare setups, not a leaderboard.

What this establishes

Nothing about the actual police system is established by the simulator. Even our five-level control is a design choice. Consult Rockstar for game information and keep theories separate from confirmed mechanics.
