sport · Vice City clubs (presumed)
Tennis as a playable activity in GTA 6 is not yet shown by Rockstar — this entry is editorial speculation. GTA V introduced tennis as a fully playable activity for all three protagonists, complete with a proper rally-and-serve minigame across multiple courts. Vice City's class hierarchy — the same beach-club elite that GTA Vice City Stories played up — is fertile ground for the activity to return. The likely structure is the GTA V template: court selection, an AI opponent ladder, a co-op doubles option, and stake-betting against NPCs. Court geography would lean on Vice City's beach clubs and waterfront mansions — the same locations the trailers have established as the playground of Leonida's wealthy class. The activity could double as a narrative beat: a high-society contact who books a court is a clean Rockstar mission hand-off. No trailer or screenshot has previewed tennis directly. Until then, this is one of the activities GTA Base lists in anticipation rather than from Rockstar source material — and we're flagging it as such. There's also a non-gameplay angle: tennis as Vice City status symbol. The 1980s-2020s collision Rockstar is dialing into for GTA 6 has tennis whites and clubhouse mixers right in its iconography. Whether or not the activity is fully playable at launch, it would be a surprise if club exteriors weren't part of the visible city skyline. If it does ship as a playable mode, it's most likely the GTA V model again — court selection, AI ladder, doubles co-op — possibly with a Lucia-Jason rivalry arc as the activity's narrative spine.
Tennis is an activity in Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online.
Tennis is unlocked after the mission Complications. It is an activity that can be done with dates or as a challenge against computer opponents with several different difficulty levels. Before starting, the player can select the numbers of sets you wish to play and the difficulty. There are several different shot types the player may use, such as lobs, topspins and backspins. You can also win money by winning a game of tennis. It is only available if playing as Michael or Trevor.
Unlike golf, tennis can be played at any time of day or night. The game clock will also be stopped.
The player is required to win a game of tennis in order to achieve 100% Completion in GTA V.
Playing tennis improves the character's Strength stat, and a higher Strength improves the character's tennis game.
