The briefing

Use the individual database records alongside this guide to check the relevant edition, prerequisites and completion targets. A location, vehicle or activity can have different conditions in Story Mode and GTA Online.

The Interaction Menu provides quick access to GPS, vehicles, health and ammunition, appearance and other Online preferences. The guide was revised for the December 2023 Chop Shop reorganization, so its sections describe that later layout rather than simply preserving the menu as it appeared in 2013.

The opening control differs by platform: the relevant PlayStation touchpad, Xbox View control or PC M key opens the menu under the default controls. Available choices can depend on a player’s properties, active organization and current situation. Registering as a boss, managing service vehicles and changing passive-mode preferences are distinct actions. Follow the named submenu for the task, and check any custom control bindings before assuming a platform’s default button still applies.
