WHAT THE OFFICIAL FILES SHOW
These notes describe what appears in Rockstar's location media. They do not convert scenery into promised gameplay systems.
Airboats and small craft occupy narrow channels where conventional roads would not define movement.
RETURN TO SIGNAL: Airboat routes ↑Alligators appear at close range in multiple official images, making the ecosystem a visible hazard and identity.
RETURN TO SIGNAL: Alligator habitat ↑Piers, restaurants and low-rise buildings show inhabited communities embedded in the wetlands.
RETURN TO SIGNAL: Waterfront settlements ↑One official vista places distant urban mass beyond the wetlands, but does not establish exact distance or orientation.
RETURN TO SIGNAL: Low, open horizons ↑


RUMOR WIRE
Repeated close-range alligator imagery makes decorative-only wildlife feel unlikely, though no hunting or survival system is confirmed.
Fans expect waterways to bypass roads and police pressure. Official media proves navigable-looking channels, not a stealth system.
