Settle in
Claim your free Starter home when a free Starter plot is available, or compare vehicles before visiting Garage.
Find places and open menus
Use Overview for your suggested next step. Expand the location list and choose a guide action to follow a waypoint to a shop, the bank, workshop or another destination. Walk close to a location and use its interaction prompt; opening a menu does not let you transact from anywhere.
You can also click or tap menu and hotbar controls. Controller bumpers cycle tools and empty hands. Follow each interaction’s on-screen controls.
