Molotov Cocktails

Molotov Cocktails, or Molotovs, are fired weapons appearing in every game since Grand Theft Auto 2, and two to appear in Grand Theft Auto VI. Already appeared in a previous chapter of the series (GTA V): The Molotov cocktail is an incendiary weapon that is used to set a small area on fire. As in real life, molotovs are home made; they are prepared by inserting a rag into an open glass bottle, allowing the rag to ignite the flammable liquid within. This causes the soaked rag to become flammable itself, allowing it to be lit on fire. Because the fumes from the flammable liquid (which are actually what catches fire, not the liquid itself) are contained within the bottle, full ignition does not occur until the glass container is broken, allowing the fumes to escape. This normally happens upon impact of the Molotov against a hard surface, after being pulled.
