GTA6Credit: Rockstar GamesIt's inescapable. By now, you've seen at least a glimpse of the Grand Theft Auto 6 from CyberLeek. With the advent of fake gaming trailers through A.I., it is tough to know what's real. You might not even want to see anymore — especially if you're genuinely excited about playing the game the way it was designed to be played. Who am I kidding? It's 2026 and no one can wait for anything. Here's everything that was leaked and what you should believe. Let's talk video games.GTA VI Leaks: Key FactsDetailInfoLeakerCyberLeekWhat they appear to haveA playable buildClips posted13 and countingDistributionTheir own site, X, TelegramRockstar responseDMCA takedownsTake-Two responseSubpoenas to Microsoft and DiscordOfficial statementNoneNetflix Extended LookStill on for August 27, 2026Release windowNovember 2026Protagonist shownJason DuvalSetting shownVice City and the state of LeonidaMap sneak peek 1: We get a sneak peek of a location called Dalton Island. Map sneak peek 2: In another sneak peek, we see the map showing locations called Tequesta Retreat, Gloriana Key, and Catalan Key.Basketball video: A clip of protagonist Jason Duval shooting hoops in some sort of mini-game. His form is trash.Full map: This one is sketchy, but it could be an entire map in the vast world.Random driving video 1: Jason driving around before he attacks a truck driver.Taser video: Apparently, there are tasers in the game. This clip shows Jason tasing a security guard with his own weapon. Drug video: There’s apparently a drug called Zombix. This shows the effects of using it.Plane video: Jason flies a plane over Vice City. This one seems to have branding as the person playing shoots the word “LEEK” into a wall with their bullets.Jason drives a sports car part 1: Jason drives a sports car around Vice City. I don’t know the car. Jason drives a sports car part 2: More of the same, except he robs someone in this clip.Strip club: Jason heads into a strip club and then there’s a cutscene. This one felt very much like it was from the actual game.Gas station: Jason goes ham at a gas station. He steals a truck, crashes it and dies. This is the only clip among the leaks that Jason dies.Nudist colony: Jason heads to a nudist colony and people are legit naked. Jason then attacks the naked NPCs.What We Know Is RealRockstar has not confirmed the footage in a statement. It has done something more telling, issuing DMCA takedowns and, through Take-Two, subpoenaing Microsoft and Discord. Companies do not file takedowns over fake video.Two details point to a recent build rather than old capture. The bullet-sprayed wall shows someone playing live, and a song released in January 2025 turns up on an in-game radio station.Play Puzzles & Games on ForbesBloomberg's Jason Schreier reported that "Rockstar's leaders and many employees are angry."The Netflix Extended Look still runs August 27.Maybe I'm weird, but I don't actually want to see the leaks. I'd really like to watch the Netflix special, as it was planned, have my feelings about it one way or another, then play the game when its available, and then move on with my life. I know these leaks were meant to troll and to point the proverbial sword at Rockstar, but it hasn't exactly been great for gamers who were fine with waiting on everything to drop as planned. Now we have a muddied picture that isn't going to stop anyone from buying the game — it just makes it a tad less enjoyable.READ MOREGTA VI Full Extended Reveal: Date, Time and How to WatchGTA 6 Price Leaks: What to Believe and What to DismissGrand Theft Auto 6 Release Date and Everything ConfirmedGrand Theft Auto 6 Details Emerge Before Netflix Reveal
