Players have used the lunar calendar to predict when new trailers would drop, rats to guess the game's story direction, and even monitored decibel levelsto figure out what Rockstar is cooking. The latest theory is just as pie-in-the-sky as the others, but it has a little credence, as one fan pointed out that a car in the trailer resembles the one shown by leaker Cyberleek in one of their videos. Could Rockstar Be Warning Cyberleek In Its New Grand Theft Auto 6 Trailer? Rockstar In typical Rockstar fashion, the company dropped GTA 6's launch trailer yesterday without warning. The 1:30 video dropped out of the blue on a random Thursday afternoon, over a month before launch, and, as usual, players have been combing through every detail. One scene in particular has caught the eye of the Grand Theft Auto 6 community, though. At around 46 seconds in, a green sports car can be seen racing through the streets of Leonida, pursued by multiple police cars. Some have taken this to be a warning to the now-infamous leaker Cyberleek. The green car matches the model seen in one of the leaks and, for some, represents Cyberleek. The police cars have been interpreted as Rockstar hunting them down. In a Reddit post, Fine-Letterhead6521 shared screenshots from the trailer, saying, "This is 100% a message that they will not give up looking for him [Cyberleek]." The post gained over 2,500 upvotes and 443 comments in under 24 hours, and it was met with a decidedly mixed reaction. Some said the small scene is "not that deep" and got frustrated with the post, while others were sucked into it. "I enjoyed this post; people are just being assholes. This is not some crazy theory. GTA universe is full of references," said Cosmoo006. We'll never know if this is actually a warning, but it's a fun spot either way, and you have to imagine the saga involving Cyberleek will run for years to come.
