GTA 6 Gameplay And A Full Map Have Seemingly Leaked Ahead Of The Big Netflix Reveal

New videos showcasing what appears to be gameplay from the upcoming Grand Theft Auto 6 have leaked online and are spreading like wildfire. And while Kotaku can’t 100 percent confirm their authenticity, they do seem to be real and are part of a larger, possible hack tied to GTA 6‘s lack of physical copies at launch. On August 18, a website named Cyberleek began posting what appears to be leaked gameplay footage of GTA 6. The site also has images of what the leaker claims is the full GTA 6 map. Some of this content is already being removed from the web. When I clicked on one of the leaked map images on the site, it sent me to an error page. I’ve also seen some video uploads on Twitter removed due to a “report by the copyright owner.” More than likely, Take-Two Interactive is actively going after these uploads to get them removed, seemingly confirming they are real.

Some of the footage shows Jason at his home, walking around, and playing basketball. Another clip shows a car being driven into a van on a sunny highway before both the driver of the van and the car get out and begin fighting. Combat in this clip seems similar to Red Dead Redemption II. On the Cyberleek site, the apparent leaker has posted a lengthy manifesto seemingly connecting the leaked gameplay and hack to punishment for publishers offering digital-only preorders and not supporting offline modes for games, among other demands. Kotaku has contacted Rockstar Games about the reportedly leaked gameplay and map images. Developing story…
