A series of unauthorized clips showing Grand Theft Auto 6 gameplay has appeared online, marking a significant breach ahead of the game's November 20, 2026, launch. While the footage is unconfirmed by Rockstar Games, it depicts the protagonist, Jason, in various scenarios throughout Vice City.

Source Reliability and Status

The credibility of these leaks is currently rated as reported (Tier 2). While the footage displays high-fidelity graphics, consistent character models, and functional UI elements that correspond with previous Rockstar previews, the material has not been verified by the developer. The leakers, operating under the moniker "Cyberleek," claim to possess a full build of the game, though this assertion remains unverified.

Gameplay Details Revealed

The leaked footage, consisting of over a dozen clips, provides an early look at several mechanics currently in development. Notable observations include:

  • UI and HUD: The interface includes a stamina bar and two distinct money counters, suggesting a separation between cash on hand and savings.
  • Police Interaction: The six-star wanted system returns. Rather than displaying police as dots on a minimap, the game uses a red-blue screen effect to indicate law enforcement presence.
  • World Mechanics: Players appear to have the ability to refuel vehicles, use healing items like "Zombix," and interact with locked vehicles via "smash window" or "clone key" prompts.
  • NPC Behavior: NPCs exhibit complex, varied reactions to player violence and interaction, including cowering, fainting, or fleeing.
  • Map Scale: Aerial footage confirms a large open-world environment, with some clips showing specific fishing areas and dense crowd populations in nightlife districts.

Take-Two Interactive has initiated legal action in response to the breach, filing subpoenas to identify those behind the "Cyberleek" account. The individuals responsible have claimed their actions are a protest regarding "gamer’s rights" and the preservation of single-player content, though the leaks have also been used to promote a cryptocurrency scheme. Players are advised that these leaks are unauthorized, potentially malicious, and do not represent the final, polished state of the game.
