New GTA 6 Leaks Show the Full Map and a Threat to Rockstar

Grand Theft Auto 6 has seemingly suffered another major leak, with alleged gameplay footage and an image claiming to show the game's full map appearing online just days before Rockstar's planned official gameplay reveal.

Two clips have surfaced, with one reportedly showing Jason playing basketball outside his home and another showing him driving before attacking an NPC. An image purporting to show the wider GTA 6 map has also been circulating online.

Rockstar and Take-Two haven't officially authenticated the material, although reports indicate that copyright takedowns have been issued against some of the circulating footage. The leaks arrive at a time when Rockstar is preparing to give fans a much more substantial look at GTA 6 on August 27.

At the same time, the group claiming responsibility is using the footage to make a broader argument about the future of game ownership.

What is in the GTA 6 leak?

The latest material consists of two short gameplay clips and an alleged image of the complete GTA 6 map. One video reportedly shows Jason playing basketball outside his home, while the other shows him driving before getting into an altercation with an NPC.

The alleged map has generated even more discussion, with reports suggesting it shows a much broader view of Leonida and several regions that have not previously been seen in Rockstar's official marketing. However, it's important not to treat every detail circulating online as confirmed GTA 6 information.

Rockstar has not verified the footage or map, and development builds can change considerably before release. The safest description for now is that these are alleged GTA 6 assets that appear to have come from a development build.

Who is behind the GTA 6 leak?

The material has been linked to a group calling itself CyberLeek, which appears to have published the footage as part of a campaign against major game publishers. Rather than simply leaking GTA 6 for attention, CyberLeek reportedly claims to be protesting the industry's increasing reliance on digital distribution and what it sees as the erosion of game ownership.
