According to the leaker, the videos are running with GTA 5 and GTA 6 source codes and assets. GTA 6 LeakĪ GTS Forums user by the name ‘teapotuberhacker’ recently posted 90 videos claiming they are from a test build of the Grand Theft Auto 6. With GTA 6 the gaming industry has stirred up headlines with one of, if not the biggest leak ever! With over 90 videos featuring gameplay, character interactions and more, GTA 6 has leaked online. Similar to big Marvel or DC movies, or more so, video games are also susceptible to leaks as fans are always looking for a little taste of what they’ll be getting with the upcoming release. It'll almost certainly be the biggest video game launch ever when it arrives in 2025, and we'd have all-but-forgotten about that time the first trailer leaked a bit early.īut right now, it all feels like a bit of a shame.If you’re a gamer with even a slight interest in the upcoming big video game titles, you know how big Grand Theft Auto 6 is! The game has been in development for over half a decade with the official confirmation dropping only back in February 2022. Judging by all the social media chatter - and the data shared with us - fans are excited and the number of views for it are on a totally new scale.

The trailer is certainly impressive, and the team of Rockstar should be proud of it. But the reveal of a Grand Theft Auto is a once-in-a-decade event, one nobody would want to miss (and many did).ĭoes it matter in the grand scheme of things? No, not really. But with no E3, and with platform holders focusing mainly on what was coming out during 2023 (outside of Xbox, who showed a bit more with its summer showcase), it's not been a vintage year for exciting announcements. We've had plenty of big game releases, sure. We've not had a great deal of moments this year.

And you don’t get a bigger moment than this, not just for video games but for the whole of entertainment. There were GTA fans organising watch parties for this trailer, there were media outlets and YouTubers planning live streams, reaction videos, podcasts, articles… a game reveal, particularly one of this scale, is a community event and an opportunity for fans to come together around a single moment. In today's world, the marketing campaign and all the elements associated with it are an extension to the game itself. The first time that players 'experience' GTA 6 isn't when they boot up the game, but when they see that first screenshot, or that logo, or the trailer. This isn't how Grand Theft Auto 6 was meant to be shown to the world. But it's one thing to leak the existence of a game, and quite another to share actual material and videos related to it. Some of my peers in the media argue that this is all just an advert, and that bemoaning leaks is just doing the marketing department's job for them. The trailer dropped late in the evening for those in Europe, so most of those fans won't have seen it until the morning It was a disappointing start to a significant week for the video games business when it comes to new game announcements. And the media was forced to hastily reschedule their planned coverage as they rushed to share the news with their readers. The trailer dropped late in the evening for those in Europe, so most of those fans won't have seen it until the morning. But this isn't what was supposed to happen. Rockstar was forced to react and put the video out officially, and the reception to the 90-second trailer has been very positive.

After last year's disappointing hack that exposed 90 work-in-progress gameplay videos, the highly anticipated trailer, which was due to debut later today, found its way onto the internet 14 hours early. This week is less about angering social media, and more to do with another leak around the highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto 6. Hell, they can't even port Red Dead Redemption to other platforms without evoking the wrath of the internet. For a developer that's only put out two original games in the past ten years, they sure have had plenty of fires to put out. The Rockstar PR team must be wondering if they will ever catch a break.
