Even more Grand Theft Auto 6 footage has leaked, this time of Vice City beach showcasing impressive crowd tech — here's the full timeline of everything that has leaked so far

• Grand Theft Auto 6 gameplay leaks have been appearing online since mid-August
• More and more footage is being posted every day by the leaker known as ‘Cyberleek’
• Here’s a full timeline featuring every gameplay leak so far

Grand Theft Auto 6 is just three months out from launch, and the game is set to get a special extended look premiering on Netflix this week. However, an unknown individual or group known as ‘Cyberleek’ has put a spanner in Rockstar Games’ plan and has been posting leaked gameplay footage for over a week.

Cyberleek has since claimed the leaks stem from a goal to stop the end of physical game discs, which Sony plans to do starting January 2028, and Rockstar, which confirmed that the physical version of GTA 6 won’t have a disc, but a digital code in the box instead.

While all alleged gameplay footage being posted shows an advertisement for Cyberleek’s cryptocurrency scheme, which brings into question the leaker’s true motivation, they’ve also released a manifesto protesting Rockstar’s decision and threatened to “disrupt their operations” by leaking game material until the studio issues a public statement and apologizes.

Well, it’s another day, and more alleged gameplay footage has been posted online. A lot has happened over the past week, but if you haven’t caught up, here’s a summary of everything that’s leaked so far.

August 18

The very first GTA 6 leak was posted on August 18 and shows co-protagonist Jason Duval playing basketball outside his house in the southern part of Leonida, in an area called Key Lento.

We’ve seen this area and Jason’s house in past trailers, but Rockstar hadn’t shared any gameplay. In the clip, Jason is wandering around before picking up a basketball; it looks like the player can dribble and use an aiming mechanic to shoot the ball into the net. There’s also a focus meter that gradually increases, with a level system.

The second clip was posted the same day and gave fans a first look at what it’s like driving around in GTA 6. Jason can be seen speeding along the roads before getting into a fight with a non-player character (NPC).

Cyberleek also posted a look at the game’s Leonida map, which showed areas like Lummox County, Leonard County, Kelly County, Vice Dale County, and Mariana County.

August 19

More gameplay footage, this time two minutes long, was posted the following day, showing Jason breaking into a gated area, killing security guards, before taking their tasers. He then steals a semitruck and drives off, and you can see vehicle health and fuel gauges on the HUD.

Then there’s a short cutscene showing Jason and his friend Cal Hampton on a boat, which some suggest is a scene from the beginning of the game.

Another gameplay clip was posted shortly after, showing Jason stabbing a police officer and stealing his motorcycle, as well as what looks like six “Wanted” stars, which is one more than GTA 5. The footage continues, and Jason can then be seen using what looks like pain medication called “Zombix.”

August 20

The next clip features Jason flying a small plane over the map, presumably Vice City, and it looks highly detailed. The render distance looks impressive, and you can see lots of buildings, roads, traffic, and more. The player can also be seen browsing radio stations.

Afterward, a second clip shows the player spelling the word “LEEK” on the side of a building using bullets, leading many fans to believe Cyberleek has at least some sort of playable build and the footage isn’t stolen from Rockstar’s servers.

August 21

The gameplay leaks continued the following day, with the next showing Jason driving a hypercar, specifically, the Truffade Thrax from GTA Online.

August 22

The GTA 6 leaks continued into this past weekend, with longer footage showing a variety of activities, including Jason driving around, pulling into a gas station, physically refueling his car, and then going inside the shop to rob the clerk. When Jason punches him, you can see the hair tech in action, his hat flying off, and Jason taking money from the register.

The clip cuts after he drives away and crashes his car, then Jason can be seen entering a strip club. However, the footage ends with Cyberleek asking for “3mil marketcap = stripclub” in a message on screen for their cryptocurrency scheme.

Well, the leaker delivered, and the next clip shows a deeper look at the strip club, showing neon lights and dancers, as well as highly detailed NPCs in conversation.

August 23

The following day, another clip was posted showing Jason driving to another gas station, stealing someone’s truck, and running down the owner. When he crashes the car, the iconic “Wasted” screen pops up, and shortly after, it cuts to Jason having what appears to be an unscripted conversation with an NPC while they both pee in urinals.

Another notable feature of the clip is the mission marker that reads “Return to Lucia”, suggesting the leaker could be in the middle of a mission that requires Jason to meet back up with his girlfriend.

More gameplay was posted later, showing Jason flying over Vice City at night.

August 24

On August 24, new gameplay showed Jason walking around a nudist town in Leonida; he enters a party, where there’s a pool and lots of naked people standing around or dancing, or ordering drinks at a bar. The player also zooms in on these NPCs using binoculars, and yeah… the bodies are very realistic.

When Jason focuses on another woman, she attacks him, and he kills her before firing his pistol at the rest of the surrounding NPCs.

August 25

The latest leaks got posted today, and it is the first time we see Rockstar’s impressive crowd tech at work, seemingly running in-game. The first clip is similar to a shot from the first GTA 6 trailer, but has Jason cycling along Vice City beach instead.

There are a ton of NPCs packed together, showcasing the density the developer’s tech allows, and you can see them lounging around, playing in the water, or walking around; the water physics also look remarkable, as do the sand effects.

The next clip shows Jason visiting a shopping plaza and a used video game store that sells physical games, which is ironic given Rockstar’s decision to not release a disc version of GTA 6.

The player zooms in on the shelves using binoculars, and every game and movie is named.

It’s a bit blurry, but one game title looks like it reads “We Came Together I, II, & III Remasters of the Remakes” (or “Remixes,” it’s hard to tell), which seems like a little nod to Naughty Dog’s multiple editions of The Last of Us Part 1 and Part 2.

Signs also state that electronics, consoles, and collectibles can be traded in before Jason walks up to the counter and cycles through a selection of purchasable and wearable earbuds.

That’s every alleged gameplay leak that Cyberleek has shared as of today, but we’ll keep you updated if more details are posted.

Fans can also look forward to the Grand Theft Auto 6: An Extended Look ahead of the game’s launch on November 19, which is set to premiere on Netflix on August 27 at 3PM ET / 12PM PT / 8PM BST and later launch on the studio’s YouTube channel at 9PM ET / 6PM PT / 2AM BST.

It’s speculated that the extended look will finally reveal official gameplay and Trailer 3.
