Enormous Grand Theft Auto 6 Leak Reveals Girl Lead Driving, Taking pictures

A person on GTAForums, who claims to have additionally been behind the latest hack of Uber, has simply dumped almost 100 movies on-line claiming to point out improvement footage of Rockstar’s Grand Theft Auto VI, that are at present circulating throughout just about each social media platform.

Matching a lot of what Bloomberg reported earlier this 12 months—together with that the sport will co-star a lady and be set in Vice Metropolis—the movies are very a lot in-development footage, with unfinished textures and fashions in all places, and code enjoying out in real-time throughout lots of them. The leaker is at present taking requests asking folks what else they’d wish to see in additional movies.

In a single, a white male playable character encounters a racist NPC by a poolside, and because the dialog transpires you may see the code required for the interplay enjoying out alongside the in-game motion. In one other, the lady character—I’m solely specifying it like this as a result of it could be a collection first—explores one of many collection’ notorious strip golf equipment.

There’s additionally a video displaying “passenger capturing mechanics”, illustrated with the participant taking an AK-47 to some pursuing police automobiles, and one other that showcases the inside modelling of a automotive.

One of many extra full movies uploaded reveals each characters partnering as much as rob a diner, holding the patrons at gunpoint earlier than the police arrive. Others are in rougher form, and have little greater than a featureless placeholder character shifting round an empty panorama performing out fight animations like taking cowl.

The legitimacy of those movies is clearly in query. There’s actually numerous footage, and faking each the motion and the code working on the similar time could be numerous work for an web prank. Nevertheless it’s nonetheless a leak, and except Rockstar feedback (we’ve reached out and can replace if we hear again), we gained’t comprehend it’s actual till we are able to match what’s proven right here with no matter ultimately turns up in GTA VI.

Whether it is actual, then holy shit. Given the standing of the sport and the quantity of footage it could be one of many greatest of all time, proper up there with Half-Life 2. Thus far, although, it’s wanting legit: not solely are reporters like ex-Kotaku behemoth Jason Schreier saying that Rockstar contacts have confirmed the data to them, Rockstar staff look like liking tweets associated to the obvious hack. However the wildest half?

The hacker is making an attempt to strike a cope with Rockstar proper now, although we don’t know what sort. To cease distributing extra materials? To make sure that the leaker doesn’t get sued? Regardless of the case, that is positively one of the vital unprecedented leaks in all of online game historical past.
