Well, the fact that it's an early and ramshackle mess, mostly. After all, the people most excited about GTA 6 got a brief, tantalising look at the game well in advance. If you're trying to work out who comes out ahead in all this, which I am for some reason, it's tempting to point to the fans. ![]() ![]() That's pretty neat, but I'm not sure it's go-to-prison neat. Probably the only new thing we did learn is that GTA 6 will likely feature at least two protagonists, one of whom-a Latina woman called Lucia-would be the singleplayer games' first playable female protagonist since GTA 2 on the Game Boy Colour. There will be crimes, cops will be dispatched to stop the crimes, the action will take place from a third-person perspective, and in the background of it all, NPCs will say zany and outrageous things much as they've been doing in GTA games for the last 20 or so years. What did we learn? That GTA 6 will look a lot like GTA 5 (which looked a lot like GTA 4, which… you get the idea). It's all been quite quiet since then.Īnd that's… pretty much where we are at the end of the year: A teenager in a youth detention centre, myriad videos of a game that won't see the light of day for years floating around the internet, and the gnawing possibility that someone, somewhere out there, might have access to GTA 5 and 6 source code, which has probably generated no end of sleepless nights for Rockstar technicians.ĭumping a wealth of contextless early build footage out on the internet is confusing and dispiriting, not educational, and it will only make Rockstar guard its secrets more jealously. He denied one charge of computer misuse but pleaded guilty to violating a prior set of bail conditions. The FBI got involved and, in an investigation performed alongside the City of London police, a 17 year-old in Oxfordshire in the UK was arrested mere days after the leak took place. But rather than a cinematic, Holmes-and-Moriarty-style war of intellects between cops and crooks, the tale arrived at an anticlimax a few days later. We’ll update this post with more if and when they respond.So far, so Zero Cool. We’ve reached out to Rockstar owner Take-Two Interactive but did not hear back immediately. The game has been reportedly in development since 2014 (GTA 5 originally launched in 2013) so it would be reasonable to expect development snapshots to be from various builds over the years.Įarlier this month, Rockstar rolled the credits from GTA 5 and GTA 5 Online on its website, titling the page “Thank You,” which many took as a sign that it was winding down active development on the long-running and much-expanded fifth instalment in the series to focus more directly on the forthcoming sequel. It’s worth noting that these videos likely show an older build, which some indication they could be from around 2017. They also show gameplay taking place in a Miami-analog fictional city, again matching early reports about what GTA 6 will bring to the franchise. Various clips (many are being removed due to copyright claims as of Monday) from the leak depict both male and female protagonist characters, which does fit with other reports about what to expect in the forthcoming game. The leaks themselves appear either legitimate, or fakes created with such a high degree of attention to detail and authenticity that they have won over what was initially a very skeptical GTAForums member audience. Interestingly, the hacker (who goes by “teapotuberhacker” on the GTAForums) also claims to be the person responsible for the recent Uber hack, and says that they got the video by gaining access to a Rockstar employee’s Slack account - which is the same MO for Uber’s massive breach. The trove of data, which PCGamer discovered via a GTAForums post by the alleged hacker themselves, contains some 90 videos of clips from the game, with debug code and interfaces running and helping back up the veracity of the claims. Rockstar’s next installment in its Grand Theft Auto series could be one of the most anticipated video games in existence, and a new purported leak could offer us our best look yet at GTA 6. ![]()
