Recent leaks surrounding Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6) have raised concerns about potential cybersecurity threats. CyberLeek, the leaker responsible for recent gameplay clips, claims to have access to a playable build of the game. Three new clips have been uploaded, showing Jason, one of the game's two playable characters, engaging in various activities.
One clip depicts Jason using a knife and taser, while another displays him flying a plane over the game's main city. The most controversial detail revealed is the possibility of vehicles running out of fuel.
The leak has caused a significant drop in Take-Two's stock value, falling by approximately five points or around $2 billion. This has prompted hackers to target users searching for the leaked build on unfamiliar websites, distributing malware-laden fake downloads. Despite claims that CyberLeek or others may have released an early version of the game, there is no evidence to support this assertion.
Grand Theft Auto VI is scheduled to release on November 19 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series consoles. An official gameplay preview will be hosted on Netflix and YouTube on August 27, followed by a PC version at an unspecified later date.
