  "account": "Rockstar Games is currently dealing with additional GTA 6 footage leaking online just before their big August 27 showcase. A new group has emerged, claiming to have access to separate internal development material. The Reddit posts, discovered by Notebookcheck, suggest this second group is unrelated to CyberLeek. The alleged leak includes an April 2026 build screenshot and development files. If authentic, this would be considerably newer than other circulating GTA 6 footage. The group reportedly shared development files, shader-related material, and claims of internal GTA 6 build evidence. There are conflicting reports indicating the material may run on Xbox development hardware, though some suggest it might actually be on PC. One Reddit post claims the group gained access through phishing a Rockstar India employee, though there is no independent confirmation. Doubts persist about the material's authenticity, as some users question if the files could originate from GTA 6's massive 2022 breach. This latest episode adds to Rockstar's growing list of issues. In September 2022, over 90 clips from an early GTA 6 build leaked, and in December 2023, the game's first official trailer leaked early. Recently, Rockstar announced GTA VI: An Extended Look, which will premiere on Netflix before arriving on YouTube. Now, a second group claims access to a potentially much newer batch of GTA 6 files, if true, Rockstar may face two leak sources right before their official presentation.",
