  "account": "A significant amount of data from Rockstar, including GTA5's source code and remnants of canceled DLC, has surfaced online. The data was likely extracted during the 2022 Lapsus hack, which revealed GTA6 to the world. YouTuber TJGM released a video showing gameplay from a canceled Liberty City project, which appears to be based on a mod rather than the leaked material. The video highlights a map of audio loading zones that could potentially create a map of the multi-island city. Meanwhile, user affmal has shared screenshots and findings related to Agent Trevor files, which seem to be more substantial than the Liberty City content. Affmal has managed to load map and model data into GTA5 to explore, including an underwater base map reminiscent of Deus Ex. Additionally, TJGM has uncovered an early version of GTA6's map loaded into GTA5, with markers denoting locations like Alligator Farm, Coast Guard, and Disused Theme Park. The map is reported to be unfinished and dates back to 2015. TJGM has shared side-by-side comparisons of this unfinished map and corresponding locations from GTA6's trailers. Despite the ongoing leaks surrounding GTA6, which is set to release on November 19, this platform-specific version will not be available on PC.",
