Unless you’ve been shocked and off the Internet for the past few months (in which case, congratulations), you’ll probably know that a) Grand Theft Auto VI is set to release next month and b) someone within its developer, Rockstar Games, appears to be leaking details about the game. A series of leaked gameplay videos have appeared on the Internet thanks to someone calling themselves “Cyberleek,” and this morning, another such video appeared. This is the most comprehensive video to date, with 25 minutes of gameplay footage.
Among other things, this footage includes cutscenes, gameplay, and co-protagonist Jason running around butt naked. (Lucia appears at the end of the video, topless but preserving her modesty with the thongest of thongs.)
The X accounts and website previously used by the leaker have now been suspended, but the video nevertheless spread like something particularly oleaginous and unpleasant through the sewers of the Internet. It can still be found with a cursory search, even if Rockstar – who must be sick of this crap – removes it with extreme prejudice.
At least one other account claiming to be Cyberleek remains active at the time of writing, but of course, without knowing the real identity of the leaker, it’s impossible to tell which accounts (if any) are truly theirs and which are copycats. This narrative repeats the leaker’s claims that their actions are a protest against the disappearance of physical media, superfluous commas and all: The cover image reads: “We don’t own the games, if they don’t provide us with physical editions.” » Like all altruistic idealists throughout history, he also invites his followers to, uh, buy his memecoin on pump.fun.
The video itself introduces the Cyberleek philosophy, via a title card at the very end. It’s… well, I don’t know, read it yourself.
Everything happens so much! I just can’t wait to see someone with “No matter what happens, I’ll deal with it” tattooed on their chest.
Bottom line: All of this will be forgotten as soon as the game releases, but in the meantime, current Cyberleeks are enjoying their moment in the sun and taking advantage of the largesse of X users. If you want to see the footage, knock yourself out while you still can.
