Last week, the Grand Theft Auto 6 map was leaked online alongside a clip of one of the game’s dual protagonists Jason. Since then, more than 10 alleged gameplay videos have been shared, with the ‘Cyberleek’ group claiming responsibility for the leaks.
It comes ahead of an ‘Extended Look’ showcase that’s due to premiere on Netflix tomorrow (August 27) before being shared more widely six hours afterwards. It’ll be the first official look at Grand Theft Auto 6 since Trailer 2 was released in May 2025.
Taking to social media to address the leaks, Rockstar Game said: “We know that many of you have been waiting to hear from us regarding the events of the past week. It would be an understatement to say that having videos of Grand Theft Auto 6 gameplay leak in this way has been heartbreaking for our team, and this is obviously not how we intended for you to see the game after all this time. We are very sorry that everything has taken as long as it has – from getting the game finished (nearly there!) to sharing more details and official gameplay, and providing the community with everything you want to know.”
“We are very excited for everyone to see the extended look tomorrow. It has taken longer than we wanted to get it ready, but as with everything we do, we know we need to exceed your expectations, and we are determined to deliver at the level you expect and deserve,” they continued. “While it is unfortunate that the intended game experience may now be impacted by some spoilers, we hope that everyone will wait a big longer to experience the game for themselves on November 19.”
“We want to thank everyone in the community who has reached out with messages of support this past week – your words have meant more to this team than you can imagine,” the statement added. “Ultimately, we are making this game for you and without you, we would not have the privilege of making games.”
