With less than a week to go before Grand Theft Auto VI makes its big official debut (of sorts) on Netflix, it sure seems like a lot of footage is already out there.
Someone (or perhaps a group of people) called CyberLeek has allegedly been leaking short clips of GTA VI left and right this week. If the clips are real, they represent the first genuine glimpse of gameplay anyone outside of developer Rockstar Games has seen of the hotly anticipated title. If they’re not, well, then this whole thing has been a waste of time and energy.
Still, for posterity’s sake, it’s worth putting together a quick list of everything that’s been leaked so far. We’re not going to embed or link to any of these clips, as we can’t verify their authenticity, but they’re easy enough to find on X or Reddit, if you look hard enough.

Every GTA VI leak so far
At the time of publication, a total of nine clips and screenshots had surfaced that purportedly show different aspects of GTA VI. H
ere’s what each one appears to contain:
-
Map sneak peek 1:A small, cropped portion of the in-game world map, showing a location called Dalton Island.
-
Map sneak peek 2:Another cropped portion of the map showing locations called Tequesta Retreat, Gloriana Key, and Catalan Key.
-
Basketball video:A clip of protagonist Jason Duval throwing a basketball into a hoop repeatedly.
-
Full map:An alleged screenshot of the entire in-game map.
-
Random video 1:A clip of Jason driving around for a little bit, before beating up a truck driver.
-
Taser video: A clip of Jason driving before stealing a security guard’s taser and using it on him. Jason then repeatedly kicks the guard while he is on the ground.
-
Junkies video: A clip that appears to show a healing drug called Zombix. A tooltip indicates that Zombix’s effects will weaken over time if the player uses it too much.
-
Plane video:A clip of Jason flying a plane over Vice City, with much of the game world visible below. At the end, whoever is playing the game in the clip shoots the word “LEEK” into a wall with bullets, suggesting the leaker has a playable build of the game.
-
Hypercar part 1:A clip of Jason driving a high-end sports car around Vice City.
It’s worth reiterating that all of these could be fake. We live in a world of AI generation, after all. That said, as someone who has played nearly every GTA game, I found them fairly convincing. GTA games all move in a certain way, and that movement appears to be recreated remarkably well in these videos. Everything from character movement to NPC interactions looks relatively on-brand for a modern Rockstar game.
As for what’s next, we can’t say. But CyberLeek is notably running polls on its website that allow people to pay in cryptocurrency to vote on what should be leaked next. That’s certainly one way to spend your time and money, especially with real, official gameplay footage set to debut in less than a week.
