‘GTA 6’ Leak Shows New Unofficial Gameplay Ahead of Netflix Reveal
Developing story first seen 2 hours ago
An unofficial gameplay clip purporting to show Grand Theft Auto 6 has surfaced online, offering fans an early, unauthorised glimpse of the game ahead of an official extended reveal from Rockstar Games and Netflix scheduled for 27 August 2026. The minute-long clip appears to show co-protagonist Jason relaxing at home and playing basketball, giving some insight into the game's environmental detail and minor mechanics, though its authenticity and origin remain unconfirmed.
The footage, shared by a group calling itself Cyberleek, shows Jason dribbling and shooting hoops, earning an in-game "Focus" reward for successful baskets, while a basketball rolling into water demonstrates realistic physics. It also reveals parts of the game's heads-up display, including a stamina meter and what appear to be two separate money reserves, though the absence of proper button icons makes it unclear which platform or build the clip originates from. Grand Theft Auto 6 is due for release on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X on 19 November 2026.

Rockstar Games has been developing Grand Theft Auto 6 as the follow-up to one of the best-selling entertainment products ever made, and anticipation for it has been unusually intense for years. The game is currently expected to launch on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X on 19 November 2026, and Rockstar has been drip-feeding official trailers rather than gameplay, which has left fans hungry for any extra detail about how it will actually play.
Leaks have become a recurring feature of the run-up to release, with various clips and images claiming to show unreleased footage circulating on social media, often from unverified sources. These are separate from Rockstar's own promotional material, and the studio has not confirmed whether any particular leak is genuine, so such clips are typically treated with caution until officially verified.
This particular story sits ahead of a scheduled joint reveal event from Rockstar Games and Netflix, which points to the streaming giant having some involvement in how the game is being promoted or possibly adapted. That upcoming event, set for 27 August 2026, is expected to give an official, extended look at the game, which is why an unofficial leak beforehand has drawn attention.
