GTA 6 Leak: ‘Grand Theft Auto’ Trailer Reveals Game’s Release Date
In an unexpected turn of events, a leaked trailer for the highly anticipated “Grand Theft Auto VI” surfaced online, revealing crucial details about the game’s release date. The trailer, which garnered over 32 million views within its initial hours on YouTube, showcased the next instalment of the iconic and action-packed game franchise.
Originally scheduled for release on Tuesday, December 5, at 9 am PST, the trailer made an early appearance online, prompting developer Rockstar Games to address the situation on social media. In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Rockstar Games acknowledged the leak and urged fans to watch the official trailer on YouTube.
The leaked trailer confirmed that “Grand Theft Auto VI” is set to hit the gaming world in 2025, marking a significant milestone for fans who have eagerly awaited the next chapter since the release of GTA 5 in 2013. The trailer prominently features a female protagonist named Lucia, embarking on a crime spree across various settings, including crowded beaches, city highways, and clubs, alongside her partner.
Rockstar Games, a subsidiary of Take-Two Interactive, has faced challenges with leaks in the past. In 2022, the company fell victim to hackers who exposed unreleased footage from the upcoming GTA installment. The leaked screenshots and gameplay videos were confirmed as genuine by the company, attributing the security breach to an unauthorized third party engaging in a “network intrusion.” The gaming community has been eagerly anticipating the official release of GTA 6, and the leaked trailer has only heightened the excitement surrounding the forthcoming instalment.
