Alleged TikTok Leak of Grand Theft Auto 6 May Have Ties to Rockstar Employee's Son – Claims Surface
Exclusive TikTok Leak Claims Grand Theft Auto 6 Details Leaked by Rockstar Employee's Son! Is the highly anticipated game's secret out?
As the release of Grand Theft Auto 6's debut trailer draws near, other gaming companies are joining in on the teaser fun with sunset-colored footage. A video has surfaced on Tiktok that allegedly shows a glimpse of the upcoming game's cityscape, which is thought to have come from the son of a Rockstar Games employee. According to Eurogamer, two videos from a throwaway account on Tiktok claim to offer the "first look at GTA6," but they only provide brief and limited views of the same urban area with a highway running through it.
Shortly after, GTABase.com, a site focused on GTA, revealed that the leaked footage may have originated from the son of a Rockstar Games employee, a development that took everyone by surprise. Subsequently, a photo emerged showing the son alongside his father, supposedly as evidence of the leaker's identity. However, GTABase cast doubt on the authenticity of the photo, suggesting that it could either be a misidentification of the employee's son or a deliberate attempt by a third party to impersonate him.
This is not the first time that leaks have impacted GTA VI, as a substantial amount of footage and screenshots were leaked in September 2022, leading to the arrest of an 18-year-old individual. Rockstar Games has recently ramped up the anticipation for GTA VI by confirming that the first trailer will premiere "in early December," with the exact release date being revealed just last week.
Grand Theft Auto 6's first trailer is scheduled to release December 5 at 6 AM PT / 9 AM ET. The game will be set in Vice City--the GTA equivalent of Miami.
Editor's P/S
As a Gen Z fan, I am incredibly excited about the upcoming release of Grand Theft Auto 6. I have been a fan of the series since I was a child, and I have been eagerly awaiting the release of this new installment for years.
The alleged TikTok leak of gameplay footage has only served to increase my excitement. The footage looks absolutely stunning, and it gives me a glimpse of what to expect from the game. I can't wait to explore the new city of Vice City and to see what kind of trouble I can get into. I am also curious to see how the story will unfold. The GTA series has always had great stories, and I am sure that GTA 6 will be no exception.
