Even before GTA 6's official announcement from Rockstar Games, there have been many leaks and rumors floating around the community.
Over the years, many of these leaks and rumors have either been disapproved, contested, or even accepted by members of the vast community. However, this just goes on to show how fans can't wait to find out what will happen in Grand Theft Auto 6.
Among the leaks and rumors, the popular ones are always about what type of map and characters will be in the next installment. It is not surprising to understand why, as these two aspects are the most exciting parts of the game that is yet to be revealed.
The following is a list of some of the alleged rumors that have gathered over the years.
Here are some of GTA 6 map and character leaks so far
This article will mainly focus on the leaks and rumors around GTA 6's map and characters only, and there have been various sources that have provided players with these numerous rumors regarding GTA 6.
So, here we will mostly focus on the rumors provided by freelance writer and industry insider Tom Henderson and will be referencing many of them from his video about the same matter. In the said video, he has summarized most of the popular rumors surrounding the upcoming game.
Leaks and rumours regarding GTA 6's map
There have been many leaks regarding the map of GTA 6. Fans have been really interested in knowing where the next game will take them. The following are some of the leaks that came out of it:
Map set in 1980s
The first map leak can be traced back to 2018, and according to the leak, the title was codenamed Project Americas and would be set in 1980's Vice City.
This was soon disproven as having a 1980s setting would make it hard for Rockstar Games to implement this same setting in their online mode for GTA 6 as it would be a limitation for players.
Modern day Vice City Map
Revisiting the Vice City map in the new game is probably the most popular rumor that came out of another map leak that happened in 2021. Most fans still believe that GTA 6 would at least let them explore some parts of the city in some capacity, but unlike the previous rumor it would set in the modern day setting.
An evolving map
Another rumor that has a high probability of happening is the inclusion of an evolving and adapting map. This means that the map will not stay the same and will keep changing and adding new places as new DLCs and features come out for the next installment.
Map based in Latin America
Another rumor that has been highly discussed is that the game could be set in countries based in Latin America like Brazil or Cuba.
Leaks and rumours regarding GTA 6's characters
The leaks and rumors surrounding what the characters would be in GTA 6 have also been numerous. The following are some of the most popular ones that have come out of these leaks:
There will be multiple playable characters
The rumor that there will be multiple playable characters is probably the most popular and most believable one. This is so because Rockstar has seen great success with this method of introducing playable characters from the previous game and it is highly likely that they will do the same for the next game in this series.
One of the characters will be female
The leak regarding the introduction of a female character is a highly contested but widely anticipated one as many fans believe that this addition has been coming for a long time. The community believes that it is bound to happen in the next installment but again these are all rumors for now.
There will playable brother and sister character
The playable brother and sister character rumors come specifically from Twitter user @@Matheusbr9895_, a source who has been both on and off the mark in the past, but who has established a strong following in the Grand Theft Auto community over the last year.
However, players should take everything here with a grain of salt. None of this is official information, and even if it is, it could change at any time at Rockstar's discretion
Franklin will be back in some capacity
Finally, Franklin being in the next game is the result of the recently released DLC for Grand Theft Auto 5 called The Contract, which featured Franklin and Lamar returning to the series. So it might be possible for them to be back in some capacity for the next installment.
In the end, these are all leaks and rumors and should be treated like such. While there has been no official news regarding GTA 6, it is expected that information will be revealed in the coming months.
