Where did the GTA 6 leaks originate?

At around 3:26 AM on September 18, a user going by the name "teapotuberhacker" published the first Grand Theft Auto 6 leaks on the GTAForums website.

In addition to claiming to have 90 videos and snippets of the game, the user also promised to offer more information, including the source codes, assets, and test builds for both GTA 5 and 6.

The post received a swift response from users, and it rapidly went viral. While several individuals initially expressed skepticism by saying things like "No pic no click," others quickly looked at the flies in the link and admitted that they were true.

The news and flies quickly spread across the internet. Twitter and Reddit were among the first social media platforms to capture the information. Though no official statements have been issued by Rockstar Games yet, renowned YouTubers, video game informers, and other reliable sources have expressed their concerns about the issue.

The news's level of virality was so intense that GTA 6 is still trending on numerous social media platforms. Utilizing the opportunity, the original author of the leaks revised their position and offered Rockstar a bargaining proposal. If the gaming company is willing to pay them some ransom, they have agreed to stop posting any additional leaks.

This has further received negative repercussions from the community worldwide. Many are calling on Rockstar or its parent company Take-Two Interactive to file a lawsuit against the user. TGG, a well-known gaming YouTuber, also stated his concern that the leak would cause further delays in the game's release.

What is known about GTA 6 so far?

On February 4, 2022, Rockstar announced the development process for the new entry in the Grand Theft Auto series via Twitter. This is the first and only official information about the game that has been made public.

Furthermore, Rockstar has promised to release more details and information about the game via its newswires as they become available.
