GTA 6 video leak is real as Rockstar take down files and Vice City confirmed
A hacker has got hold of almost a 100 videos and screenshots of GTA 6, as Rockstar Games desperately tries to remove them from the internet.
What looks to be one of the biggest hacks ever for an upcoming video game involves dozens of videos, multiple screenshots, and possibly even source code for Grand Theft Auto 6.

That detail, like anything else, could be changed before the final game is released – which isn’t expected to happen for at least two years – but at the moment Vice City seems to be the plan.
