The anonymous leaker known as Cyberleek has released a 25-minute video of Grand Theft Auto VI gameplay, marking a return after silence since late August. The footage, which features characters Jason and Lucia in various settings, includes scenes of nudity and first-person gameplay ahead of the game’s November 19, 2026, release.
Gameplay Details and the “Extended Leek”
On October 8, 2026, the online account Cyberleek posted an unauthorized video titled GTA 6: An Extended Leek,
a roughly 25-minute, 367MB file that has circulated across social media. The video showcases several aspects of the upcoming game, including dirt bike and street racing sequences, vehicle customization, and first-person perspectives for both driving and walking. According to reporting from Mashable, these features have not been officially confirmed by Rockstar Games for the final retail build.
Much of the attention surrounding the leak focuses on the presence of character nudity. The footage shows protagonists Jason and Lucia in various states of undress, including during cutscenes and mission segments. While Rockstar confirmed in an interview with IGN that you can sometimes find Jason nude in the shower, the leaked video depicts the characters unclothed in open-world environments. Some reports noted that the footage shows a tank seemingly conjures a tank out of the air,
leading to speculation that the leaker may be utilizing developer tools or a modified game build rather than standard gameplay mechanics.
The footage also provides a closer look at the Thrillbilly Mud Club, a dirt-racing venue previously glimpsed in the game’s first official trailer. In these sequences, Jason and Lucia are seen renting separate dirt bikes from an in-world vendor identified as Rooster Rentals. The rental menu features two specific models: the Manchez and the Sanchez, each priced at $200. Notably, the interface displays differentiated off-road and asphalt ratings, suggesting that Rockstar has implemented a stat system specifically designed for terrain-specific handling—a departure from the physics criticisms leveled at Grand Theft Auto V.
The Return of Cyberleek After Silence
The release of the footage follows a period of inactivity for the Cyberleek account, which had gone silent in late August 2026. This update fueled speculation about a potential return, which was confirmed when the “Extended Leekwas published. The name of the video is considered a deliberate jab at Rockstar's own
Extended Look” released on Netflix in August.
PCMag reported that estimates of the leaker’s earnings from transaction fees for the coin are in the range of $270,000. The leaker concluded the video with a message claiming to have a new, non-Rockstar-related gaming project that requires expensive hardware
and “full-time” commitment.
Industry analysts have noted that the reaction to this latest breach has been more muted compared to the original September 2024 incident, where over 90 videos and screenshots were leaked in a single weekend. According to TechRadar’s historical reporting, that initial event set the standard for the ongoing leak saga. While ransomware groups like Rhysida and HelloKitty typically demand payment and release stolen data if refused, the Cyberleek campaign has operated in distinct waves over two years, creating a unique challenge for publishers.
Rockstar Maintains Grand Theft Auto VI Release Date
Rockstar Games has maintained the November 19, 2026, release date for Grand Theft Auto VI on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. While the leaks have generated significant community discussion, analysts and industry observers note that the footage originates from unauthorized builds. In past statements, the studio characterized the unauthorized distribution of unfinished material as “heartbreaking” and not how they intended fans to see the game. The company has yet to provide further clarification on the specific leaked elements, maintaining its commitment to a controlled reveal of the final product before the game’s official release.
The legal risks for those operating leak-focused sites remain significant. Past activity has led to numerous subpoenas as investigators attempt to trace the origin of the material. Meanwhile, fans awaiting the November 19 launch are seeing the game compared to the lineage of series protagonists like Arthur Morgan and Niko Bellic, as detailed in recent features like the LOVE magazine issue released on October 5. For now, the studio continues to focus on the game’s official marketing cycle, leaving the status of features like first-person mode or unrestricted character nudity unverified ahead of the launch.
“This is obviously not how we intended for you to see the game after all this time.”
