A idiosyncratic connected GTAForums, who claims to person besides been down the caller hack of Uber, has conscionable dumped astir 100 videos online claiming to amusement improvement footage of Rockstar’s Grand Theft Auto VI, which are presently circulating crossed beauteous overmuch each societal media platform.

Matching overmuch of what Bloomberg reported earlier this year—including that the crippled volition co-star a pistillate and beryllium acceptable successful Vice City—the videos are precise overmuch in-development footage, with unfinished textures and models each implicit the place, and codification playing retired successful real-time crossed galore of them. The leaker is presently taking requests asking radical what other they’d similar to spot successful much videos.

In one, a achromatic antheral playable quality encounters a racist NPC by a poolside, and arsenic the speech transpires you tin spot the codification required for the enactment playing retired alongside the in-game action. In another, the pistillate character—I’m lone specifying it similar this due to the fact that it would beryllium a bid first—explores 1 of the series’ infamous portion clubs.

There’s besides a video showing “passenger shooting mechanics”, illustrated with the subordinate taking an AK-47 to immoderate pursuing constabulary cars, and another that showcases the interior modelling of a car.

One of the much implicit videos uploaded shows some characters partnering up to rob a diner, holding the patrons astatine gunpoint earlier the constabulary arrive. Others are successful rougher shape, and diagnostic small much than a featureless placeholder quality moving astir an bare scenery acting retired combat animations similar taking cover.

The legitimacy of these videos is evidently successful question. There’s surely a batch of footage, and faking some the enactment and the codification moving astatine the aforesaid clip would beryllium a batch of enactment for an net prank. But it’s inactive a leak, and unless Rockstar comments (we’ve reached retired and volition update if we perceive back), we won’t know it’s existent until we tin lucifer what’s shown present with immoderate yet turns up successful GTA VI.

If it is real, past beatified shit. Given the presumption of the crippled and the magnitude of footage it would beryllium 1 of the biggest of each time, right up determination with Half-Life 2. So far, though, it’s looking legit: not lone are reporters similar ex-Kotaku behemoth Jason Schreier saying that Rockstar contacts person confirmed the info to them, Rockstar employees appear to beryllium liking tweets related to the evident hack. But the wildest part?

The hacker is trying to onslaught a woody with Rockstar close now, though we don’t cognize what kind. To halt distributing much material? To guarantee that the leaker doesn’t get sued? Whatever the case, this is decidedly 1 of the astir unprecedented leaks successful each of video crippled history.

Earlier this year, Bloomberg also reported that the adjacent GTA would effort to beryllium much “culturally sensitive,” a subtler tonal displacement that has already go evident successful the re-release of GTA V. The caller crippled saw Rockstar region immoderate transphobic content that had antecedently been criticized by immoderate fans.

While things are moving accelerated connected the hacking front, and rumors are flying regarding imaginable scams involving the merchantability of the root code, fans are engaged trying to fig retired what is disposable successful the footage that’s already retired there. Already, determination are theories astir who plays the caller lead.

Update 1:55 p.m: Added details regarding the leaker’s shout-out to Rockstar, on with caller developments successful the story.

Update 7:10 p.m.: Added much details astir GTA 6.
