In a stunning leak that has taken over social media, reports indicate that Aaron Garbut, the son of a developer, has leaked content from GTA 6. Screenshots and a brief clip were shared, allegedly coming from a friend of Garbut’s son. This could spell trouble for Garbut, who has been with Rockstar North since 1996.
However, many doubt the authenticity of the leak. As the official trailer is set to be revealed in just two days, there is a flurry of ‘fake leakers’ attempting to spread their own content across social media. Brace yourself for a flood of AI-generated and Photoshopped material, as every leaker claims to have exclusive GTA 6 content.

If content is being ordered to be taken down, it’s probably legitimate. Following the leak’s appearance on social media, Rockstar Games began issuing takedown notices and DMCA claims against the clip. It’s a brief clip with a free-moving camera scanning an area that resembles GTA 5’s Los Santos. However, this could very well be our first glimpse at GTA 6’s map, which is speculated to be Vice City.
At the time of this clip’s leak, screenshots of a conversation also surfaced. The conversation reportedly occurred with ‘a friend’ of Aaron Garbut’s son, and made several claims about GTA 6:
- It features a map ‘twice the size’ of San Andreas in GTA 5
- ‘70% of all buildings’ are said to be enterable
- The game is planned for a ‘Fall 2024’ release, assuming ‘there are no delays’
These details align with previous leaks, leading many to believe this leak is authentic.
When Is GTA 6 Being Revealed?
Rockstar Games has confirmed that the first trailer for GTA 6 will be revealed on Tuesday, December 5 at 9 AM EDT. This will provide the first official look at the game, which has been in development for years.

Expectations for GTA 6 are extremely high, with millions of gamers eagerly anticipating what could be the best game of all time.
