Major GTA 6 leak reportedly comes from within Rockstar – but be prepared for disappointment

Without a shadow of a doubt, the biggest game release of 2025 will be Grand Theft Auto VI. We don't yet have a release date, but its widely expected to be available in the second half of the year.

That means you can fully expect the rumours and leaks to ramp up in the coming months. Indeed, they've already started.

An image of what is claimed to be GTA 6 running on a PC was posted online a couple of days ago, and what makes it especially unusual is that it was purportedly taken from within Rockstar's own office.

Reddit user JustLovett0 (via Eurogamer) claimed that the photo was snapped by someone who worked at Rockstar for a few months. It was taken down this morning by moderators as it breached the site's guidelines, but T3 has seen it and it looks reasonably genuine.

We won't be republishing it here out of respect for Rockstar, but can tell you that it showed a monitor on a desk seemingly running the game. The screen shows a woman (possibly one of the lead characters, Lucia) looking at what seems to be a storage depot. It's a sunny day and her shadow falls across a small wall.

To be honest, it's nothing special. And even the original poster claims that the photo was taken in 2021, so it's likely that a lot has changed in the game since.

Still, it's an indication that the floodgates may soon open. Hopefully, it'll prompt Rockstar into making efforts to control the narrative itself, and maybe release a second teaser or even full trailer soon.

A full release date wouldn't go amiss neither. We'll keep you informed with anything else we find out in the meantime, of course.
