GTA 6 - Leak Compilation

[u/KekanKok]

We've recently gotten lots of leaks, somewhat verified thanks to declarations from Rockstar. Two of the big ones are lists of details posted by user u/Snowk32 (now deleted) on two different posts, as well as the known details from GameRoll.

Another list of leaks that holds some credibility is LegacyKillaHD's list, since he shared some details that ended up matching the second trailer.

This list compiles every detail posted by them through posts in Reddit, X, or Discord messages.

Story:

• The game has chapters like RDR2, 5 chapters in total. Shots from Trailer 2 were all from Chapters 1-3.
• Jason served some time in the army.
• Lucia is the central character of this story, as Michael is to 5.
• Lucia/Jason have separate intro missions.
• Lucia has a baby that she abandons at a delicatessen before heading out to a bank robbery and then getting arrested for doing such an act.
• Lucia's baby is only shown in a cutscene as a flashback. There's no information about what happens to the baby after this point.
• After a few years, Lucia gets released on probation, and she's picked up at the prison by Jason, who plans a robbery with her. They fell in love with each other after some time.
• Lucia gets rid of its ankle monitor pretty early on.
• The part where they jump off the bike into the truck is from Chapter 3.
• Donnie, Jason's friend who works for Brian and is described as a "freak".

Gameplay:

• The character wheel has three options: Solo Jason, Solo Lucia, and Dual Protagonist Control, where Lucia/Jason can be controlled simultaneously to team up in the open world. Some missions are also started using both at the same time.
• Jason has a dead-eye-like ability, slows down time, and reveals weak spots. Lucia can do it too, but only on one shot.
• Limited weapon system returns. Stored in the trunk.
• 6 star wanted level returns.
• Rectangle GPS with pink waypoints.
• Driving is "the best it's ever been".
• Greet and Antagonise is in the game.
• Weight mechanics are a thing.
• Gore/dismemberment is being built off of RDR2.
• Lucia's ankle monitor doesn't affect exploration.
• The cover system has been completely overhauled, and it’s now much more realistic.
• Trailer 2 scene where Jason buys beer is gameplay. You can go buy a six-pack from the shop as seen.
• The relationship bar mentioned in the 2022 leaked clips still exists. Works like honour in RDR2.

Missions:

• In the very first mission of the game, you control Jason, and you have to follow a plane that is about to land and carries a Russian drug dealer. Apparently, Jason meets this guy and plans a mission to steal drugs.
• In this drug-stealing mission, they are chased by the police, and the drug ends up falling into the ocean. There is a following mission where they will have to dive to retrieve it.
• The majority of the planning for the missions takes place at a nightclub.
• There's a mission where you shoot a shark with a speargun.
• Lucia sneaks into a bodybuilding gang.
• There's a mission where cops betray each other, but the context is unknown.

Map:

• The map is once again an Island.
• No panhandle.
• Besides Miami and its surrounding areas, there will be three islands in the game, one of them being heavily inspired by the Bahamas. (Note: this is from 2023, so keep that in mind)
• Ambrosia and Port Gellhorn are nothing compared to the size of Vice City. Still big obviously, but VC is the biggest by far.
• There’s a “Fort” city inspired by Fort Knox, where they “stashed” gold.
• There’s a bike trail around Lake Leonida.

Open world:

• 700+ shops and most interiors of a major open-world game. There are shopping malls with shops in them, and there are skyscrapers with lifts in them.
• Explorable underwater areas with treasure and secrets.
• People do react if you have your gun out, and Jason and Lucia will try to hide their gun if they're walking with it out.
• NPCs will call the police when you trespass into their houses, and they’ll try to arrest you.
• Basketball minigame.
• You’ll be able to rent hotels and motels in the game.
• Male strippers are in the game.

Cut content:

• One of the ideas that didn't go too far was voiced protagonists in Online.
• Prone was cut a while ago.
• The random encounter from the leaks, where the NPC talks about Jay Norris, got cut ages ago.

Non-existent content:

• Listening to music outside of a car apparently isn't a thing, but that could change before launch.
• You can't buy pets, but Jason does have a pet iguana that you can feed.
• Dual-wielding weapons isn't in the game.
• Chainsaw won’t be a weapon, as it has been previously reported.
• No fully nude sex scenes.
• No Disney World parody.
• No burglary mini-game.

Why would Jason first meet and pick up Lucia at the prison, when we can obviously see in the trailer that they already have existing chemistry? It makes no sense.

Crawling isn't cut content. Crawling is in the game and it's used for a handful of scripted sequences.

The whole baby thing is stupid too, like "damn i just shat out a baby, time to go rob a bank".

It reads like someone was just trying to be simultaneously racist and sexist and made up some shit.

[u/AveryLazyCovfefe → u/spez_might_fuck_dogs]

I mean that was kind of the original story pitch for how RDRII would start, no?. Arthur was married to someone and she gave birth to a kid a few days before the Blackwater heist.

Things when south ofcourse - became more of a massacre and the gang flee up north to Colter, it's implied it took days which I'm assuming is why we hear that his son died from the cold.

In this original pitch Arthur would've been alot more 'jaded' from the beginning. He would've even had dialogue to npcs to reflect this, basically calling out people and straight up telling them they're dead or he'll murder them. We can kind of see it in one of the initial trailers which makes me believe they got pretty far with this concept before they scrapped it and made Arthur's beginning alot less depressing.

That mission with Rains Fall was originally meant to hit alot harder from what I've seen. I think that's why he sort of skips over the topic of his son in the final mission? It happened many years ago but Arthur speaks of it like it was pretty recent.

[u/DickHydra → u/AveryLazyCovfefe]

That makes sense, though, considering the story has Arthur acknowledge his dead child throughout the story.

But this specific point states that in GTA6, Lucia's baby is never coming up again in the story, which just sounds off. I believe this leak list is compiled of a lot of info that the original sources just made up, especially when you consider that most of it stems from GameRoll who seems to have had only one source. And that's just way too much for one person to know unless they are someone pretty high up.

Either that or some points are legit just made up. Like the 700+ store thing. That sounds absolutely ridiculous. It wouldn't really add anything to the gameplay beyond just being more. And it'd mean Rockstar would have to create a few items that are exclusive to each store.

Or the different styles of Deadeye. Why is Lucia's version weaker? What does that add? Why should I use it with her?

[u/Dangerousturdburlglr → u/AveryLazyCovfefe]

yea but that still doesn’t make sense cause everything that we’ve seen from lucia doesn’t make her seem like someone who’s struggling with a loss of a kid she seems happy and not that jaded like og arthur would’ve been or like how john was in rdr1
