@GTAVI_Countdown, which has more than 183,000 followers at the time of writing, continues to share news, rumors, speculation and leaks GTA 6 and Rockstar Games.

In September, the account re-posted details from YouTuber LegacyKillaHD about rumors about what to expect from Story Mode GTA 6 along with some gameplay features.

These include: the character Lucia, who is at the center of the story; separate introductory missions for Lucia and Jason; a more grounded story about criminals figuring things out and family problems; a shorter story than Red Dead Redemption 2 (RDR2); plus lots of side content and Fast and Furious inspired missions like a vault heist.

Additional leaks include details on corrupt cop characters, various locations and modes, and the inclusion of many gameplay elements from RDR2.

This is all just speculation as nothing has been publicly confirmed by Rockstar.

And yet @GTAVI_Countdown claims that these leaks are “pretty much confirmed as we just received a DMCA takedown from Rockstar's parent company Take-Two.”

DMCA is the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, passed in 1998 to amend American copyright law and regulate parts of the relationship between copyright and the Internet.

It appears that the same leaks were discussed in a video on YouTube by Cyber ​​Boi, which was also reportedly removed by Take-Two for copyright infringement and his channel was hit with a strike.

Cyber ​​Boi claims that any accounts that re-shared these leaks will be targeted by Take-Two.

Rockstar Games' parent company Take-Two confirmed this in a recent annual report GTA 6 is currently on track for release in fall 2025.

The document was released on the same day of a shareholders meeting where it was discussed in crucial detail that bosses are still planning for the game to come out as planned.

Rockstar has released the first and so far only trailer GTA 6 in December 2023 and confirmed that the game would be released sometime in 2025.

Ahead of an earnings release in May, Take-Two narrowed the release window to fall 2025, and ahead of its most recent earnings release in August, the company confirmed that the release was on track.

And that also applies a month and a half later, as it says in the annual report GTA 6 is still planned for autumn 2025 – twice.

Rockstar recently hinted that it may be launching its marketing campaign for the game soon, as it is looking for a “screenshot capture artist” to “capture footage of gameplay for use in marketing campaigns and in-game.”
