The Leaked GTA 6 Trailer: Who’s to Blame?

The highly anticipated GTA 6 trailer was leaked ahead of schedule, leaving fans wondering who was responsible for the leak. Rockstar Games had planned to release the trailer on December 5, 2023, but due to the leak, they were forced to release it a day early on December 4.

An X account named @Gta6trailerleak on Twitter was identified as the source of the leak of the first GTA 6 trailer. However, this account has since been suspended by Twitter.

Rather than let the situation escalate, Rockstar Games addressed the leak and urged viewers to watch the official trailer on YouTube.

Soon after the leak, Rockstar Games released the official “GTA 6 (Grand Theft Auto VI) Official Reveal Trailer” on their YouTube channel.

A Setback for Rockstar Games

This recent leak comes as a disappointment for Rockstar Games, especially following the massive September 2022 leak that revealed numerous details and gameplay footage for GTA 6. The developers at Rockstar Games were looking forward to watching the trailer with the rest of the world on December 5.
