Take-Two started filing takedown requests of 'GTA VI' leaked footage

Earlier this week, footage of Grand Theft Auto VI started to show up online. A user on the GTA Forums posted a 3GB file full of 90 videos of GTA VI footage. It's not clear how the footage was obtained, but the "teapotuberhacker" poster says they are behind the unrelated Uber hack. If that's true, then they're connected to Lapsus$. Either way, they claim that they may "leak more data soon," including GTA V and GTA VI source code, assets, and testing builds.

Rockstar Games owner Take-Two has started filing takedown requests for leaked footage hosted on YouTube. Many remain online, though. Some of the videos show a new female playable character, which has been talked about earlier in the year. GTA VI is expected to get a female protagonist influenced by Bonnie and Clyde. The game is still at least two years away, and this leak shows footage that's from early, unfinished builds and testing of some parts of the game.
