The unauthorized release of Grand Theft Auto VI gameplay footage has continued into its fifth day, with a seventh clip appearing online. The purported leaker, operating under the alias Cyberleeks, has also begun soliciting sponsorships for future leaks, with initial meeting costs set at approximately $165,000 in cryptocurrency.
The latest leaked video showcases protagonist Jason Duval engaging in criminal activities, including robbing a gas station and a convenience store. During a chase sequence, Jason's car is involved in a slow-motion collision with a flatbed truck on a bridge before the clip abruptly ends as he enters a strip club. The footage also displays in-game mechanics such as refueling and vehicle repair costs.
Despite efforts by Rockstar Games and parent company Take-Two Interactive to identify and stop the source of the leaks, the releases have persisted. Take-Two has reportedly obtained subpoenas for records from Microsoft and Discord in an attempt to trace the breach. While the identity of the leaker remains unknown, the companies are proceeding with a planned "extended" look at Grand Theft Auto VI scheduled for August 27.
Xbox CTO Scott Van Vliet confirmed on Twitter that Microsoft is collaborating with Take-Two and Rockstar Games to protect intellectual property. Meanwhile, the Cyberleeks website has introduced a section for potential advertisers, stating that gambling and adult content are permissible, but scams are not. The site claims that potential advertisers can secure a meeting for around $165,000.
