The primary outlets for the recent wave of Grand Theft Auto 6 leaks, the Cyberleek website and its associated Telegram channel, have both gone offline. The Cyberleek website is no longer accessible, and its Telegram channel displays a message stating "This channel is unavailable due to copyright infringement." While Rockstar Games has not officially commented on these developments, the shutdown suggests that the company's legal actions against the leakers may be proving effective.
Cyberleek began disseminating new footage of Grand Theft Auto 6 on August 18. The leaked content, while not revealing significant plot spoilers, has confirmed the return of the six-star Wanted system and offered glimpses of the game's expansive map. This latest series of leaks has reportedly caused considerable frustration at Rockstar Games. Following a major leak incident in 2024, the studio had previously mandated that all developers return to the office as a security precaution, only for the game to be leaked again.
Take-Two Interactive, Rockstar's parent company, had previously issued subpoenas to Microsoft and Discord in an effort to identify the individuals responsible for leaking Grand Theft Auto 6 through Cyberleek. These actions appear to have provided Take-Two with the necessary information to compel the takedown of Cyberleek's online presence. Although a small amount of additional footage has surfaced recently, the cessation of activity from the main leak sources suggests that further leaks are unlikely.
Despite these leaks, Grand Theft Auto 6 is still scheduled for release on November 19. Players will get their first official look at gameplay during a special Netflix showcase on August 27.
