Last year’s GTA 6 leak was one of the biggest leaks in the gaming industry in terms of the damage it left in its wake. The hacker, Arion Kurtaj, was found to be an 18-year-old who was part of a much bigger group of hackers named Lapsus$. It should come as no wonder that the leak affected the entire team at Rockstar Games quite personally who were said to be working on the development of the game for almost a decade by now.
After the leaked clips went viral, Rockstar Games have since gone on to also confirm that the game is in fact under development, something they kept under wraps until the leaks went viral. Rounding up all of the information gathered from the leaks, here are the top leaks gamers must know.
1. $2 Billion And Ten Years Spent, Expected To Be Rockstar Games’ Biggest Game
By the time the game comes out, it would have been under development for well over a decade and cost Rockstar Games over $2 Billion. The game is expected to be much bigger than GTA 5 and GTA Online, with a lot more dynamic elements in play. The game is expected to be the biggest title ever to come out of Rockstar Games, given the money spent in development and the time spent as well, as the game is said to be 10 years in the making.
2. Dynamic Weather Could Change Everything In The Game, Inspired By Other Rockstar Titles
During gameplay, there are bound to be a whole lot of large-scale destruction events. These may include tornadoes and hurricanes which will affect the game’s world, destroying a whole lot of property. How this might affect property owned by players is anybody’s guess for now. Increasingly changing weather conditions might affect player health as was the case with players in Red Dead Redemption 2. When the cold climate hits in Red Dead Redemption 2 affects players’ and animals’ health which could inspire elements in GTA 6 as well.
3. Dynamic Maps Could Extend Open-World Boundaries, Evolving Maps Bigger Than GTA 5 Maps
The game is set to feature a lot of dynamic maps that evolve and build over time, leading to twice or thrice the size of the map in GTA 5 and GTA Online. The map found in the multiplayer format, GTA Online, adds a lot of locations to the same map found in GTA 5, such as the Casino and a lot of offices and warehouses. In a similar fashion, there might be locations and buildings under construction opening up gates in the GTA 6 maps, constantly adding to the size of the map.
GTA 5 and GTA Online already had a massive map that featured offices, warehouses, cargo holds and a whole lot of spots for counterfeit businesses.
4. GTA 6 All Set to End in a Blaze of Fire, à la Bonnie and Clyde
Going by the world seen in the leaked clips, the main area of the map might be in Miami Florida with playable characters that take inspiration from Bonnie and Clyde. Two playable characters were seen in the leaked clips, who are said to end the main campaign in a blaze of gunfire, highly inspired by Bonnie and Clyde. There will also be parts of Cuba featured in the game, that is said to feature bank robbing and drug trade.
GTA 5 featured 3 main characters with an interesting ending to the main campaign story, and if this leaked info is anything to go by, GTA 6, with the rumored two characters might just feature an even better ending with a shootout featuring tanks, jets and many more with an increased wanted level in the game as explained below.
5. Robust and Tactical Cops, Increased Wanted Levels to Feature in GTA 6
Police features a very robust and tactical, with cops splitting into two teams to surround the player. Cops are said to give players enough time to surrender before using tear gas and launching grenades. Taking inspiration from movies, SWAT teams might be seen walking slowly behind vans covering each other. The Wanted level is also said to go from 5 stars as seen in GTA 5 and GTA Online to 6 stars in GTA 6 where even jets might come into play to subdue or kill players.
The leaks were said to have affected the entire team and the CEO of Rockstar Games quite personally. The team working on GTA 6 is believed to be working hard on the game just as they were before the leaked clips went viral and expected to announce the game when they feel the time is right.
The GTA 6 leaks may have put a dent in the surprise factor of the game but there is bound to be a whole lot of information that might still shock the gaming community when an official announcement is made.
