GTA 6 is coming this year, and the date has already been announced by Rockstar Games as November 19, 2026. The rumours and leaks related to the game have been flooding the internet. Whether it is about a release delay or a surprise new third playable character in the game, we have it all via the leaks. Now, one of the most concerning leaks (according to the internet, not me lads, keep me out of it) has just come out.
According to a reliable source (I think the person’s name is Reliable Source), GTA 6 is all set to get a digital-only release on November 19, 2026. It is being said that the disc edition of the game will be launched sometime in 2027, after a gap of six to eight months. Reason cited for the same is that Rockstar wants to preserve the story of the game (bye bye logic and screen recording feature of our beloved PS5) as much as it can keep the gamers away from spoilers and early gameplay footage. The leaker has also suggested that we will get to know some more details about GTA 6 in February 2026 officially from Rockstar.
Will GTA 6 Physical Edition Really Get Launched Late?
See, there is no big deal if Rockstar does that. Why, because Rockstar has a monopoly for god’s sake, and they can use it the way they want. Until now, Rockstar has given multiple reasons for the delay of the game. But I am done with these leaks floating around the internet with no concrete proof. And this is not happening for the first time, let’s discuss it in detail moving forward.
Why Am I Fed Up With GTA 6 Leaks?
Let’s start the roast session with the latest one; the logic given in the leak is as weak as someone claiming Sergio Ramos is a better defender than Paulo Maldini. The footage and gameplay of GTA 6 can be recorded in the case of the digital edition as well. As for the spoilers, who will stop the gods sitting on Reddit, X, and Discord, from revealing everything, I bet Rockstar can’t.
Furthermore, these days, everyone is a Rockstar Insider, or everyone has a mole in Rockstar who, I don’t know how, is giving all the details about the game. As soon as people on the internet started seeing that anything in the name of GTA 6 leaks is getting a lot of traction, the accounts have gone bonkers and are posting random stuff covered in a golden foil named ‘LEAKS’.
There are accounts sharing AI-generated clips and videos of GTA VI, claiming them as official. Now, what’s concerning is that those who are not well-versed with the capabilities of AI believe that stuff. And some of the accounts have stooped to a level so low (where will you go with that engagement) that they are making self-created notes like internal memos from Rockstar, revealing everything about the game (which is not true by the way). Most of the leaks related to the game at this point in time are fan-made assumptions.
On A Concluding Note
There are a lot of gamers, including me, who are eagerly waiting for the game, and leaks matter to us. Now, expecting that all the leaks related to the game will stand true is like expecting Kylian Mbappe to leave Real Madrid and join Barcelona (no chance, I mean). But yes, one thing which I would like to tell you is that most of the leaks these days are nothing but tools for farming views, likes, and engagement.
Even if you open the comments, you will find the genuine fans asking these accounts to put a stop on all the misinformation. So, I’ll only ask you to stop believing each one of them and try finding logic behind the same before engaging with it. Because the way things are moving forward, no wonder we will soon get to see people claiming that GTA 6’s main protagonist Jason, is the grandson of Tommy Vercetti from GTA Vice City (And I’ll not be surprised if it has happened already).
