GTA 6 Leaks Are Being Taken Down
On September 18, a member of the GTAForums community posted more than 50 minutes of video recorded from an in-development version of Grand Theft Auto 6. The leaks revealed several substantial unannounced details from the highly-anticipated Grand Theft Auto sequel. Publisher Take-Two aggressively targeted leaked Grand Theft Auto 6 material, but as is often the case online when something goes viral, it's difficult to stomp out every fire.
Somehow, likely due to the sheer amount of leaked Grand Theft Auto 6 content, some leak-focused communities were able to continue sharing material without receiving copyright strikes. The GTA6 subreddit is one such community, though that appears to have ended after a new leak hit the community this past week. Moderators for the GTA6 subreddit have posted an announcement saying that it is locking the community down as Reddit responds to "lots of copyright strikes."
Going forward, the GTA6 community says that no leaks will be allowed to be posted. That includes links directly posted on the subreddit as well as linking out to other sources of leaked Grand Theft Auto 6 content. Apparently, Reddit has threatened to shut down the community entirely if it continues to be a problem. It's safe to assume Reddit isn't happy with the number of takedown notices Take-Two sent about the community and is going to extreme measures.
Take-Two's response is more than understandable. Video game companies aggressively target leaked materials for upcoming games, and Grand Theft Auto 6 has barely even been announced. Having so much of the game already shown online in a way that's not intentional can lead to incredibly costly consequences, with many game developers' careers on the line. Of course, it's also understandable that Grand Theft Auto fans would take the opportunity to see whatever they can for a game they're excited for, too.
Even if Take-Two is aggressively pursuing leaks online, there's still sure to be plenty of information shared about Grand Theft Auto 6 leading up to more of the game being revealed. The game's popularity leads to that kind of environment. An official unveiling of Grand Theft Auto 6 is likely still some time off, however. Fans will hopefully remain patient in the meantime.
