GTA 6 Leaks: Animator's Demo Reel Sparks Buzz
1 Dec
Summary
- Former Rockstar animator's deleted demo reel showed GTA 6 clips.
- Clips featured character animations and potential in-game features.
- Rockstar Games strictly guards its projects, making leaks surprising.
Excitement for Grand Theft Auto VI has surged following the online appearance of previously unseen gameplay clips. These glimpses into Rockstar Games' highly anticipated title seem to have originated from a demo reel uploaded by Benjamin Chue, a former animator with credits on 'Red Dead Redemption 2' and 'Max Payne 3'. The deleted video contained unmistakable GTA 6 content within its initial seconds, offering players a preview of the game's potential mechanics.
The revealed segments showcased fluid character animations, including a man mounting and dismounting a bicycle with a visible 'Lom Bikes' logo, fueling speculation about a public bike system in Vice City. Another clip featured a female character exiting a monster truck, with movements resembling the officially teased character Lucia, suggesting interactions with various vehicles.
Rockstar Games maintains a reputation for fiercely protecting its projects, enforcing strict non-disclosure agreements and even reportedly firing employees for sharing confidential information. The emergence of Chue's demo reel, therefore, stands out as exceptionally unusual. Whether it was an intentional reveal or an accidental leak remains a mystery, though the reel's swift deletion suggests it may have been published without Rockstar's full approval.
