Is this the end of the GTA 6 leaks? Take-Two's legal crusade appears to shut down the hubs behind them

By Source Eurogamer.net Published

Take-Two Interactive has successfully forced the CyberLeek website and associated Telegram channel offline as part of an ongoing legal effort to stop unauthorized leaks of Grand Theft Auto 6.

Key Points

  • Take-Two Interactive filed subpoenas against Microsoft and Discord to identify the individuals behind the CyberLeek persona.
  • Despite the removal of primary leak hubs, a seventh clip of unreleased GTA 6 gameplay has reportedly surfaced on Reddit.
  • The CyberLeek group allegedly used the leaks to promote a cryptocurrency scheme involving a $CYBERLEEK meme coin.
  • Grand Theft Auto 6 remains scheduled for a November 19, 2026, release on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S.

Why it Matters

These leaks highlight the significant security challenges major publishers face when protecting highly anticipated intellectual property from bad actors. While Take-Two maintains that the incident will not impact long-term sales, the situation underscores the growing intersection between gaming leaks and illicit financial schemes.
