The September 2022 breach

Ninety clips of early development, and what it changed at Rockstar

In September 2022 early development clips of GTA 6 were stolen and posted online. In Bloomberg's October 2026 feature Aaron Garbut described the breach as unusually invasive and emotionally hard for the team; Rockstar tightened security and ended remote work in April 2024. Confirmed

What the footage showed

The clips showed an unfinished Vice City, including the area Rockstar has since named Stockyard. Nothing in the leaked footage is treated as confirmed on this wiki; the official trailers and screenshots are the record. Confirmed
