According to a recent leak, Grand Theft Auto 6 could be released in 2024. After quantities of speculation, rumor, and eager fans scanning every nook and cranny of Grand Theft Auto Trilogy: Definitive Edition for clues, Rockstar Games finally announced the next mainline installment of its controversial and critically successful open-world crime franchise is now in development back in February. However, few details have been released since the announcement regarding the game's progress.

The lack of information has only increased the rumors and speculation surrounding Grand Theft Auto 6, as many alleged insiders have dropped hints about when the latest GTA title could launch. While previous sources have claimed that Grand Theft Auto 6 won’t be available anytime soon, others have hinted the game could hit stores as early as 2025 - a full decade after the last mainline GTA entry was released. Other popular rumors surrounding Grand Theft Auto 6 include the game featuring multiple playable characters (including the first playable female protagonist in the history of the GTA franchise), the introduction of a Bitcoin-like cryptocurrency system, and intercontinental travel across multiple time periods.

As recently reported by Xfire, a supposed insider with ties to Rockstar Games going by the handle of Matheusvictorbr has shared potential information regarding Grand Theft Auto 6’s alleged story, setting, and playable characters. While nothing has currently been confirmed, the leak indicates Rockstar is planning to release Grand Theft Auto 6 sometime in 2024, but Matheusvictorbr remained vague about exactly when this could be. Matheusvictorbr also admits that GTA 6 is still in the early stages of development and Rockstar’s supposed release plans could change at any time.

Matheusvictorbr also shared interesting details about Grand Theft Auto 6’s possible story and main characters, which claims the game will feature a pair of twins who are separated following the death of their parents at the hands of a Brazilian drug cartel. Matheusvictorbr claims that GTA 6 will take place in modern times, with a wide range of settings including Brazil, the fan-favorite Vice City, and even Manhunt’s Cancer City - the latter of which could further cement a confirmed connection between both Rockstar-developed properties.

While these speculations would be interesting to see in the game, nothing about the upcoming Grand Theft Auto 6 aside from its existence has been officially confirmed by Rockstar. Because of this, Matheusvictorbr’s recent leak should be taken with a grain of salt until more concrete evidence surfaces. However, if Matheusvictorbr’s insider account is accurate, fans might be able to explore Grand Theft Auto 6 sooner than previously hinted.
