GTA 6: New Leaks & Rumors You Simply Can’t Miss

Lucia & Jason: Dual Protagonists Confirmed : GTA 6 will reportedly follow two central characters - Lucia and Jason - inspired by Bonnie and Clyde. The story focuses on their rise through the criminal underworld in Vice City, with emotional tension and dynamic storytelling. Lucia marks the first playable female lead in a mainline GTA game, adding new layers to the narrative. 

Massive Evolving Map Across Leonida : Leaks confirm that GTA 6’s world is set in Leonida, a fictional state based on Florida. It includes Vice City, rural counties, Everglade-like swamps, highways, and more. Rockstar may implement a live-service map expansion system, allowing new cities, islands, or regions to be added over time. 

Gameplay Features: Realism Turned Up : Multiple leaks suggest Rockstar is doubling down on realism. Features like a 6-star wanted level, weight changes based on character habits, adaptive NPC reactions, and destructible cover systems are returning or being upgraded. Underwater exploration, more complex stealth mechanics, and a more reactive law enforcement system will reshape how players approach missions and free roam chaos.

Enterable Interiors & NPC Ecosystem : Rumors highlight over 700 enterable buildings, including gas stations, malls, pawn shops, and bars. Interiors are said to change over time based on events, seasons, or player actions. AI NPCs follow daily schedules adding depth and immersion. Rockstar's emphasis on a living city means players will encounter believable routines, dynamic traffic behavior, and random street-level interactions.

Graphics Debate: 30fps vs 60fps : Recent speculation points to GTA 6 launching at 30fps on base consoles, with a 60fps mode possible on PS5 Pro or high-end PCs. Developers reportedly chose lower frame rates to deliver more detailed visual environments—better lighting, weather, crowds, and destructible terrain. 

Release Date: Delay to Late 2026? GTA 6 was officially slated for Fall 2025, but internal sources now suggest a new timeline: May or even September 2026. The game’s massive scale, evolving features, and Rockstar’s perfectionist quality standards are cited as reasons for delay. Rockstar is avoiding a Cyberpunk-like launch failure and reportedly willing to take more time to polish the final experience.

Twitch Integrations & Pre-Launch Hype : Ahead of release, Rockstar is reportedly collaborating with Twitch for GTA 6 Drops—free in-game items unlocked via live streams. There’s talk of exclusive content for GTA Online tied to viewer engagement. Twitch streamers will host preview sessions, and custom roleplay servers may launch even before the game’s full release.
