It’s been eight years since the launch ofGrand Theft Auto 5, and so fans are understandably growing anxious forGrand Theft Auto 6. Unfortunately, recent leaks suggest that theGrand Theft Auto 6release date is still years away, with fans cautioned that they likely won’t get to play the game until sometime in 2024 or 2025. In the meantime, speculation, leaks, and rumors will continue to run wild, with some more reliable than others.
Leaker Tom Henderson, who is perhaps best known for leaking information onCall of DutyandBattlefield, has recently set his sights onGrand Theft Auto 6leaks, teasing fans what they can expect from the upcoming game. Henderson has proven to be a reliable source of information in the past, and recently Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier backed up some of his claims, lending Henderson added legitimacy. Even so, fans should always take information like this with a grain of salt.

Most recently, Henderson created aGrand Theft Auto 6drawing, which he has described as a “concept of a concept.” He denied that the drawing is based on actualGrand Theft Auto 6concept art, but that it was created using existing assets. Henderson has previouslyteasedBattlefield 6features using drawings, and the claims made with those turned out to be true, so fans have been paying close attention to hisGTA 6drawing.
There are a few interesting details that fans can glean from the drawing. For one, it appears to back up previous claims thatGrand Theft Auto 6will be set in Vice City. For years, the rumors have been fairly consistent that Vice City is the next destination for theGrand Theft Autofranchise, which makes sense asGrand Theft Auto 4was set in Liberty City andGTA 5was set in Los Santos.
The drawing also includes a female character holding a gun, which is likely in reference to the rumored female protagonist. According to various leaks,Grand Theft Auto 6will have a female protagonistas one of two main characters that will be playable in the game. Similarly to the game’s rumored Vice City setting, a female playable character has been a fairly consistent rumor when it comes toGrand Theft Auto 6.
Another detail that fans will notice about Henderson’s drawing is the character flying around in a jetpack.Grand Theft Auto: San Andreasfeatured a jetpackthat players could use to fly around the world map, and while one has been hinted at forGrand Theft Auto 5, it has yet to be added or discovered (one is available to use in aGrand Theft Auto OnlineHeist, however). Henderson later posted a GIF on Twitter of someone using a jetpack, perhaps further teasing that the unique vehicle option will return inGTA 6. In that same tweet, Henderson cautioned that he won’t be able to regularly dropGrand Theft Auto 6leaks and said it could be another year before he has anything else to share.
As always, fans should treat this information with a grain of salt, but Henderson has proven to be a reliable source in the past. With theGrand Theft Auto 6release datestill likely years away, it will be some time before fans know whether or not there was every any truth to these leaks, but it will be interesting to find out one way or another.
Grand Theft Auto 6is rumored to be in development.
