The person or group behind the GTA 6 leaks is back, and the pattern hasn’t changed: new unauthorized footage, a poll on the leaker’s own website, and a cryptocurrency target attached to everything. Cyberleek has now followed through on the promised “Lucia closeup 4k” video and immediately moved the goalposts, tying further releases to memecoin market cap milestones between $5 million and $25 million.
A daily leak – if the coin cooperates
Cyberleek has threatened to put out a new unauthorized GTA 6 gameplay video every single day, on the condition that those market cap targets get hit. The problem for that plan is the coin itself: after spiking to $8.4 million on October 11 while people pushed for the latest video, the Cyberleek memecoin has crashed back down to roughly $2.5 million. A market cap is simply the total dollar value of all tokens currently in circulation, and at this level the stated targets look a long way off.
Fans have spent the past week openly telling people not to put money into the coin at all, pointing at what happened in August. Analysis of cryptocurrency transactions from late August indicated the leaker had “cashed out” for around $270,000. Every video Cyberleek posts directs viewers to a website where they can pay to vote on which leak comes next – and another poll is reportedly live right now, which suggests more footage is queued up.
The naked Lucia video and why people suspect a dev build
Cyberleek had previously promised gameplay showing Lucia fully naked if the memecoin reached $4 million. That number was hit over the weekend, and the video reportedly delivered exactly that. But a growing number of people think the footage doesn’t represent GTA 6 as it will actually play at launch, and that Cyberleek is using a developer build or cheats.
The arguments behind that suspicion:
- In an earlier leak, a tank was spawned into the game world – something that points to access to a dev menu of some kind.
- Across two leaked videos allegedly showing both Jason and Lucia fully naked, NPCs in the world don’t react to it in any way.
One alternative theory is that this state exists legitimately because at least one mission puts both characters in that situation – a nudist resort has been floated as a possibility. For now that’s pure speculation, and there’s no confirmation that GTA 6 officially features either character naked at any point. What the game will and won’t contain is laid out in more detail in the PEGI rating breakdown.
The demands aimed at Rockstar and Take-Two
Over the past week Cyberleek also escalated the pressure on Rockstar and parent company Take-Two, threatening to release a full playthrough of the game’s story unless the publisher ships GTA 6 on disc and issues a public apology – and unless the memecoin hits $30 million. That last condition is why almost nobody reads this as a campaign for physical media; it reads as a way to pump a cryptocurrency. We covered that ultimatum in detail when Cyberleek went further and threatened a playable build.
The current wave started last week with a 24-minute gameplay video featuring cutscenes, story beats, playable characters Jason and Lucia naked (full-frontal in Jason’s case) and a first-person camera – the longest leak so far. It arrived after Cyberleek went quiet following the high-profile August leaks that triggered an investigation from Take-Two, which issued subpoenas to companies including Discord while hunting for whoever is responsible.
What it means for you
It’s still unclear how the footage – or any build it may come from – got past Rockstar’s famously tight security, and this week’s developments suggest Cyberleek is still at large and unbothered by the threat of legal action. Whether anyone is ever caught may come down to how successful Take-Two’s lawyers and the relevant authorities are at forcing social networks or crypto exchanges to hand over personal details.
For players, the practical takeaway is spoiler management. Rockstar addressed the leaks back in August, calling the situation “heartbreaking” for its development team and “unfortunate” for fans, and admitted the experience it intended “may now be impacted by some spoilers” – while reiterating the launch date of November 19. With release a little over a month out, the leaked videos are also not a reliable preview of the final game if a dev menu or cheats are involved.

FAQ
A video billed as a “Lucia closeup 4k” clip, following through on an earlier threat. It came after an unauthorized video showing Lucia fully naked, which was unlocked when the leaker’s memecoin passed a $4 million market cap.
Cyberleek has threatened exactly that, but only if memecoin market cap targets ranging from $5 million to $25 million are met. The coin has crashed to around $2.5 million, so those conditions are currently far from being reached.
Not necessarily. Several signs – a tank spawned into the world in an earlier leak and NPCs completely ignoring the naked characters – have led many to believe a developer build or cheats are involved, meaning the footage may not reflect the retail game.
The leaker threatened to release a full playthrough of the story unless Rockstar and Take-Two ship GTA 6 on disc and publish a public apology, and unless the memecoin reaches a $30 million market cap.
No. Rockstar reiterated the previously confirmed launch date of November 19 when it addressed the leaks in August, acknowledging that some spoilers may affect the intended experience.
