GTA 6 Leaks Hint at Car Trunk Loadouts and Maintenance Mechanics

Grand Theft Auto 6 gameplay has reportedly leaked online, offering an unsanctioned look at trunk-based weapon storage and vehicle maintenance ahead of an official Netflix reveal scheduled for August 27, 2026. It seems keeping a lid on the most anticipated game of the decade is about as easy as carrying soup in a net.

Until now, the game’s marketing has operated on a strict, look-but-don't-touch basis, carefully avoiding in-game user interfaces or raw mechanics. According to reports, this sudden leak was uploaded by a disgruntled fan or group protesting the lack of a physical disc version of the game. It is a striking way to file a complaint—comparable to setting fire to the library because you don't like the new digital catalog.

The leaked clips reportedly focus on surprisingly granular details, showing players having to maintain their vehicles to keep them operational, alongside a trunk-based loadout system. Another video reportedly shows protagonist Jason shooting hoops in a basketball mini-game to raise a "focus" stat. This isn't the first time the title's pre-launch window has been rocky; previously, former Rockstar devs urged fans not to boycott the game over studio policy disputes.

The details

• Reported mechanics: Car trunk loadouts, vehicle maintenance, and a basketball mini-game that raises a "focus" stat
• Leaker motivation: Reportedly a protest against the absence of a physical disc version
• Official reveal: Scheduled via Netflix on August 27, 2026

Whether keeping a virtual sedan running ends up feeling like an immersive detail or a second job remains to be seen, but for now, the security gates are wide open.
