There is rising concern over potential leaks of Grand Theft Auto 6, as a group named 'CyberLeek' has hinted at releasing a complete version, featuring the entire story mode and end credits.

According to IGN, CyberLeek has conditioned the release on its digital currency achieving a $30 million market value. The group's coin value climbed from $3.8 million to $5.7 million following this announcement on social media.

The threat from CyberLeek suggests an opportunity for Take-Two Interactive: issuing physical copies and making a public apology could prevent the leak. The group seemed confident in predicting Take-Two's decision on the matter.

This situation follows an earlier leak involving 24 minutes of gameplay, including cutscenes and story elements. The group had previously shared this material and demanded Rockstar reevaluate its digital-only approach.

While the details and origin of the game build held by CyberLeek remain undisclosed, they have issued warnings to other companies, indicating potential risk of similar breaches.

In response, Take-Two has taken legal measures by filing subpoenas with entities like Microsoft and Discord. This move aims to identify those responsible for the game leaks.

Legal proceedings also involved a take-down request sent to Discord, concerning a post with unauthorized gameplay footage.

Rockstar has expressed its disappointment over the early exposure, acknowledging the negative impact on the game experience. They hope players will be patient until its official release on November 19.
