Quick answer: CyberLeek posts a ninth unauthorized GTA 6 clip showing Jason taking a pickup at a gas station, as Take-Two's subpoena fight widens.

The leaker operating as CyberLeek has posted a ninth unauthorized GTA 6 gameplay clip, this one showing protagonist Jason pulling into a gas station and stealing a pickup truck. The footage surfaced within the last week and is the latest in a campaign of raw leaks that has pushed Take-Two to expand its legal response with subpoenas targeting X, Microsoft, Discord and GitHub.

The new clip follows the pattern of its predecessors: unpolished, early-build footage that shows the game running in a state far from the final product. Jason, one of the two playable protagonists alongside Lucia, is seen pulling into a gas station before taking the truck. It is brief and rough, the kind of capture that would never make a Rockstar trailer, which is exactly why it has drawn attention. There is no HUD polish and no cinematic framing, just raw gameplay that suggests the build predates recent optimization work.

This is the ninth clip in the series, and it builds on earlier leaks that have grown bolder over time. A previous clip showed strip club footage that seemed designed to taunt Take-Two, and the leaker has continued posting despite the legal pressure. The escalation is notable because Take-Two has not just sent takedown notices; it has won court orders for subpoenas against major platforms, a step that could eventually identify whoever is behind the account.

The legal moves landed around August 19 to 21, with Take-Two seeking information from X, Microsoft, Discord and GitHub. Those platforms hold different pieces of the puzzle: Discord and GitHub could tie the account to a person, while X and Microsoft could reveal posting history and device data. For a company that has spent years keeping GTA 6 details under wraps, the leaks are a rare breach of control, and the subpoenas signal an intent to find the source rather than just scrub the clips. The court has already backed the requests, which means the platforms are now under a legal obligation to hand over whatever they hold, assuming they have not already.

For buyers, the practical takeaway is that none of this changes the release plan. GTA 6 is still set for November 19, 2026 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, with the Standard edition at $79.99 and the Ultimate at $99.99. The leaked footage comes from an early build and almost certainly does not reflect the final game's performance or polish, something worth keeping in mind when clips circulate online. We covered the earlier strip club leak and the leaker posting despite subpoenas, and this ninth clip fits the same arc.

What remains unconfirmed is whether the footage is genuine. We cannot verify the clip independently, and Rockstar has not commented on it. The account has been consistent across multiple posts, which lends some credibility, but early-build captures can be faked or staged, and the only way to settle it is for Rockstar to acknowledge it or for the leaker to be identified. The subpoena fight is the thread to watch: if Take-Two gets the data it asked for, the account's days are likely numbered, and the leaks would stop before launch.

The bigger question is what the leaks do to the marketing cycle. Rockstar has shown two trailers and released cover art and edition details, but the leaks give a rougher, unfiltered view of the game than any official material. With the launch date still about three months out, the window for more leaks before November is wide open, and the leaker shows no sign of stopping. Each new clip also complicates the narrative around the game's readiness, even though the footage almost certainly predates the final build. If the leaks keep coming at this pace, the story shifts from a marketing countdown to a race between the leaker and the subpoenas.
