GTA 6 Leak Just Gave A Look At The Main Character
By BRITTANY ROSTON
In one of the biggest video game leaks ever, someone posting under the handle "teapotuberhacker" dropped more than 90 video clips from the hotly anticipated upcoming game "Grand Theft Auto VI" on GTA Forum, which Rockstar has confirmed the authenticity of. The dozens of leaked videos reveal a bunch of details about "Grand Theft Auto VI," including the identity of the main character.
The leaked content seems to confirm a previous report that the protagonist will be a Latina character, and the leak adds that her name is Lucia. In true "GTA" fashion, the clips show the character causing mayhem in the fictional world, including by robbing a restaurant, getting into a confrontation with police, and then hijacking the police cruiser to initiate a high-speed chase.
The leak does suggest that Rockstar has taken some feedback to heart and is attempting to expand its iconic game to be a bit more inclusive. Of course, fans very familiar with the game may wonder how Rockstar will manage to strike a balance between maintaining the game's crude nature while also embracing more progressive handling of its core elements.
