GTA 6 (Rockstar Games) Trailer: Gamers have been bombarded with AI-generated GTA 6 trailers lately. Many of them have fooled even die-hard fans. But now, the excitement is real. Genuine GTA 6 gameplay clips have emerged online offering a rare glimpse into Rockstar Games’ highly anticipated project.
Who leaked the GTA 6 trailer?
The source appears to be Benjamin Chue, a former Rockstar animator known for his work on ‘Red Dead Redemption 2’ and ‘Max Payne 3’. Two months ago, he uploaded a demo reel on Vimeo showcasing his animation skills. The video has since been deleted but mirrors and discussions about it continue to circulate on Reddit.

While the reel was meant to showcase Chue’s talent, gamers quickly noticed something else: unmistakable GTA 6 content hidden in the first 19 seconds.
What’s in the GTA 6 trailer?
The first segment shows a man getting on and off a bike with surprisingly smooth animations. A “Lom Bikes” logo is visible hinting at a public bike system that might appear in Vice City, the game’s new playground.
Fans are now speculating that non-motorised travel could become a fun new way to explore the city.
The second clip features a female character exiting a monster truck. She jumps from the truck bed. Her movements closely resemble Lucia, a character already teased in official GTA 6 trailers. This scene suggests that players may be able to interact with similar vehicles when the game releases.
Rockstar Games responds to GTA 6 trailer leak
Rockstar Games is popular for guarding its projects fiercely. In 2022 the company went after a hacker who obtained early GTA 6 clips. Even now, it enforces strict NDAs for employees to prevent leaks.
Recently over 30 staffers were reportedly fired for allegedly sharing confidential information.
Given this very history, the appearance of Chue’s demo reel is especially surprising. Was it an intentional showcase of his skills? Or an accidental slip? Nobody knows.
Some fans believe that Chue (a veteran artist) may have had permission. But the quick removal of the video fuels speculation that Rockstar wasn’t happy about it.
