More GTA 6 leaks reveal new details: Cloning keys, combat changes, random bird deaths
The latest purported GTA 6 gameplay videos show Jason committing more senseless murder, and reveal even more gameplay systems.

Two legit-looking Grand Theft Auto 6 video clips were posted online yesterday by a person or group going by "Cyberleek," and now the same leaker has posted another two clips and the DMCA takedown notices are flying once again.
The first of the new clips shows a player stealing a cop's motorcycle, driving it into a river, and then casually murdering the inhabitants of an encampment under a freeway. The other clip shows a nighttime raid on an "Allied Crystal" refinery in which the player uses a taser to take out site security before jacking a truck. Like in the other clips, the player is controlling GTA 6's male lead, Jason.
Yesterday, we catalogued 15 interesting details from the first two clips, including a fuel meter and a possible morality system. These new clips have given us more to chew on, and we've collected more notable details from them below.
The leaker responsible for sharing these videos has promised to continue posting clips, so we may well be back with more new details tomorrow. Stay vigilant, though: Alongside these legit-looking (but unconfirmed) leaks, there are also what appear to be AI-generated fakes out there, a problem which will probably only worsen until Rockstar finally hits us with the official reveal, which is scheduled for next Thursday, August 27. The studio has not commented on the source or legitimacy of the leaked videos.
When Jason gets close to a car that's not his, there's an option to "Smash Window" (the traditional GTA car-stealing move) or to "Clone Key," which is new. That'd allow players to more quietly steal cars, though it's not shown in the leaked video how it works.
In the clip taken during nighttime, we see Jason steal and use a taser gun. This is our first look at what might be a big change to GTA's combat—the aiming reticle stays on screen at all times while Jason has the gun equipped, ready to fire seemingly without aiming first. Does this mean you can hipfire? Maybe Rockstar wants this GTA to feel genuinely snappy as a cover shooter. If that's the case, maybe sprinting won't require mashing a button anymore.
GTA 5 let you tap a button to make a comment to strangers, but you never really knew what sort of greeting it would be. Something pleasant? Something rude? Probably something rude. The leaked video shows Jason approaching some NPCs under a bridge, and the player can choose to "greet" them or "taunt" them, more in line with the system from RDR2 or Bully. (In the leaked video, the player chooses to stab them to death.)
