This is the video that players were no longer hoping for: a real gameplay sequence of Grand Theft Auto VI has just appeared online. Posted on Vimeo, this leak comes from former Rockstar Games animator Benjamin Chue and shows motion capture footage of what appears to be a playable scene from the upcoming video game blockbuster. The authenticity of this sequence arouses as much enthusiasm as frustration, as the anticipation surrounding the game is immense.
The video, spotted on Reddit, features a helmeted character on a motorcycle and a second female character – probably Lucia, one of the protagonists – jumping from the back of a pick-up truck. A simple but significant scene, indirectly confirming Chue’s involvement in the development of GTA 6, he who has already worked on GTA IV, GTA V, Red Dead Redemption 2 and Max Payne.
Who is Benjamin Chue, the man behind the video?
Benjamin Chue is no stranger to Rockstar fans. A seasoned animator, he has collaborated on several major studio titles and recently shared his demo reel on Vimeo. Among the sequences are a few seconds from the development of GTA 6, visible in the first minutes of the video. These images were quickly spotted by the Reddit community, always on the alert on the subject.
The published content reveals raw motion capture animations. Nothing spectacular at first glance, but one detail makes all the difference: it is not a doctored montage or AI-generated visuals. “Gameplay leak”, unlike frustrating hoaxes, such as AI-generated “images” which have proliferated recently on fake accounts, comments a user named Elevatorisbest, relieved to see the authenticity of the source.
Sober but revealing images on the progress of the game
Although the extracts revealed by Chue are short, they have the merit of providing a valuable overview of the state of development of GTA 6. We see the extent of the work involved in the animation of the characters and the complexity of the movements, underlining the precision of the performance capture dear to Rockstar. “They bear witness to the path taken by the game during its long development,” underlines the initial article, highlighting the colossal effort behind this project, which has been awaited for almost a decade.
These images contrast sharply with previous leaks, often from deepfakes or speculative edits. Here, the source is clear, the setting is professional, and the content is part of a logic of involuntary, but credible, transparency.
Fans between hope, fatigue and apprehension of a new postponement
Announced for November 2026, GTA 6 has already been postponed twice. This new content, although minor, reassures part of the community about the progress of the project. But it also raises a crucial question: how much longer are players willing to wait? “It’s probably best for Rockstar to take its time, but it seems unlikely that fans will be able to stomach a third delay,” the article recalls.
Rockstar, for its part, remains silent. No official reaction has been released at this time. But the emergence of this video changes the situation: it confirms, through indirect means, that the game is moving forward – and that it does indeed exist in a playable version. A simple extract, and an entire global community holds its breath.
