A Reddit user, Pebblestar, claimed to have played an early test version of GTA 6 in 2024. The post, made from a throwaway account to maintain anonymity, has since been deleted. According to Pebblestar, they are not involved in the game’s development but had the opportunity to visit Rockstar Games’ offices for professional reasons and witness the game firsthand.
Exceptionally Realistic Game World
In the Reddit post, Pebblestar described an impressively realistic game world. Most objects in the game are reportedly physically present and interactively react with the player – smaller items, such as discarded coffee cups, are no longer mere 2D textures on the ground.
Dynamic Environment
The environment is said to respond realistically to weather changes: signposts sway in the wind, and puddles form in potholes during rain, gradually evaporating under the sun. The inhabitants of the game world are also expected to be remarkably realistic. For example, after a car accident, debris scattered on the road causes traffic jams, road workers repair the damage, and tow trucks remove damaged vehicles.
Unconfirmed Authenticity
The authenticity of leaks is often challenging to verify, and this case is no exception. Sources usually remain anonymous, and leakers rarely provide concrete evidence to support their claims. Rockstar Games is known for its strict security measures, making it highly unlikely for an outsider to access a test version of GTA 6. Consequently, the credibility of this information remains questionable.

Plausible Details
Despite the uncertainty surrounding the leak, many details shared by Pebblestar seem plausible. The initial trailers for GTA 6 have already showcased physical interactions with small objects, while Red Dead Redemption 2 featured a highly realistic weather system, making its perfection in GTA 6 a logical progression. Additionally, some of the leaked details align with Rockstar’s job postings, which mention work on destruction and advanced weather systems, lending credibility to some of the claims.
Conclusion
While the veracity of Pebblestar’s claims remains uncertain, the details provided have certainly piqued the interest of the GTA community. The described features, if accurate, could significantly enhance the gaming experience, making GTA 6one of the most immersive games yet. As always, fans should take such leaks with a grain of caution until official confirmation is provided by Rockstar Games.
