How we label a fact
- Confirmed: stated by Rockstar Games itself or shown in an official trailer. We link the Rockstar page or give the trailer timestamp.
- Reported: from established outlets, not yet confirmed by Rockstar.
- Rumour: leaks and unofficial claims. Treat as speculation.
- Debunked: a claim that an official source or later evidence has disproved.
What counts as confirmed for GTA 6?
Only what Rockstar Games has said in its own channels or shown in an official trailer. Press reports and leaks stay out of that list until Rockstar confirms them.
What is the difference between a rumour and a debunked leak?
A rumour is unconfirmed and may still turn out true. A debunked leak has been disproved by an official source or by later evidence, and the entry says which.
How often is the tracker updated?
Each fact carries its own last-checked date, and the page date moves with the newest change. Facts that have not been re-checked for 30 days are queued for review.
Can I cite this page?
Yes. Each fact has a permanent anchor and a short citation text under "Cite this". Please link the specific fact, not just the page.
