Brief GTA 6 Animations Surface in Ex-Rockstar Animator’s Reel Before Being Pulled

Analysts who reviewed mirrored copies judge the short work-in-progress clips authentic, highlighting prototype bike rental plus Lucia truck moves.

Overview

  • A two-minute demo reel attributed to former Rockstar animator Benjamin Chue briefly appeared on Vimeo before removal, with reuploads circulating on social platforms.
  • The opening seconds show a character undocking and returning a LomBike rental bicycle and a separate sequence of a female character, likely Lucia, dismounting from a pickup truck.
  • Multiple outlets describe the footage as early prototype or cutscene-focused animation rather than polished gameplay, cautioning that final implementation may differ.
  • Reporters note this is the first credible new GTA 6 material since the 2022 breach, arriving as AI-generated fakes complicate independent verification.
  • Rockstar’s current plan targets a November 19, 2026 launch on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, with PC expected later according to prior reporting.
