15 details from the new GTA 6 leaks, including a possible morality system and stamina meter

A pair of clips allegedly showcasing gameplay footage from Grand Theft Auto 6 and images of the in-game map of Leonida, inspired by Florida, have surfaced online. Rockstar has not confirmed the legitimacy of these clips, which may be from an earlier version of the game. The gameplay appears ordinary, resembling scenes from a tester rather than promotional trailers. Players will encounter a new identification system used by law enforcement, categorizing them based on clothing, facial or hair color, and vehicle type. Altering appearance or vehicle could help evade capture. A stamina meter is visible during brawls, depleting with each punch and imposing movement penalties when empty. A blue stealth indicator arrow tracks police proximity, allowing for a stealthy gameplay approach. Players can enhance character traits, similar to Red Dead Redemption 2, with activities like sinking a basketball boosting the Focus attribute, likely tied to a slow-motion mechanic. The leaked map shows a car icon marked with a "J," indicating Lucia's location while navigating via boat or aircraft, and Jason's location elsewhere in Leonida. The map also hints at small racetracks throughout Leonida for racing and income generation. Jason's house is marked in the southern region of Leonida, specifically on one of the islands in the Keys. Speculation exists about an airport at the southernmost tip of the Keys potentially serving as a military base, possibly for stealing fighter jets.
