A full build of Grand Theft Auto VI is reportedly being shared around the notorious leaker group CYBERLEEK, and they could ruin Rockstar Games' November release window if demands over digital and physical copies of the title aren't met.
Over the last week, GTA VI gameplay has been leaked alongside a map and a wealth of new mechanics.
So far, the leaks have been much of a nothingness, showing glimpses of basketball throwing and driving - who'd have thought that was possible?
But the group behind the leaks, known as CYBERLEEK, has threatened to up the ante in what they will 'ruin' for Rockstar, such as the ending of Lucia's storyline and ultimately the entire campaign.

Now, the group has taken to a post on their website to reveal that the playable build that is available to them will be shared with the masses.
GTA 6 full builds could be leaked imminently
Just five days away from the gameplay reveal, and the entire build of Grand Theft Auto VI is threatening to leak early.
"CYBERLEEK has the build. It has had it for some time, and it no longer lives in one place," the group posted on its website.
"Copies sit on drives and servers spread across the globe, in places Take-Two cannot reach. There is nothing left to seize. There is no server to raid. There are only copies, and none of them take orders anymore."
Not only do they have the full game, but they are threatening to make it publicly available for all to enjoy.
"Silencing CYBERLEEK would accomplish less than nothing. If anything happens to it, if it ever misses a morning, the cancellations end on their own. Nobody has to press anything. The release simply stops being canceled, and within days, GTA 6 will be running on the personal computers of millions of gamers around the globe.
"Complete. Permanent. No refund. No patch. No alternative.
"Every day CYBERLEEK is left alone is another day the game stays buried. Rockstar’s best move is to tread lightly. This schedule has no end date. It resets every morning, forever. Tread lightly."

Why are they leaking GTA 6?
All of these leaks are in protest of Rockstar Games' decision not to produce a physical copy of GTA VI.
Having admitted that game discs are not in the plans, Rockstar will instead be simply giving players a code in a box as the 'physical' release.
The leaker group claims to have taken issue with this, demanding that physical copies are essential to game ownership and offline play, and that pre-orders shouldn't exist given that there are no benefits of getting the game early - a slightly archaic grudge to beat GTA VI with, as we've not queued outside of GameStop for a decade.
The threats of releasing the playable build will cease if Rockstar backtracks on its digital promises.
But if the developers stand by a disc-less future, we could have full builds of GTA VI available for download before the Netflix reveal next week.
