LeakedGTA VIfootage currently doing the rounds appears to confirm the return of a character we all assumed died back inGTA V.
All we really have is footage of fansrushing live TV showsto demand information, and theinfamous gameplay leaksfrom last summer which continue to pop up online despite Rockstar’s best efforts.

Here’s everything we know aboutGTA VIso far:
One leaked clip that recentlyresurfaced on Twitter(and has somehow yet to be taken down) doesn’t really show anything of note from a gameplay perspective, but itdoesspecifically mention a character we all say die inGTA V: Jay Norris, CEO of fictional social media company Lifeinvader.
In the leaked footage, an NPC can be heard saying anyone that uses Lifeinvader is risking Jay Norris downloading their brain so he can “sell it the Chinese”. Classic GTA-style dialogue right there, we love to see it. The only catch? Jay Norris is properly dead, since we blew his head off quite early on in a main story mission inGTA V. Subsequent references to the character inGTA Onlinego on to confirm that he definitely didn’t survive, too.

So what’s going on this footage? My first thought was that this was just a recycled line fromGTA V, since theGTA VIfootage is from an early build of the upcoming game. But after checking around, it looks like no such line exists inGTA V.
There’s a chanceGTA VIis either setbeforeor around the same time asGTA V, but I’m not entirely sure why they’d do that. The most likely scenario is that, since this NPC clearly believes in conspiracies, he’s probably convinced himself that Jay Norris faked his own death so he could more effectively steal brains to sell to foreign rivals.
Whatever the case, this small nugget ofGTA VIexudes the same brilliant writing and atmosphere as classic GTA, and that can only ever be a good thing.
