Some Grand Theft Auto 6 info allegedly resurfaced from an old 2016 leak regarding Red Dead Redemption 2, but it doesn't appear to be true. The Red Dead Redemption 2 leak came long before Rockstar had even begun teasing the western prequel and included tons of concrete info regarding characters, plot, and most substantially, almost the entire game's map. With that said, many assumed this GTA 6 leak was real, but it has since been debunked.
There has been no shortage of Grand Theft Auto 6 leaks over the last 8 years, but it won't be clear which ones have any truth to them until much closer to launch. Many rumors have pointed toward a return to Vice City, a fictionalized version of Miami, which would make sense given it's the only city Rockstar has yet to touch in its "HD era" of the series.
Medium user Tim McDowell wrote a pretty interesting deep dive into an old and authentic Red Dead Redemption 2 leak which highlighted all of the accuracies down to the protagonist's name, the map leak, and even details about the epilogue long before the game had been announced. McDowell went on to include images of 4Chan posts that also contained info about the next GTA such as the fact that GTA 6 will have a female protagonist, a male protagonist, and take place in both Florida and Cuba (likely Vice City). This information has been passed around since surfacing but was debunked by GTAForums member ADropInTheOcean and then McDowell edited the article, seemingly confirming the troll.
Why someone would go to the lengths of photoshopping fake 4Chan posts and make a rather extensive Medium post is a mystery. It seems like a lot of work for no real reward other than fooling some people, but some people just want to create chaos. As of right now, there's no word as to when Grand Theft Auto 6 will release, though many rumors indicate it'll be roughly 2023 or 2024, placing it a decade after Grand Theft Auto 5.
As fans grow more and more impatient and excited about Grand Theft Auto 6, it'll be important for fans to keep an eye out for fake leaks. Anything that's too good to be true or sounds like a wishlist is almost always a sign of a fake leak, even if Rockstar is known for going above and beyond in its games. Given this leak tried to pass itself off as legitimate by surrounding itself with a real Red Dead Redemption 2 leak, beware of similar efforts to combine fake info with real info.
